- In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah began Hoshea the son of Elah to reign in Samaria over Israel, [and reigned] nine years.
- He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, yet not as the kings of Israel who were before him.
- Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria; and Hoshea became his servant, and brought him tribute.
- The king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea; for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and offered no tribute to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year: therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison.
- Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years.
- In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away to Assyria, and placed them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
- It was so, because the children of Israel had sinned against Yahweh their God, who brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,
- and walked in the statutes of the nations, whom Yahweh cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they made.
- The children of Israel did secretly things that were not right against Yahweh their God: and they built them high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city;
- and they set them up pillars and Asherim on every high hill, and under every green tree;
- and there they burnt incense in all the high places, as did the nations whom Yahweh carried away before them; and they worked wicked things to provoke Yahweh to anger;
- and they served idols, of which Yahweh had said to them, "You shall not do this thing."
- Yet Yahweh testified to Israel, and to Judah, by every prophet, and every seer, saying, "Turn 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 listen, but hardened their neck, like the neck of their fathers, who didn't believe in Yahweh their God.
- They rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified to them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and [went] after the nations that were around them, concerning whom Yahweh had commanded them that they should not do like them.
- They forsook all the commandments of Yahweh their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made an Asherah, and worshiped all the army of the sky, and served Baal.
- They caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, to provoke him to anger.
- Therefore Yahweh was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only.
- Also Judah didn't keep the commandments of Yahweh their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.
- Yahweh rejected all the seed of Israel, and afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of spoilers, until he had cast them out of his sight.
- For he tore Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king: and Jeroboam drove Israel from following Yahweh, and made them sin a great sin.
- The children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they didn't depart from them;
- until Yahweh removed Israel out of his sight, as he spoke by all his servants the prophets. So Israel was carried away out of their own land to Assyria to this day.
- The king of Assyria brought men from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and from Avva, and from Hamath and Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel; and they possessed Samaria, and lived in the cities of it.
- So it was, at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they didn't fear Yahweh: therefore Yahweh sent lions among them, which killed some of them.
- Therefore they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, "The nations which you have carried away, and placed in the cities of Samaria, don't know the law of the god of the land. Therefore he has sent lions among them, and behold, they kill them, because they don't know the law of the god of the land."
- Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, "Carry there one of the priests whom you brought from there; and let them go and dwell there, and let him teach them the law of the god of the land."
- So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and lived in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear Yahweh.
- However every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities in which they lived.
- The men of Babylon made Succoth Benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
- and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak; and the Sepharvites burnt their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
- So they feared Yahweh, and made to them from among themselves priests of the high places, who sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places.
- They feared Yahweh, and served their own gods, after the ways of the nations from among whom they had been carried away.
- To this day they do what they did before: they don't fear Yahweh, neither do they follow their statutes, or their ordinances, or the law or the commandment which Yahweh commanded the children of Jacob, whom he named Israel;
- with whom Yahweh had made a covenant, and commanded them, saying, "You shall not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them;
- but you shall fear Yahweh, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and with an outstretched arm, and you shall bow yourselves to him, and you shall sacrifice to him.
- The statutes and the ordinances, and the law and the commandment, which he wrote for you, you shall observe to do forevermore. You shall not fear other gods.
- You shall not forget the covenant that I have made with you; neither shall you fear other gods.
- But you shall fear Yahweh your God; and he will deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies."
- However they did not listen, but they did what they did before.
- So these nations feared Yahweh, and served their engraved images. Their children likewise, and their children's children, as their fathers did, so they do to this day.

