And they will go in the laws of the nations which Jehovah dispossessed from the face of the sons of Israel, and the kings of Israel which they made. And the sons of Israel will cover the words not thus concerning Jehovah their God, and they will build to them heights in all their cities from the tower of those watching even to the fortified city. And they will set to them statues and images upon every high hill, and under every green tree. And they will burn incense there in all the heights as the nations which Jehovah carried into exile from their face; and they will do evil words to irritate Jehovah: And they will serve blocks which Jehovah said to them, Ye shall not do this word. And Jehovah will testify in Israel and in Judah by the hand of all his prophets, all seeing, saying, Turn back from your evil ways and watch my commands, my laws according to all my instruction which I commanded your fathers, and which I Sent to you by the hand of my servants the prophets. And they heard not, and they will harden their neck as the neck Of their fathers who did not believe in Jehovah their God. And they will reject his laws and his covenant which he cut out with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified in them; and they will go after vanity, and they will be vain, and after the nations which were round about them which Jehovah commanded them not to do as they. And they will forsake all the commands of Jehovah their God, and make to them a molten thing, two Calves; and they will make images, and they will worship to all the army of the heavens, and serve Baal. And they will cause their sons and their daughters to pass through in fire, and divine divinations and enchantments, and they will be sold to do evil in the eyes of Jehovah to Irritate him. And Jehovah will be greatly angry against Israel, and he will remove them from his face: not to leave only the tribe of Judah alone. Also Judah watched not the commands of Jehovah their God, and they will go in the laws of Israel which they made. And Jehovah will reject in all the seed of Israel, and will afflict them, and he will give them into the hand of plunderers, till he cast them from his face. For he rent Israel from above the house of David; and they will make Jeroboam son of Nebat, king; and Jeroboam will thrust out Israel king after Jehovah, and he caused them to sin a great sin. And the sons of Israel will go in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they turned not away from them; Till Jehovah removed Israel from his face, as he spake by the hand of all his servants the prophets. And he will carry Israel into exile from his land to Assur, even to this day. And the king of Assur will come from Babel and from Cuthah, and from Ava, and from Hamath, and sepharvaim, and he will set in the cities of Shomeron instead of the sons of Israel: and they will possess Shomeron and dwell in her cities.

And the king of Assur will command, saying, Carry there one of the priests which ye brought from thence; and they shall go and dwell there, and he shall teach them the judgment of the God of the land. And one of the priests which they carried into exile from Shomeron will come and dwell in the house of God, and he will be teaching them how they shall fear Jehovah. And the nation, nation, will be making his gods, and will put in the house of the heights which the Samaritans made, nation, nation, in their cities which they dwell there. And the men of Babel made Succoth-Benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath, made Ashima. And the Avites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites were burning their sons in fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim. And they will be fearing Jehovah, and make to them priests of their ends upon the heights, and they will be doing to them in the houses of the heights. They were fearing Jehovah, and were serving their gods according to the judgment of the nations who carried them into exile from thence, Even to this day they are doing according to the former judgments: they not fearing Jehovah, and not doing according to their laws and according to their judgments and according to the instruction and according to the command which Jehovah commanded the sons of Jacob, whom he set his name Israel. And Jehovah cut out a covenant with them, and he commanded them, saying, Ye shall not fear other gods, and ye shall not worship to them, and ye shall not serve them, and ye shall not sacrifice to them. But Jehovah who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and with an extended arm, him shall ye fear, and to him shall ye worship, and to him shall ye sacrifice. And the laws and the judgments, and the instruction and command which he wrote for you, ye shall watch to do all the days; and ye shall not fear other gods And the covenant which I cut out with you ye shall not forget; and ye shall not fear other gods But Jehovah your God ye shall fear, and he shall deliver you from the hand of all your enemies. And they did not hearken, but! they were doing according to their former judgments. And these nations were fearing Jehovah and were serving their carved images, also their sons and their sons sons; as their fathers did, they are doing even to this day.

And the heart of the king of Aram will be agitated for this word; and he will call to his servants and say to them, Will ye not announce to me who is leading us astray to the king of Israel? And one of his servants will say, No, my lord the king; but Elisha the prophet, who is in Israel, will announce to the king of Israel the words which thou wilt speak in thy bed-chamber. And he will say, Go, and see where he is, and I will send and take him. And it will be announced to him, saying, Behold, in Dothan.

