New American Standard Bible
Chapter 17
9
And the sons of Israel did things secretly against the
Lord
their God which were not right. Moreover, they built for themselves high places in all their towns, from watchtower to fortified city.
10
And they set up for themselves memorial stones and Asherim on every high hill and under every green tree,
11
and there they burned incense on all the high places as the nations
did
that the
Lord
had taken into exile before them; and they did evil things, provoking the
Lord
.
12
They served idols, concerning which the
Lord
had said to them, 'You shall not do this thing.'
13
Yet the
Lord
warned Israel and Judah through all His prophets
and
every seer, saying, 'Turn back from your evil ways and keep My commandments
and
My statutes in accordance with all the Law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you through My servants the prophets.'
King James Version
Chapter 17
9
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.
10
And they set them up images and groves in every high hill, and under every green tree:
11
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:
12
For they served idols, whereof the
Lord
had said unto them, Ye shall not do this thing.
13
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.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 17
9
The Israelites secretly did things against the
Lord
their God that were not right. They built high places in all their towns from watchtower to fortified city.
10
They set up for themselves sacred pillars and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree.
11
They burned incense there on all the high places just like the nations that the
Lord
had driven out before them had done. They did evil things, angering the
Lord
.
12
They served idols, although the
Lord
had told them, "You must not do this."
13
Still, the
Lord
warned Israel and Judah through every prophet and every seer, saying, "Turn from your evil ways and keep my commands and statutes according to the whole law I commanded your ancestors and sent to you through my servants the prophets."
New Living Translation
Chapter 17
9
The people of Israel had also secretly done many things that were not pleasing to the
Lord
their God. They built pagan shrines for themselves in all their towns, from the smallest outpost to the largest walled city.
10
They set up sacred pillars and Asherah poles at the top of every hill and under every green tree.
11
They offered sacrifices on all the hilltops, just like the nations the
Lord
had driven from the land ahead of them. So the people of Israel had done many evil things, arousing the
Lord
’s anger.
12
Yes, they worshiped idols, despite the
Lord
’s specific and repeated warnings.
13
Again and again the
Lord
had sent his prophets and seers to warn both Israel and Judah: 'Turn from all your evil ways. Obey my commands and decrees — the entire law that I commanded your ancestors to obey, and that I gave you through my servants the prophets.'
English Standard Version
Chapter 17
9
And the people of Israel did secretly against the
Lord
their God things that were not right. They built for themselves high places in all their towns, from watchtower to fortified city.
10
They set up for themselves pillars and Asherim on every high hill and under every green tree,
11
and there they made offerings on all the high places, as the nations did whom the
Lord
carried away before them. And they did wicked things, provoking the
Lord
to anger,
12
and they served idols, of which the
Lord
had said to them, "You shall not do this."
13
Yet the
Lord
warned Israel and Judah by every prophet and every seer, saying, "Turn from your evil ways and keep my commandments and my statutes, in accordance with all the Law that I commanded your fathers, and that I sent to you by my servants the prophets."
New International Version
Chapter 17
9
The Israelites secretly did things against the
Lord
their God that were not right. From watchtower to fortified city they built themselves high places in all their towns.
10
They set up sacred stones and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every spreading tree.
11
At every high place they burned incense, as the nations whom the
Lord
had driven out before them had done. They did wicked things that aroused the
Lord
’s anger.
12
They worshiped idols, though the
Lord
had said, "You shall not do this."
13
The
Lord
warned Israel and Judah through all his prophets and seers: "Turn from your evil ways. Observe my commands and decrees, in accordance with the entire Law that I commanded your ancestors to obey and that I delivered to you through my servants the prophets."
New King James Version
Chapter 17
9
Also the children of Israel secretly did against the
Lord
their God things that
were
not right, and they built for themselves high places in all their cities, from watchtower to fortified city.
10
They set up for themselves
sacred
pillars and wooden images on every high hill and under every green tree.
11
There they burned incense on all the high places, like the nations whom the
Lord
had carried away before them; and they did wicked things to provoke the
Lord
to anger,
12
for they served idols, of which the
Lord
had said to them, “You shall not do this thing.”
13
Yet the
Lord
testified against Israel and against Judah, by all of His prophets, 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.”
