And you must always be careful to observe the statutes, ordinances, laws, and commandments He wrote for you. Do not worship other gods.
2 Kings 17:37, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
These words belong to the narrator's summary of the covenant the LORD made with Israel, spoken in the context of the northern kingdom's exile and the resettlement of Samaria by foreign peoples. The settlers worshiped the LORD alongside their own gods, and the chapter contrasts that mixed worship with the covenant's demand for exclusive loyalty.
