Melachim Bais 17:12-14

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹² For they served the gillulim (idols), whereof Hashem had said unto them, Ye shall not do this thing.

¹³ Yet Hashem testified warnings against Yisroel, and against Yehudah, by all the nevi’im, and by all the khozer (seers), saying, Turn ye from your derakhim hara’im and be shomer over My mitzvot and My chukkot, according to all the torah which I commanded your Avoteichem, and which I sent to you by My avadim the Nevi’im.

¹⁴ Notwithstanding they would not listen, but stubbornly stiffened their necks, like the neck of their avot, that did not believe in Hashem Eloheihem.
