*
And he brake down the houses of the sodomites ,
that were by the house of the LORD ,
where the women wove hangings for the grove .
*
And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah ,
and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense ,
from Geba to Beersheba B @#
er ,
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 mans left hand at the gate of the city .
*
Nevertheless 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 .
*
And he defiled Topheth ,
which is in the valley of the children of Hinnom ,
that no man might make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech .
*
And he took 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 chamber of Nathanmelech N @
than-Melek #
the chamberlain ,
which was in the suburbs ,
and burned the chariots of the sun with fire .
*
And the altars that were on the top of the upper chamber of Ahaz ,
which the kings of Judah had made ,
and the altars which Manasseh 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 the brook Kidron .
*
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 Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians ,
and for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites Mow #
ab #,
and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon ,
did the king defile .
*
And he brake in pieces the images ,
and cut down the groves ,
and filled their places with the bones of men .
