*
They despised his statutes ,
and his covenant that he made with their fathers ,
and the warnings which he gave them .
They went after false idols ,
and became false ,
and they followed the nations that were round about them ,
concerning whom the LORD had commanded them that they should not do like them .
*
And they forsook all the commandments of the LORD their God ,
and made for themselves molten images of two calves ;
and they made an Ashe '
rah ,
and worshiped all the host of heaven ,
and served Ba '
al .
*
And they burned their sons and their daughters as offerings ,
and used divination and sorcery ,
and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD ,
provoking him to anger .
*
Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel ,
and removed them out of his sight ;
none was left but the tribe of Judah only .
*
Judah also did not keep the commandments of the LORD their God ,
but walked in the customs which Israel had introduced .
*
And the LORD rejected all the descendants of Israel ,
and afflicted them ,
and gave them into the hand of spoilers ,
until he had cast them out of his sight .
