ACV(i)
27 Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, Carry there one of the priests whom ye brought from there, and let them go and dwell there. And let him teach them the law of the god of the land.
28 So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelt in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear LORD.
29 However every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities wherein they dwelt.
30 And the men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
31 and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak. And the Sepharvites burnt their sons in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
32 So they were afraid of LORD, and made for them priests of the high places from among themselves, who sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places.
33 They were afraid of LORD, and served their own gods, after the manner of the nations from among whom they had been carried away.
