2 Kings 17:38-42

The covenant that I have made with you, you shall not forget, nor shall you fear other gods.

But you shall fear the Lord your God; and He will save you from the hand of all your enemies.”

So while these nations feared the Lord, they also served their idols; their children likewise and their grandchildren, just as their fathers did, they do to this day.
