3 He burned incense in athe Valley of the Son of Hinnom, and burned bhis children in the cfire, according to the abominations of the nations whom the Lord had dcast out before the children of Israel.
4 And he sacrificed and burned incense on the1 high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.

6 For aPekah the son of Remaliah killed one hundred and twenty thousand in Judah in one day, all valiant men, bbecause they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers.