- בשנת שתים עשרה לאחז מלך יהודה מלך הושע בן־אלה בשמרון על־ישראל תשע שנים׃
- ויעש הרע בעיני יהוה רק לא כמלכי ישראל אשר היו לפניו׃
- עליו עלה שלמנאסר מלך אשור ויהי־לו הושע עבד וישב לו מנחה׃
- וימצא מלך־אשור בהושע קשר אשר שלח מלאכים אל־סוא מלך־מצרים ולא־העלה מנחה למלך אשור כשנה בשנה ויעצרהו מלך אשור ויאסרהו בית כלא׃
- ויעל מלך־אשור בכל־הארץ ויעל שמרון ויצר עליה שלש שנים׃
- בשנת התשיעית להושע לכד מלך־אשור את־שמרון ויגל את־ישראל אשורה וישב אתם בחלח ובחבור נהר גוזן וערי מדי׃ ף
- ויהי כי־חטאו בני־ישראל ליהוה אלהיהם המעלה אתם מארץ מצרים מתחת יד פרעה מלך־מצרים וייראו אלהים אחרים׃
- וילכו בחקות הגוים אשר הוריש יהוה מפני בני ישראל ומלכי ישראל אשר עשו׃
- ויחפאו בני־ישראל דברים אשר לא־כן על־יהוה אלהיהם ויבנו להם במות בכל־עריהם ממגדל נוצרים עד־עיר מבצר׃
- ויצבו להם מצבות ואשרים על כל־גבעה גבהה ותחת כל־עץ רעןן׃
- ויקטרו־שם בכל־במות כגוים אשר־הגלה יהוה מפניהם ויעשו דברים רעים להכעיס את־יהוה׃
- ויעבדו הגללים אשר אמר יהוה להם לא תעשו את־הדבר הזה׃
- ויעד יהוה בישראל וביהודה ביד כל־ כל־חזה לאמר שבו מדרכיכם הרעים ושמרו מצותי חקותי ככל־התורה אשר צויתי את־אבתיכם ואשר שלחתי אליכם ביד עבדי הנביאים׃
- ולא שמעו ויקשו את־ערפם כערף אבותם אשר לא האמינו ביהוה אלהיהם׃
- וימאסו את־חקיו ואת־בריתו אשר כרת את־אבותם ואת עדותיו אשר העיד בם וילכו אחרי ההבל ויהבלו ואחרי הגוים אשר סביבתם אשר צוה יהוה אתם לבלתי עשות כהם׃
- ויעזבו את־כל־מצות יהוה אלהיהם ויעשו להם מסכה עגלים ויעשו אשירה וישתחוו לכל־צבא השמים ויעבדו את־הבעל׃
- ויעבירו את־בניהם ואת־בנותיהם באש ויקסמו קסמים וינחשו ויתמכרו לעשות הרע בעיני יהוה להכעיסו׃
- ויתאנף יהוה מאד בישראל ויסרם מעל פניו לא נשאר רק שבט יהודה לבדו׃
- גם־יהודה לא שמר את־מצות יהוה אלהיהם וילכו בחקות ישראל אשר עשו׃
- וימאס יהוה בכל־זרע ישראל ויענם ויתנם ביד־שסים עד אשר השליכם מפניו׃
- כי־קרע ישראל מעל בית דוד וימליכו את־ירבעם בן־נבט ירבעם את־ישראל מאחרי יהוה והחטיאם חטאה גדולה׃
- וילכו בני ישראל בכל־חטאות ירבעם אשר עשה לא־סרו ממנה׃
- עד אשר־הסיר יהוה את־ישראל מעל פניו כאשר דבר ביד כל־עבדיו הנביאים ויגל ישראל מעל אדמתו אשורה עד היום הזה׃ ף
- ויבא מלך־אשור מבבל ומכותה ומעוא ומחמת וספרוים וישב בערי שמרון תחת בני ישראל וירשו את־שמרון וישבו בעריה׃
- ויהי בתחלת שבתם שם לא יראו את־יהוה וישלח יהוה בהם את־האריות ויהיו הרגים בהם׃
- ויאמרו למלך אשור לאמר הגוים אשר הגלית ותושב בערי שמרון לא ידעו את־משפט אלהי הארץ וישלח־בם את־האריות והנם ממיתים אותם כאשר אינם ידעים את־משפט אלהי הארץ׃
- ויצו מלך־אשור לאמר הליכו שמה אחד מהכהנים אשר הגליתם משם וילכו וישבו שם וירם את־משפט אלהי הארץ׃
- ויבא אחד מהכהנים אשר הגלו משמרון וישב בבית־אל ויהי מורה אתם איך ייראו את־יהוה׃
- ויהיו עשים גוי גוי אלהיו ויניחו בבית הבמות אשר עשו השמרנים גוי גוי בעריהם אשר הם ישבים שם׃
