2 Kings 17:24 in Context — 2 Kings 17

22 E os filhos de Israel andaram em todos os pecados de Jeroboão que ele fez, sem desviar-se deles;

23 Até que o SENHOR tirou a Israel de diante de seu rosto, como o havia ele dito por meio de todos os profetas seus servos: e Israel foi transportado de sua terra à Assíria, até hoje.

24 E trouxe o rei da Assíria gente de Babilônia, e de Cuta, e de Hava, e de Hamate, e de Sefarvaim, e os pôs nas cidades de Samaria, em lugar dos filhos de Israel; e possuíram a Samaria, e habitaram em suas cidades.

25 E aconteceu ao princípio, quando começaram a habitar ali, que não temendo eles ao SENHOR, enviou o SENHOR contra eles leões que os matavam.

26 Então disseram eles ao rei da Assíria: As nações que tu transportaste e puseste nas cidades de Samaria, não sabem a costume do Deus daquela terra, e ele lançou leões neles, e eis que os matam, porque não sabem a costume do Deus da terra.
