1 Kings 16:13Amplified Bible - Classic EditionFor all the sins of Baasha and of Elah his son by which they sinned and made Israel sin, in provoking the Lord, the God of Israel, to anger with their idols. See the chapter |
They despised and rejected His statutes and His covenant which He made with their fathers and His warnings to them, and they followed vanity (false gods–falsehood, emptiness, and futility) and [they themselves and their prayers] became false (empty and futile). They went after the heathen round about them, of whom the Lord had charged them that they should not do as they did.
