2 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, aaccording to the abominations of the nations whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel.
3 For he rebuilt the1 high places awhich Hezekiah his father had destroyed; he raised up altars for Baal, and made a wooden image, bas Ahab king of Israel had done; and he cworshiped all the host of heaven and served them.
4 aHe also built altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord had said, b“In Jerusalem I will put My name.”
5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the atwo courts of the house of the Lord.
6 aAlso he made his son pass through the fire, practiced bsoothsaying, used witchcraft, and consulted spiritists and mediums. He did much evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger.
