1 2Kr 17, 1 In the twelfth year of Ahaz, the king of Judah: Hoshea, the son of Elah, reigned over Israel, in Samaria, for nine years. 2 2Kr 17, 2 And he did evil before the Lord, but not like the kings of Israel who had been before him. 3 2Kr 17, 3 Shalmaneser, the king of the Assyrians, ascended against him. And Hoshea became a servant to him, and he paid him tribute. 4 2Kr 17, 4 And when the king of the Assyrians discovered that Hoshea, striving to rebel, had sent messengers to Sais, to the king of Egypt, so as not to present the tribute to the king of the Assyrians, as he had been accustomed to do each year, he besieged him. And having been bound, he cast him into prison. 5 2Kr 17, 5 And he wandered through the entire land. And ascending to Samaria, he besieged it for three years. 6 2Kr 17, 6 And in the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of the Assyrians captured Samaria, and he carried away Israel to Assyria. And he stationed them in Halah and in Habor, beside the river of Gozan, in the cities of the Medes. 7 2Kr 17, 7 For it happened that, when the sons of Israel had sinned against the Lord, their God, who had led them away from the land of Egypt, from the hand of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, they worshipped strange gods. 8 2Kr 17, 8 And they walked according to the rituals of the nations that the Lord had consumed in the sight of the sons of Israel, and of the kings of Israel. For they had acted similarly. 9 2Kr 17, 9 And the sons of Israel offended the Lord, their God, with deeds that were not upright. And they built for themselves high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city. 10 2Kr 17, 10 And they made for themselves statues and sacred groves, on every high hill and under every leafy tree. 11 2Kr 17, 11 And they were burning incense there, upon altars, in the manner of the nations that the Lord had removed from their face. And they did wicked deeds, provoking the Lord. 12 2Kr 17, 12 And they worshipped impurities, concerning which the Lord instructed them that they should not do this word. 13 2Kr 17, 13 And the Lord testified to them, in Israel and in Judah, through the hand of all the prophets and seers, saying: “Return from your wicked ways, and keep my precepts and ceremonies, in accord with the entire law, which I instructed to your fathers, and just as I sent to you by the hand of my servants, the prophets.” 14 2Kr 17, 14 But they did not listen. Instead, they hardened their necks to be like the neck of their fathers, who were not willing to obey the Lord, their God. 15 2Kr 17, 15 And they cast aside his ordinances, and the covenant that he formed with their fathers, and the testimonies which he testified to them. And they pursued vanities and acted vainly. And they followed the nations that were all around them, concerning the things which the Lord had commanded them not to do, and which they did. 16 2Kr 17, 16 And they abandoned all the precepts of the Lord, their God. And they made for themselves two molten calves and sacred groves. And they adored the entire celestial army. And they served Baal. 17 2Kr 17, 17 And they consecrated their sons and their daughters through fire. And they devoted themselves to divinations and soothsaying. And they delivered themselves into the doing of evil before the Lord, so that they provoked him. 18 2Kr 17, 18 And the Lord became vehemently angry with Israel, and he took them away from his sight. And there remained no one, except the tribe of Judah alone. 19 2Kr 17, 19 But even Judah did not keep the commandments of the Lord, their God. Instead, they walked in the errors of Israel, which they had wrought. 20 2Kr 17, 20 And the Lord cast aside all of the offspring of Israel. And he afflicted them, and he delivered them into the hand of despoilers, until he drove them away from his face, 21 2Kr 17, 21 even from that time when Israel was torn away from the house of David, and they appointed for themselves Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, as king. For Jeroboam separated Israel from the Lord, and he caused them to sin a great sin. 22 2Kr 17, 22 And the sons of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam, which he had done. And they did not withdraw from these, 23 2Kr 17, 23 even when the Lord carried away Israel from his face, just as he had said by the hand of all his servants, the prophets. And Israel was carried away from their land into Assyria, even to this day. 24 2Kr 17, 24 Then the king of the Assyrians brought some from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and from Avva, and from Hamath, and from Sepharvaim. And he located them in the cities of Samaria, in place of the sons of Israel. And they possessed Samaria, and they lived in its cities. 25 2Kr 17, 25 And when they had begun to live there, they did not fear the Lord. And the Lord sent lions among them, which were 214 killing them. 26 2Kr 17, 26 And this was reported to the king of the Assyrians, and it was said: “The peoples that you transferred and caused to live in the cities of Samaria, they are ignorant of the ordinances of the God of the land. And so the Lord has sent lions among them. And behold, they have killed them, because they were ignorant of the rituals of the God of the land.” 27 2Kr 17, 27 Then the king of the Assyrians commanded, saying: “Lead to that place one of the priests, whom you brought as a captive from there. And let him go and live with them. And let him teach them the ordinances of the God of the land.” 28 2Kr 17, 28 And so, when one of the priests, who had been led away captive from Samaria, had arrived, he lived in Bethel. And he taught them how they should worship the Lord. 29 2Kr 17, 29 And each of the nations made gods of their own, and they placed them in the shrines of the high places, which the Samaritans had made: nation after nation, in their cities in which they were living. 