Nang matapos nga ang lahat ng ito, ang buong Israel na nakaharap ay lumabas sa mga bayan ng Juda, at pinagputolputol ang mga haligi na pinakaalaala, at ibinuwal ang mga Asera, at iginiba ang mga mataas na dako at ang mga dambana mula sa buong Juda at Benjamin, sa Ephraim man at sa Manases, hanggang sa kanilang naigibang lahat. Nang magkagayo'y ang lahat ng mga anak ni Israel ay nagsibalik, bawa't isa'y sa kaniyang pag-aari, sa kanilang sariling mga bayan.This verse in the real world
