24 The king of As·syrʹi·a then brought people from Babylon, Cuʹthah, Avʹva, Haʹmath, and Seph·ar·vaʹim+ and settled them in the cities of Sa·marʹi·a in place of the Israelites; they took possession of Sa·marʹi·a and lived in its cities.

19 Where are the gods of Haʹmath and Arʹpad?+ Where are the gods of Seph·ar·vaʹim?+ And have they rescued Sa·marʹi·a out of my hand?+
