2 Kings 17:11 in Context — 2 Kings 17

9 Les enfants d’Israël firent en secret contre l’Éternel, leur Dieu, des choses qui ne sont pas bien. Ils se bâtirent des hauts lieux dans toutes leurs villes, depuis les tours des gardes jusqu’aux villes fortes.

10 Ils se dressèrent des statues et des idoles sur toute colline élevée et sous tout arbre vert.

11 Et là ils brûlèrent des parfums sur tous les hauts lieux, comme les nations que l’Éternel avait chassées devant eux, et ils firent des choses mauvaises, par lesquelles ils irritèrent l’Éternel.

12 Ils servirent les idoles dont l’Éternel leur avait dit: Vous ne ferez pas cela.

13 L’Éternel fit avertir Israël et Juda par tous ses prophètes, par tous les voyants, et leur dit: Revenez de vos mauvaises voies, et observez mes commandements et mes ordonnances, en suivant entièrement la loi que j’ai prescrite à vos pères et que je vous ai envoyée par mes serviteurs les prophètes.
