2 Kings 17:29-31
Contemporary English Version
29 But in towns all over Israel, the different groups of people made statues of their own gods, then they placed these idols in local Israelite[a] shrines. 30 The people from Babylonia made the god Succoth-Benoth; those from Cuthah made the god Nergal; those from Hamath made Ashima; 31 those from Avva made Nibhaz and Tartak; and the people from Sepharvaim sacrificed their children to their own gods Adrammelech and Anammelech.
