- these nations:
- "So they feared²¹¹¹ the LORD,ª and madeª° unto themselves of the lowestª¹ of them priestsª of the high places,ª which sacrificedª° for them in the housesª of the high places.ª ... They feared²¹¹¹ the LORD,ª and servedª°¹ their own gods,ª after the mannerª of the nationsª whom¹¹ they carried awayª° from thence.¹¹" {2Kg 17:32-33} + "Now therefore¹ fearª°¹ the LORD,ª and serveª° him in sincerityª and in truth:ª and put awayª°¹ the godsª which¹ your fathersª servedª° on the other sideª of the flood,ª and in Egypt;ª and serveª° ye¹ the LORD.ª ... If¹ ye forsakeª°¹ the LORD,ª and serveª° strangeª gods,ª then he will turnª° and do you hurt,ª° and consumeª° you, afterª that¹ he hath done you good.ª°" {Jsh 24:14-20} + "And Elijahª cameª° unto¹ all¹ the people,ª and said,ª° How long²¹¹ haltª° ye¹ between¹ twoª opinions?ª if¹ the LORDª [be] God,ª follow¹¹ him: but if¹ Baal,ª [then] followª²°¹ him. And the peopleª answeredª° him not¹ a word.ª" {1Kg 18:21} + "And them that worshipª° the hostª of heavenª upon¹ the housetops;ª and them that worshipª° [and] that swearª° by the LORD,ª and that swearª° by Malcham;²¹" {Zph 1:5} + "No manª canª° serveª° twoª masters:ª forª eitherª he will hateª° the¹ one,ª andª loveª° the¹ other;ª or¹ else² he will holdª° to the one,ª andª despiseª° the¹ other.ª Ye cannotªª° serveª° Godª andª mammon.ª" {Mtt 6:24} + "I knowª° thyª works,ª thatª thou artª° neitherª coldª norª hot:ª I wouldª thou wertª° coldª orª hot.ª ...
