2 Kings 17:10-12

And they set them up images and groves in every high hill, and under every green tree: {images: Heb. statues} And there they burnt incense in all the high places, as {did} the heathen whom the LORD carried away before them; and wrought wicked things to provoke the LORD to anger: For they served idols, whereof the LORD had said unto them, Ye shall not do this thing.
