13 Yet the Lord (A)warned Israel and Judah (B)by every prophet (C)and every seer, saying, (D)“Turn from your evil ways and keep my commandments and my statutes, in accordance with all the Law that I commanded your fathers, and that I sent to you by my servants the prophets.”

14 But they would not listen, (E)but were stubborn, as their fathers had been, who did not believe in the Lord their God. 15 They despised his statutes (F)and his covenant that he made with their fathers and the warnings that he gave them. They went after (G)false idols (H)and became false, and they followed the nations that were around them, concerning whom the (I)Lord had commanded them that they should not do like them. 16 And they abandoned all the commandments of the Lord their God, and made for themselves metal images of (J)two calves; and they (K)made an Asherah and (L)worshiped all the host of heaven and served (M)Baal. 17 (N)And they burned their sons and their daughters as offerings[a] and used (O)divination and (P)omens and (Q)sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the Lord, provoking him to anger. 18 Therefore the Lord was very angry with Israel and removed them out of his sight. None was left but (R)the tribe of Judah only.

19 (S)Judah also did not keep the commandments of the Lord their God, but walked in the customs that Israel had introduced. 20 And the Lord rejected all the descendants of Israel and afflicted them (T)and gave them into the hand of plunderers, until he had cast them out of his sight.

21 (U)When he had torn Israel from the house of David, (V)they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king. And Jeroboam drove Israel from following the Lord (W)and made them commit great sin. 22 The people of Israel walked in all the sins that Jeroboam did. They did not depart from them, 23 until the Lord removed Israel out of his sight, (X)as he had spoken by all his servants the prophets. (Y)So Israel was exiled from their own land to Assyria until this day.