And Jehovah will open their eyes, and they will see; and behold, in the midst of Shomeron. And the king of Israel will say to Elisha when he saw them, Shall I strike? shall I strike, my father? And he will say, Thou shalt not strike: whom thou tookest captive with thy sword and with thy bow; strikest thou? set bread and water before them, and they shall eat and drink and go to their lord. And he will purchase for them a great purchase: and they will eat and drink, and he will send them, and they will go to their lord. And the troops of Aram will add no more to come into the land of Israel.
Samaria » Country of » Jesus travels through
And it was necessary for him to pass through Samaria. Then comes he to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near to the place which Jacob gave to Joseph his son. And Jacob's spring was there. Then Jesus, wearied with the journey, sat thus by the spring: it was about the sixth hour. A woman of Samaria comes to draw water: Jesus says to her, Give me to drink. (For his disciples were gone into the city that they might buy food.) Then says the Samaritan woman to him, How thou, being a Jew, askest of me to drink, being a Samaritan woman? for the Jews have no intercourse with the Samaritans. And Jesus answered and said to her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who he is saying to thee, Give me to drink: thou hadst asked him, and he had given thee living water. The woman says to him, Lord, thou hest no vessel for drawing, and the well is deep; whence then hast thou the living water? Thou art not greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and he himself drank of it, and his sons, and his young animals. Jesus answered and said to her, All drinking of this water shall thirst again: But whoever should drink of the water which I shall give him, shall never thirst; but the water which I shall give him shall be in him a spring of water springing up to eternal life. The woman says to him, Lord, give me this water, that I thirst not, nor come here to draw. Jesus says to her, Retire, call thy husband, and come here. The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus says to her, Thou sayest well, That I have no husband: For thou hadst five husbands; and now he whom thou hast is not thy husband: this thou saidst true. The woman says to him, Lord, I see that thou art a prophet. Our fathers worshipped in this mount; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where they must worship. Jesus says to her, Woman, believe me, that the hour comes, when neither in this mount, neither in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father. Ye worship what ye know not: we worship what we know: for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for also the Father seeks such worshipping him. God a Spirit: and they worshipping him must worship in spirit and truth. The woman says to him, I know that Messias comes, called Christ: when he should come, he will announce all things to us. Jesus says to her, I am he speaking to thee. And upon this his disciples came, and they wondered that he spake with the woman: yet none said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her? The woman then left her water buckets and departed to the city, and says to the men, Come, see a man, who told me all which I ever did: is not this Christ? Then went they forth out of the city, and came to him. And in the mean time the disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, eat. And he said to them, I have food to eat which ye know not. Then said the disciples to one another, Has any one brought him to eat? Jesus says to them, My food is that I might do the will of him having sent me, and finish his work. Say ye not, That there is yet the fourth month, and harvest comes? behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes, and behold the countries; for they are already white for harvest. And he reaping receives wages, and gathers fruit to eternal life: that he sowing might rejoice together and he reaping. For in this the word is true, That one is sowing, and another reaping. I sent you to reap that with which ye have not been wearied: some have been wearied, and others have come into their labor. And many of the Samaritans of that city believed in him for the woman's word testifying, That he told me all which I ever did. When therefore the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to remain with them: and he remained there two days. And many more believed on account of his word; And they said to the woman, That we no more believe for thy speaking: for we ourselves have heard and know, that this is truly Christ, the Saviour of the world.

And great joy was in that city. And a certain man, Simon by name, was before in the city using magic, and astonishing the nation of Samaria, saying himself to be somebody great: To whom attended from little to great, saying, This is the great power of God. And they attended to him, because for a sufficient time they were astonished by magics. And when they believed Philip announcing the good news of the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were immersed, both men and women. And Simon also himself believed: and having been immersed, he was persovering with Philip, beholding the signs and great powers having been, they were astonished. And the sent in Jerusalem having heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent them Peter and John: Who, having gone down, prayed for them, that they receive the Holy Spirit (For not yet was it fallen upon any of them: only they were immersed into the name of the Lord Jesus.) Then put they hands upon them, and they received the Holy Spirit. And Simon having seen that by putting on of hands of the sent the Holy Spirit is given, he brought money to them, Saying, Give me also this power, that upon whomsoever I put hands, he might receive the Holy Spirit. And Peter said to him, May thy silver be for ruin with thee, for thou thoughtest the gift of God to be purchased for money. No portion is to thee, nor lot, in this word: for thy heart is not upright before God. Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray to God, if perhaps the thought of thy heart be remitted to thee. For I see thee being in the bile of bitterness, and bond of iniquity. And Simon having answered, said, Pray ye to the Lord for me, that nothing which ye have spoken come upon me. Truly therefore, they having testified and spoken the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and announced good news to many towns of the Samaritans.
