Bible Verses About National Sins: Kingdom of Israel

and walk in the statutes of the nations that Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel, and of the kings of Israel that they made;

and the sons of Israel do covertly things that are not right against Jehovah their God, and build for them high places in all their cities, from a tower of the watchers unto the fenced city,

and set up for them standing-pillars and shrines on every high height, and under every green tree,

and make perfume there in all high places, like the nations that Jehovah removed from their presence, and do evil things to provoke Jehovah,

and serve the idols, of which Jehovah said to them, `Ye do not do this thing;'

`Hear a word of Jehovah, sons of Israel, For a strife is to Jehovah with inhabitants of the land, For there is no truth, nor kindness, Nor knowledge of God, in the land,

Swearing, and lying, and murdering, And stealing, and committing adultery--have increased, And blood against blood hath touched.
