2 Kings 17:5-8
New International Version
5 The king of Assyria invaded the entire land, marched against Samaria and laid siege(A) to it for three years. 6 In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria(B) captured Samaria(C) and deported(D) the Israelites to Assyria. He settled them in Halah, in Gozan(E) on the Habor River and in the towns of the Medes.
Israel Exiled Because of Sin
7 All this took place because the Israelites had sinned(F) against the Lord their God, who had brought them up out of Egypt(G) from under the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt. They worshiped other gods 8 and followed the practices of the nations(H) the Lord had driven out before them, as well as the practices that the kings of Israel had introduced.
