ESVEnglish Standard Version

“Did you bring to me sacrifices and offerings during the forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel? You shall take up Sikkuth your king, and Kiyyun your star-god—your images that you made for yourselves, and I will send you into exile beyond Damascus,” says the Lord, whose name is the God of hosts.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

“Did you bring me sacrifices and offerings

forty years in the wilderness, people of Israel?

You have lifted up the shrine of your king,

the pedestal of your idols,

the star of your god—

which you made for yourselves.

Therefore I will send you into exile beyond Damascus,”

says the Lord, whose name is God Almighty.

NLTNew Living Translation

“Was it to me you were bringing sacrifices and offerings during the forty years in the wilderness, Israel? No, you served your pagan gods—Sakkuth your king god and Kaiwan your star god—the images you made for yourselves. So I will send you into exile, to a land east of Damascus,” says the Lord, whose name is the God of Heaven’s Armies.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Did you bring to me sacrifices and offerings those forty years in the desert, O house of Israel? And you will take up Sikkuth, your king, and Kaiwan, your images, the star of your gods which you made for yourselves. And I will deport you beyond Damascus,” says Yahweh—the God of hosts is his name.

KJV 1900King James Version

Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?

But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images,

The star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.

Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus,

Saith the Lord, whose name is The God of hosts.
