2 Kings 17:12-14

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹² And they served idols, of which the Lord had said to them, You shall not do this thing.

¹³ Yet the Lord warned Israel and Judah through all the prophets and all the seers, saying, Turn from your evil ways and keep My commandments and My statutes, according to all the Law which I commanded your fathers and which I sent to you by My servants the prophets.

¹⁴ Yet they would not hear, but hardened their necks as did their fathers who did not believe (trust in, rely on, and remain steadfast to) the Lord their God.
