2 Kings 17:39-41

Lexham English Bible

³⁹ But Yahweh your God you shall fear, and he will deliver you from the hand of all of your enemies.” ⁴⁰ They did not listen but kept on doing according to their former customs. ⁴¹ So these nations were fearing Yahweh, but they were serving their idols, as were their children and their children’s children; as their ancestors^[a] did, they are doing until this day.
