2nd Kings 17:39

35 and Jehovah maketh with them a covenant, and chargeth them, saying, `Ye do not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them,

36 but Jehovah who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a stretched-out arm, Him ye do fear, and to Him ye bow yourselves, and to Him ye do sacrifice;

37 and the statutes, and the judgments, and the law, and the command, that He wrote for you, ye observe to do all the days, and ye do not fear other gods;

38 and the covenant that I have made with you ye do not forget, and ye do not fear other gods;

39 but Jehovah your God ye do fear, and He doth deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies;`

40 and they have not hearkened, but according to their former custom they are doing,

41 and these nations are fearing Jehovah, and their graven images they have served, both their sons and their sons` sons; as their fathers did, they are doing unto this day.
