2 Kings 17:34-39 NWT
34 Down to this day they are doing according to their former religions. There were none fearing Jehovah and none doing according to his statutes and his judicial decisions and the law and the commandment that Jehovah had commanded the sons of Jacob, whose name he made Israel; 35 when Jehovah concluded a covenant with them and commanded them, saying: "You must not fear other gods, and you must not bow down to them nor serve them nor sacrifice to them. 36 But Jehovah, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and a stretched-out arm, is the One whom you should fear, and to him you should bow down, and to him you should sacrifice. 37 And the regulations and the judicial decisions and the law and the commandment that he wrote for you, you should take care to do always; and you must not fear other gods. 38 And the covenant that I have concluded with you, you must not forget; and you must not fear other gods. 39 But it is Jehovah your God that you should fear, as he is the one that will deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies."
2 Kings 17:34-39 LITV
(34) To this day they do according to the former custom; they do not fear Jehovah, and do not do according to their statutes, and according to their ordinances, and according to the Law, and according to the commandment that Jehovah commanded the sons of Jacob, on whom He set His name, Israel.
(35) And Jehovah made a covenant with them, and commanded them, saying, You shall not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them;
(36) but Jehovah who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a stretched out arm, you shall fear Him, and you shall bow yourselves to Him, and you shall sacrifice to Him;
(37) and the statutes, and the judgments, and the Law, and the commandments that He wrote for you, you shall observe to do forever, and you shall not fear other gods;
(38) and the covenant that I have made with you, you shall not forget, and you shall not fear other gods;
(39) but you shall fear Jehovah your God, and He shall deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.

Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
