Israel Rejects Yahweh
[7] Now [this] happened because the sons of Israel had sinned against Yahweh their God--who had brought them up from the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh, king of Egypt--and they had feared other gods
[8] and walked in the statutes of the nations whom Yahweh had dispossessed from before the sons of Israel, and [in the statutes] of the kings of Israel which they had made.
[2Ki 17:7-8 LSB]
Exiled Men in the Cities of Samaria
[41] So while these nations were fearing Yahweh, they also were serving their graven images; their children likewise and their grandchildren, as their fathers acted, so they are acting [this way] to this day.

Hezekiah Reigns over Judah
[3] And he did what was right in the sight of Yahweh, according to all that David his father had done. [4] He took away the high places and shattered the [sacred] pillars and cut down the Asherah. And he broke in pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made, for until those days the sons of Israel were burning incense to it; and it was called Nehushtan.
[2Ki 18:3-4 LSB]
[5] He trusted in Yahweh, the God of Israel; so that after him there was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [among those] who were before him.
[6] So he clung to Yahweh; he did not turn away from following Him, but kept His commandments, which Yahweh had commanded Moses.
[2Ki 18:5-6 LSB]
[7] "Blessed is the man who trusts in Yahweh And whose trust is Yahweh.[8] "And he will be like a tree planted by the water, That sends forth its roots by a stream And will not fear when the heat comes; But its leaves will be green, And it will not be anxious in a year of drought Nor refrain from yielding fruit.[Jer 17:7-8 LSB]
