⁹ The Israelites secretly did things against the LORD their God that were not right. From watchtower to fortified city, they built high places in all their cities.

¹⁰ They set up for themselves sacred pillars and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree.

¹² They served idols, although the LORD had told them, “You shall not do this thing.”
