2 Kings 17:14-15

14But they would not listen and were as stiff-necked as their ancestors, who did not trust in the LORD their God.

15They rejected his decrees and the covenant he had made with their ancestors and the statutes he had warned them to keep. They followed worthless idols and themselves became worthless. They imitated the nations around them although the LORD had ordered them, “Do not do as they do.”
