2 Kings 17:12-14

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹² They served idols, ^(A)concerning which the Lord had said to them, “You shall not do this thing.” ¹³ Yet the ^(B)Lord warned Israel and Judah ^(C)through all His prophets and ^(D)every seer, saying, “^(E)Turn from your evil ways and keep My commandments, My statutes according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you through My servants the prophets.” ¹⁴ However, they did not listen, but ^(F)stiffened their neck ^[a]like their fathers, who did not believe in the Lord their God.
