Until the LORD removed Israel out of his sight, as he had said by all his servants the prophets. So was Israel carried away out of their own land to Assyria unto this day.

Verse 23 is found in chapter 17 of 2 Kings. Judah is not excluded from the evaluation, because the narrator states that it followed the same paths as Israel. The deportation of the northern kingdom fulfills the warnings the Lord had spoken through his prophets. The section emphasizes the stability of the divine word amid the instability of monarchies. Kings change, dynasties disappear, and territories are conquered, but prophetic warnings remain. The reader is prepared to observe Judah’s history with the same question: will it learn from Israel’s fate or repeat its trajectory?

bis der HERR Israel von seinem Angesicht tat, wie er geredet hatte durch alle seine Knechte, die Propheten. Also ward Israel aus seinem Lande weggeführt nach Assyrien bis auf diesen Tag.
Hasta tanto que Jehová quitó a Israel de delante de su rostro, como lo había él dicho por mano de todos los profetas sus siervos: e Israel fue trasportado de su tierra a Asiria, hasta hoy.
hasta que Jehová apartó a Israel de su presencia, como había dicho por medio de todos sus siervos los profetas. Israel fue deportado de su tierra a Asiria, donde permanece hasta el día de hoy.
jusqu'à ce que l'Eternel eût chassé Israël loin de sa face, comme il l'avait annoncé par tous ses serviteurs les prophètes. Et Israël a été emmené captif loin de son pays en Assyrie, où il est resté jusqu'à ce jour.
intanto che il Signore tolse via Israele dal suo cospetto, siccome ne avea parlato per tutti i profeti, suoi servitori; ed Israele fu menato in cattività d’in su la sua terra in Assiria, ove è stato infino ad oggi
Até que o SENHOR tirou a Israel de diante da sua presença, como falara pelo ministério de todos os seus servos, os profetas; assim foi Israel expulso da sua terra à Assíria até ao dia de hoje.
以致耶和華把他們從自己面前趕出去,正如他藉他僕人眾先知所說的。這樣, 以色列 人從自己的土地被擄到 亞述 ,直到今日。