- ואנשי בבל עשו את־סכות בנות ואנשי־כות עשו את־נרגל ואנשי חמת עשו את־אשימא׃
- והעוים עשו נבחז ואת־תרתק והספרוים שרפים את־בניהם באש לאדרמלך וענמלך ׃
- ויהיו יראים את־יהוה ויעשו להם מקצותם כהני במות ויהיו עשים להם בבית הבמות׃
- את־יהוה היו יראים ואת־אלהיהם היו עבדים כמשפט הגוים אשר־הגלו אתם משם׃
- עד היום הזה הם עשים כמשפטים הראשנים אינם יראים את־יהוה ואינם עשים כחקתם וכמשפטם וכתורה וכמצוה אשר צוה יהוה את־בני יעקב אשר־שם שמו ישראל׃
- ויכרת יהוה אתם ברית ויצום לאמר לא תיראו אלהים אחרים ולא־תשתחוו להם ולא תעבדום ולא תזבחו להם׃
- כי אם־את־יהוה אשר העלה אתכם מארץ מצרים בכח גדול ובזרוע נטויה אתו תיראו ולו תשתחוו ולו תזבחו׃
- ואת־החקים ואת־המשפטים והתורה והמצוה אשר כתב לכם תשמרון לעשות כל־הימים ולא תיראו אלהים אחרים׃
- והברית אשר־כרתי אתכם לא תשכחו ולא תיראו אלהים אחרים׃
- כי אם־את־יהוה אלהיכם תיראו והוא יציל אתכם מיד כל־איביכם׃
- ולא שמעו כי אם־כמשפטם הראשון הם עשים׃
- ויהיו הגוים האלה יראים את־יהוה ואת־פסיליהם היו עבדים גם־בניהם ובני בניהם כאשר עשו אבתם הם עשים עד היום הזה׃ ף

- Anno duodecimo Achaz regis Juda, regnavit Osee filius Ela in Samaria super Israël novem annis.
- Fecitque malum coram Domino : sed non sicut reges Israël, qui ante eum fuerant.
- Contra hunc ascendit Salmanasar rex Assyriorum, et factus est ei Osee servus, reddebatque illi tributa.
- Cumque deprehendisset rex Assyriorum Osee, quod rebellare nitens misisset nuntios ad Sua regem Ægypti, ne præstaret tributa regi Assyriorum sicut singulis annis solitus erat, obsedit eum, et vinctum misit in carcerem.
- Pervagatusque est omnem terram : et ascendens Samariam, obsedit eam tribus annis.
- Anno autem nono Osee, cepit rex Assyriorum Samariam, et transtulit Israël in Assyrios : posuique eos in Hala, et in Habor juxta fluvium Gozan, in civitatibus Medorum.
- Factum est enim, cum peccassent filii Israël Domino Deo suo, qui eduxerat eos de terra Ægypti, de manu Pharaonis regis Ægypti, coluerunt deos alienos.
- Et ambulaverunt juxta ritum gentium, quas consumpserat Dominus in conspectu filiorum Israël, et regum Israël, quia similiter fecerant.
- Et offenderunt filii Israël verbis non rectis Dominum Deum suum : et ædificaverunt sibi excelsa in cunctis urbibus suis a turre custodum usque ad civitatem munitam.
- Feceruntque sibi statuas, et lucos in omni colle sublimi, et subter omne lignum nemorosum :
- et adolebant ibi incensum super aras in morem gentium, quas transtulerat Dominus a facie eorum : feceruntque verba pessima irritantes Dominum.
- Et coluerunt immunditias, de quibus præcepit eis Dominus ne facerent verbum hoc.
