Mais chaque nation se fit ses dieux, et les mit dans les maisons des hauts lieux que les Samaritains avaient faits; chaque nation les mit dans les villes où elle habitait.
Mais les nations firent chacune leurs dieux dans les villes qu'elles habitaient, et les placèrent dans les maisons des hauts lieux bâties par les Samaritains.
Mais chaque nation fit ses dieux, et ils les mirent dans les maisons des hauts lieux que les Samaritains avaient faits; chaque nation les mit dans ses villes où ils habitaient.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Howbeit, every nation made gods of their own,.... Served and worshipped those they brought with them, and which were the work of their own hands, even the nations, or those out of the nations, mentioned 2 Kings 17:24 these, notwithstanding the instructions they had about the worship of the God of Israel, retained and served their own deities: and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities wherein they dwelt; as the Israelites had built high places everywhere for idolatry, and put images in them, 2 Kings 17:9 these Heathens placed their gods there in the room of them, which were as follow.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The “Samaritans” here are the Israelites. The temples built by them at the high places 1 Kings 12:31; 1 Kings 13:32 had remained standing at the time of their departure. They were now occupied by the new-comers, who set up their own worship in the old sanctuaries.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 29. Every nation made gods of their own — That is, they made gods after the fashion of those which they had worshipped in their own country.
