He placed them in Halah, on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.(A)
7 This occurred because the people of Israel had sinned against the Lord their God, who had brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. They had worshiped other gods(B)
