2 Kings 22:17

Context
22:17 This will happen because they have abandoned me and offered sacrifices 1  to other gods, angering me with all the idols they have made. 2  My anger will ignite against this place and will not be extinguished!’”

2 Kings 24:20

Context

24:20 What follows is a record of what happened to Jerusalem and Judah because of the Lord’s anger; he finally threw them out of his presence. 3  Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.

1 tn Or “burned incense.”

2 tn Heb “angering me with all the work of their hands.” The translation assumes that this refers to idols they have manufactured (note the preceding reference to “other gods,” as well as 19:18). However, it is possible that this is a general reference to their sinful practices, in which case one might translate, “angering me by all the things they do.”

3 tn Heb “Surely [or, ‘for’] because of the anger of the Lord this happened in Jerusalem and Judah until he threw them out from upon his face.”
