2 Kings 17:12 in Context — 2 Kings 17
10 Y se levantasen estatuas y bosques en todo collado alto, y debajo de todo árbol umbroso,
11 Y quemasen allí perfumes en todos los altos, á la manera de las gentes que había Jehová traspuesto delante de ellos, é hiciesen cosas muy malas para provocar á ira á Jehová,
12 Pues servían á los ídolos, de los cuales Jehová les había dicho: Vosotros no habéis de hacer esto;
13 Jehová protestaba entonces contra Israel y contra Judá, por mano de todos los profetas, y de todos los videntes, diciendo: Volveos de vuestros malos caminos, y guardad mis mandamientos y mis ordenanzas, conforme á todas las leyes que yo prescribí á vuestros padres, y que os he enviado por mano de mis siervos los profetas.
14 Mas ellos no obedecieron, antes endurecieron su cerviz, como la cerviz de sus padres, los cuales no creyeron en Jehová su Dios.
