Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who made Israel sin, but walked therein: and there remained the grove also in Samaria.)
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 6 is found in chapter 13 of 2 Kings. Jehoahaz reigns over Israel during a period in which Hazael oppresses the kingdom. The text states that Jehoahaz seeks the Lord and that the Lord hears his plea, although the sinful structure inherited from Jeroboam remains. The tension is significant: God responds mercifully to the king’s distress, but there is no complete reform of the religious system. Israel receives temporary relief and retains part of its territory, although it remains militarily weakened. The passage presents both judgment for unfaithfulness and mercy in response to affliction.

Doch sie ließen nicht von der Sünde des Hauses Jerobeams, der Israel sündigen machte, sondern wandelten darin. Auch blieb stehen das Ascherabild zu Samaria.
Con todo eso no se apartaron de los pecados de la casa de Jeroboam, el que hizo pecar a Israel: en ellos anduvieron; y también el bosque permaneció en Samaria.)
Sin embargo, no se apartaron de los pecados de la casa de Jeroboam, con los que había hecho pecar a Israel, sino que siguieron en ellos. También el poste de Asera permaneció en Samaria.
Mais ils ne se détournèrent point des péchés de la maison de Jéroboam, qui avait fait pécher Israël; ils s'y livrèrent aussi, et même l'idole d'Astarté était debout à Samarie.
Ma pur non si rivolsero dai peccati della casa di Geroboamo, coi quali egli avea fatto peccare Israele; Israele camminava in essi; il bosco eziandio rimase in piè in Samaria.
(Contudo não se apartaram dos pecados da casa de Jeroboão, com que fez Israel pecar; porém ele andou neles e também o bosque ficou em pé em Samaria).
然而他們不離開 耶羅波安 家使 以色列 陷入罪裏的那罪,仍行在罪中,並且在 撒瑪利亞 留下 亞舍拉 。