- Et testificatus est Dominus in Israël et in Juda per manum omnium prophetarum et videntium, dicens : Revertimini a viis vestris pessimis, et custodite præcepta mea, et cæremonias juxta omnem legem, quam præcepi patribus vestris : et sicut misi ad vos in manu servorum meorum prophetarum.
- Qui non audierunt, sed induraverunt cervicem suam juxta cervicem patrum suorum, qui noluerunt obedire Domino Deo suo.
- Et abjecerunt legitima ejus, et pactum, quod pepigit cum patribus eorum, et testificationes, quibus contestatus est eos : secutique sunt vanitates, et vane egerunt : et secuti sunt gentes, quæ erant per circuitum eorum, super quibus præceperat Dominus eis ut non facerent sicut et illæ faciebant.
- Et dereliquerunt omnia præcepta Domini Dei sui : feceruntque sibi conflatiles duos vitulos, et lucos, et adoraverunt universam militiam cæli : servieruntque Baal,
- et consecraverunt filios suos, et filias suas per ignem : et divinationibus inserviebant, et auguriis : et tradiderunt se ut facerent malum coram Domino, ut irritarent eum.
- Iratusque est Dominus vehementer Israëli, et abstulit eos a conspectu suo, et non remansit nisi tribus Juda tantummodo.
- Sed nec ipse Juda custodivit mandata Domini Dei sui : verum ambulavit in erroribus Israël, quos operatus fuerat.
- Projecitque Dominus omne semen Israël, et afflixit eos, et tradidit eos in manu diripientium, donec projiceret eos a facie sua :
- ex eo jam tempore, quo scissus est Israël a domo David, et consituerunt sibi regem Jeroboam filium Nabat, separavit enim Jeroboam Israël a Domino, et peccare eos fecit peccatum magnum.
- Et ambulaverunt filii Israël in universis peccatis Jeroboam quæ fecerat : et non recesserunt ab eis,
- usquequo Dominus auferret Israël a facie sua, sicut locutus fuerat in manu omnium servorum suorum prophetarum : translatusque est Israël de terra sua in Assyrios, usque in diem hanc.
- Adduxit autem rex Assyriorum de Babylone, et de Cutha, et de Avah, et de Emath, et de Sepharvaim : et collocavit eos in civitatibus Samariæ pro filiis Israël : qui possederunt Samariam, et habitaverunt in urbibus ejus.
- Cumque ibi habitare cœpissent, non timebant Dominum : et immisit in eos Dominus leones, qui interficiebant eos.
- Nuntiatumque est regi Assyriorum, et dictum : Gentes, quas transtulisti, et habitare fecisti in civitatibus Samriæ, ignorant legitima Dei terræ : et immisit in eos Dominus leones, et ecce interficiunt eos, eo quod ignorent ritum Dei terræ.
- Præcepit autem rex Assyriorum, dicens : Ducite illuc unum de sacerdotibus, quos inde captivos adduxistis, et vadat, et habitet cum eis : et doceat eos legitima Dei terræ.
- Igitur cum venisset unus de sacerdotibus his, qui captivi ducti fuerant de Samaria, habitavit in Bethel, et docebat eos quomodo colerent Dominum.
- Et unaquæque gens fabricata est deum suum : posueruntque eos in fanis excelsis, quæ fecerant Samaritæ, gens et gens in urbibus suis, in quibus habitabat.
- Viri enim Babylonii fecerunt Sochothbenoth : viri autem Cuthæi fecerunt Nergel : et viri de Emath fecerunt Asima.
- Porro Hevæi fecerunt Nebahaz et Tharthac. Hi autem qui erant de Sepharvaim, comburebant filios suos igni, Adramelech et Anamlech diis Sepharvaim,
- et nihilominus colebant Dominum. Fecerunt autem sibi de novissimis sacerdotes excelsorum, et ponebant eos in fanis sublimibus.
- Et cum Dominum colerent, diis quoque suis serviebant juxta consuetudinem gentium, de quibus translati fuerant Samariam.
