2 Kings 17:19

Also Judah kept not the commandments of the Lord their God,.... But were infected with the idolatry of the ten tribes, and drawn into it by their example, and persisted therein, notwithstanding what befell the ten tribes; which are aggravations of the sins of them both, see Jer_3:7,

but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made; worshipping the calves as they did, particularly in the times of Ahaz, he setting the example, see 2Ki_16:3.

(BBE)  But even Judah did not keep the orders of the Lord their God, but were guided by the rules which Israel had made.

(Brenton)  Nay even Juda kept not the commandments of the Lord their God, but they walked according to the customs of Israel which they practised, and rejected the Lord.

(GNB)  But even the people of Judah did not obey the laws of the LORD their God; they imitated the customs adopted by the people of Israel.

John Gill Exposition of the Bible Commentary

Psalms 119:140

Thy word is very pure,.... Or, "exceedingly purified" (w): as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times, Psa_12:6; free from, all drossy matter; from any mixtures, or the corruptions and doctrines of men; and which tends and leads to purity of heart and life;

therefore thy servant loveth it;

that which carnal men hate the word of God for, because it forbids and condemns all impurity of flesh and spirit, all impure thoughts, words, and actions; that a good man loves it for, and which is an evidence of a sanctified heart.

2 Timothy 2:12

(KJVA)  If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:

 

(BBE)  If we go on to the end, then we will be ruling with him: if we say we have no knowledge of him, then he will say he has no knowledge of us:

 

(CEV)  If we don't give up, we will rule with him. If we deny that we know him, he will deny that he knows us.

 

(GNB)  If we continue to endure, we shall also rule with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.

 

(ISV)  Enduring, we with him will reign. Who him denies, he will disclaim.

 

(JMNT)  since we are continuously remaining under for support (or: if we continue patiently enduring), we will also continue reigning (ruling as kings) together with [Him]; if we shall continue denying (disowning; not consenting; renouncing; turning our back on [other MSS: are repeatedly denying]) [Him], That One also will continue denying (disowning; not consenting to; renouncing; turning His back on) us.
