3 So Israel* attached itself to the Baʹal of Peʹor;*+ and the anger of Jehovah began to blaze against Israel.+

13 Thus they abandoned Jehovah and took up serving Baʹal and the Ashʹto·reth+ images.*

2 But he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel,+ and even molten+ statues he made of the Baʹals.+

17 “And Jehovah of armies himself, the Planter of you,*+ has spoken against you a calamity on account of the badness of the house of Israel+ and the house of Judah that they have committed on their own part to offend me in making sacrificial smoke to Baʹal.”+
