2 Kings 17:20-22

International Children’s Bible

²⁰ So the Lord rejected all the people of Israel. He punished them and let people destroy them. He threw them out of his presence. ²¹ The Lord separated them from the family of David. And the Israelites made Jeroboam son of Nebat their king. Jeroboam led the Israelites away from following the Lord. He caused them to sin greatly. ²² So they continued to do all the sins Jeroboam did. They did not stop doing these sins
