6 And he brought out the kgrove from the house of the Lord, without Jerusalem, unto the ibrook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and lstamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof mupon the graves of the children of the people. 7 And he brake down the houses of nthe sodomites, that were by the house of the Lord, owhere the women wove †hangings for the grove. 8 And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from pGeba to qBeer-sheba, and brake down the high places of the gates that were in the entering in of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man’s left hand at the gate of the city. 9 rNevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem, but they did eat of the unleavened bread among their brethren. 10 And he defiled sTopheth, which is in tthe valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man umight make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to wMolech. 11 And he xtook away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entering in of the house of the Lord, by the ychamber of Nathan-melech the ||chamberlain, which was in the zsuburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun with fire. 12 And the altars that were aon the top of the bupper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which cManasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the Lord, did the king beat down, and ||brake them down from thence, and cast the dust of them into dthe brook Kidron. 13 And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of ||the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had builded for eAshtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for fChemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for eMilcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile. 14 And he brake in pieces the †images, and cut down the groves, and filled their places with the bones of men.
