2 Kings 17:12-14

Easy-to-Read Version

¹² They served idols, and the Lord had said to them, “You must not do this.”

¹³ The Lord used every prophet and every seer to warn Israel and Judah. He said, “Turn away from the evil things you do. Obey my commands and laws. Follow all the law that I gave to your ancestors. I used my servants the prophets to give this law to you.”

¹⁴ But the people would not listen. They were very stubborn like their ancestors. Their ancestors did not believe the Lord their God.
