*
Yet the LORD testified against Israel Yisra #
el #,
and against Judah ,
by all the prophets ,
and by all the seers ,
saying ,
Turn ye from your evil ways ,
and keep my commandments and my statutes ,
according to all the law which I commanded your fathers ,
and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets .
*
Notwithstanding they would not hear ,
but hardened their necks ,
like to the neck of their fathers ,
that did not believe in the LORD their God .
*
And they rejected his statutes ,
and his covenant that he made with their fathers ,
and his testimonies which he testified against them ;
and they followed vanity ,
and became vain ,
and went after the heathen that were round about them ,
concerning whom the LORD had charged them ,
that they should not do like them .
*
And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God ,
and made them molten images ,
even two calves ,
and made a grove ,
and worshipped all the host of heaven ,
and served Baal Ba #
al #.
*
And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire ,
and used divination and enchantments ,
and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD ,
to provoke him to anger .
*
Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel Yisra #
el #,
and removed them out of his sight :
there was none left but the tribe of Judah only .
