*
For in the eighth year of his reign ,
while he was yet young ,
he began to seek after the God of David his father :
and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places ,
and the groves ,
and the carved images ,
and the molten images .
*
And they brake down the altars of Baalim in his presence ;
and the images ,
that were on high above them ,
he cut down ;
and the groves ,
and the carved images ,
and the molten images ,
he brake in pieces ,
and made dust of them ,
and strowed it upon the graves of them that had sacrificed unto them .
*
And he burnt the bones of the priests upon their altars ,
and cleansed Judah and Jerusalem .
*
And so did he in the cities of Manasseh ,
and Ephraim ,
and Simeon ,
even unto Naphtali ,
with their mattocks round about .
*
And when he had broken down the altars and the groves ,
and had beaten the graven images into powder ,
and cut down all the idols throughout all the land of Israel ,
he returned to Jerusalem .
*
Now in the eighteenth year of his reign ,
when he had purged the land ,
and the house ,
he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah ,
and Maaseiah the governor of the city ,
and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder ,
to repair the house of the LORD his God .