30 2Kr 17, 30 So the men of Babylon made Soccoth-benoth; and the men of Cuth made Nergal; and the men of Hamath made Ashima; 31 2Kr 17, 31 and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak. Then those who were from Sepharvaim burned up their children with fire, for the gods of Sepharvaim: Adram-melech and Anam-melech. 32 2Kr 17, 32 But nevertheless, they worshipped the Lord. Then they made for themselves, from the least of the people, priests of the high places. And they placed them in the shrines of the high places. 33 2Kr 17, 33 And though they worshipped the Lord, they also served their own gods, according to the custom of the nations from which they had been transferred into Samaria. 34 2Kr 17, 34 Even to the present day, they follow the ancient customs; they do not fear the Lord, and they do not keep his ceremonies, and judgments, and law, and commandment, which the Lord had instructed to the sons of Jacob, whom he named Israel. 35 2Kr 17, 35 And he had struck a covenant with them, and he had commanded them, saying: “You shall not fear foreign gods, and you shall not adore them, and you shall not worship them, and you shall not sacrifice to them. 36 2Kr 17, 36 But the Lord, your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt, with great strength and with an outstretched arm, him shall you fear, and him shall you adore, and to him shall you sacrifice. 37 2Kr 17, 37 Also, the ceremonies, and judgments, and law, and commandment, which he wrote for you, you shall keep so that you do them for all days. And you shall not fear strange gods. 38 2Kr 17, 38 And the covenant, which he struck with you, you shall not forget; neither shall you worship strange gods. 39 2Kr 17, 39 But you shall fear the Lord, your God. And he will rescue you from the hand of all your enemies.” 40 2Kr 17, 40 Yet truly, they did not listen to this. Instead, they acted in accord with their earlier custom. 41 2Kr 17, 41 And such were these nations: to some extent fearing the Lord, yet nevertheless also serving their idols. As for their sons and grandsons, just as their fathers acted, so also did they act, even to the present day.

even from that time when Israel was torn away from the house of David, and they appointed for themselves Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, as king. For Jeroboam separated Israel from the Lord, and he caused them to sin a great sin.

2Kr 17,4 - Salmanassar V. panoval v r. 727–722 pr. Kr. – Egyptského kráľa Su stotožňujú s faraónom Sabakonom. Tento však panoval len o 30 rokov neskoršie. Preto iní myslia, že Su bol nejaké egyptské knieža. – Mimobiblické pramene poznajú akéhosi tartana (vojvodcu, teda nie kráľa!) v krajine Musri, ktorý mal podobné meno, volal sa Sibu. Preto sa mnohí dnes domnievajú, že tu spomínaný Su je totožný s týmto Sibum; nie je teda kráľom Egypta (hebr. Misraim), ale vojvodcom severoarabskej krajiny Musri.
2Kr 17,6 - Pád Samárie spadá do roku, v ktorom zomrel Salmanassar (722). Z nápisov jeho nástupcu Sargona II. (722–705) však vieme, že Samáriu dobyl až tento kráľ. Asýrsky kráľ, ktorý sa v tomto verši spomína, už nie je Salmanassar V., ale Sargon II. – Hala bol akýsi kraj v Mezopotámii. Mimobiblické pramene ho volajú Halahhu. Rieka Habor ústí do Eufratu pri Karkemiši. Pri tejto rieke ležala krajina Gozan. Podnes je tam miesto, ktoré sa volá Kaušan.
2Kr 17,9 - Z veží strážili stáda (Gn 35,21) a vinice (Iz 5,2). Okolo nich sa tvorili malé osady. Celý výraz rozumej: "od najmenšej osady až po najväčšie mestá".
2Kr 17,16 - Pozri 1 Kr 14,24; 15,12; 22,47. – "Nebeské vojsko" sú nebeské telesá. Izraelitom sa tu prvý raz vyčituje, že sa klaňali hviezdam.
2Kr 17,17 - Pozri pozn. k 16,3.
2Kr 17,23 - Až po dnešný deň – porov. pozn. 14,7.
2Kr 17,24 - Kuta bolo mesto boha Nergala. Ležalo asi tam, kde je dnešný Tel Ibrahim, severovýchodne od Babylonu. Neskoršie volali Židia Samaritánov Kutejcami (Jozef Flávius, Starožitnosti 13, 9,1), z čoho možno usudzovať, že títo tvorili väčšinu medzi novoosadníkmi bývalej severnej ríše. – Avu sa doteraz nepodarilo zistiť. Myslia na sýrske mesto, ktoré sa na amarnských tabuľkách volá "Ammia" a bolo na východ od Antiochie. – O Emate pozri 1 Kr 8,65. – Sefarvaim je buď Sipar (Sippar) severne od Babylonu, na ľavom brehu Eufratu (kde je dnes Abu Chabba), alebo niektoré sýrske mesto, azda mesto, ktoré klinopisné pamiatky volajú Šipri. Toto posledné je pravdepodobnejšie, pretože vo vv. 18,34 a 19,13 sa Sefarvaim spomína medzi sýrskymi mestami.
2Kr 17,30 - Sochotbenot je asi bohyňa, ktorú Babylonci volali Serbanitu a pokladali ju za manželku svojho hlavného boha Marduka. – Boh podsvetia Nergal bol miestnym bohom mesta Kuta. Ďalšie tu spomínané mená božstiev sú nám ináč neznáme. V menách oboch bohov Sefarvaimu sa skrýva asi Moloch, ktorému k úcte tiež pálili dietky (porov. pozn. k 16,3).