- Usque in præsentem diem morem sequuntur antiquum : non timent Dominum, neque custodiunt cæremonias ejus, judicia, et legem, et mandatum, quod præceperat Dominus filiis Jacob, quem cognominavit Israël :
- et percusserat cum eis pactum, et mandaverat eis, dicens : Nolite timere deos alienos, et non adoretis eos, neque colatis eos, et non immoletis eis :
- sed Dominum Deum vestrum, qui eduxit vos de terra Ægypti in fortitudine magna, et in brachio extento, ipsum timete, et illum adorate, et ipsi immolate.
- Cæremonias quoque, et judicia, et legem, et mandatum, quod scripsit vobis, custodite ut faciatis cunctis diebus : et non timeatis deos alienos.
- Et pactum quod percussit vobiscum, nolite oblivisci : nec colatis deos alienos,
- sed Dominum Deum vestrum timete, et ipse eruet vos de manu omnium inimicorum vestrorum.
- Illi vero non audierunt, sed juxta consuetudinem suam pristinam perpetrabant.
- Fuerunt igitur gentes istæ timentes quidem Dominum, sed nihilominus et idolis suis servientes : nam et filii eorum, et nepotes, sicut fecerunt patres sui, ita faciunt usque in præsentem diem.

- In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah began Hoshea the son of Elah to reign in Samaria over Israel nine years.
- And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, but not as the kings of Israel that were before him.
- Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria; and Hoshea became his servant, and gave him presents.
- And the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea: for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and brought no present to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year: therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison.
- Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years.
- In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
- For so it was, that the children of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, which had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharoah king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,
- And walked in the statutes of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they had made.
- And the children of Israel did secretly those things that were not right against the LORD their God, and they built them high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.
- And they set them up images and groves in every high hill, and under every green tree:
- And there they burnt incense in all the high places, as did the heathen whom the LORD carried away before them; and wrought wicked things to provoke the LORD to anger:
- For they served idols, whereof the LORD had said unto them, Ye shall not do this thing.
- Yet the LORD testified against Israel, 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.
- 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, and removed them out of his sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only.
- Also Judah kept not the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.
- And the LORD rejected all the seed of Israel, and afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of spoilers, until he had cast them out of his sight.
- For he rent Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king: and Jeroboam drave Israel from following the LORD, and made them sin a great sin.
- For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they departed not from them;
- Until the LORD removed Israel out of his sight, as he had said by all his servants the prophets. So was Israel carried away out of their own land to Assyria unto this day.
- And the king of Assyria brought men from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and from Ava, and from Hamath, and from Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel: and they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.
- And so it was at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they feared not the LORD: therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which slew some of them.
- Wherefore they spake to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which thou hast removed, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the manner of the God of the land: therefore he hath sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, because they know not the manner of the God of the land.
- Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, Carry thither one of the priests whom ye brought from thence; and let them go and dwell there, and let him teach them the manner of the God of the land.
- Then one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelt in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear the LORD.
- Howbeit every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities wherein they dwelt.
- And the men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
- And the Avites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites burnt their children in fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
- So they feared the LORD, and made unto themselves of the lowest of them priests of the high places, which sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places.
- They feared the LORD, and served their own gods, after the manner of the nations whom they carried away from thence.
- Unto this day they do after the former manners: they fear not the LORD, neither do they after their statutes, or after their ordinances, or after the law and commandment which the LORD commanded the children of Jacob, whom he named Israel;
- With whom the LORD had made a covenant, and charged them saying, Ye shall not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them:
- But the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and a stretched out arm, him shall ye fear, and him shall ye worship, and to him shall ye do sacrifice.
- And the statutes, and the ordinances, and the law, and the commandment, which he wrote for you, ye shall observe to do for evermore; and ye shall not fear other gods.
- And the covenant that I have made with you ye shall not forget; neither shall ye fear other gods.
- But the LORD your God ye shall fear; and he shall deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.
- Howbeit they did not hearken, but they did after their former manner.
- So these nations feared the LORD, and served their graven images, both their children, and their children's children: as did their fathers, so do they unto this day.
