2 Kings 23:10-14

10And he defiledH2930 TophethH8612, which is in the valleyH1516 of the children of HinnomH2011, that no manH376 might makeH2930 his sonH1121 or his daughterH1323 to passH5674 through the fireH784 to MolechH4432. 11And he took away the horsesH5483 that the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 had givenH5414 to the sunH8121, at the entrance of the houseH1004 of Jehovah, by the chamber of Nathan-melech the chamberlain, which was in the precincts; and he burnedH8313 the chariotsH4818 of the sunH8121 with fireH784. 12And the altarsH4196 that were on the roofH1406 of the upperH5944 chamberH5944 of AhazH271, which the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 had madeH6213, and the altarsH4196 which ManassehH4519 had madeH6213 in the twoH8147 courts of the houseH1004 of Jehovah, did the kingH4428 breakH5422 down, and beat them downH5422 from thence, and castH7993 the dustH6083 of them into the brook KidronH6939. 13And the highH1116 placesH1116 that were before JerusalemH3389, which were on the rightH3225 handH3225 of the mount of corruption, which SolomonH8010 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 had builded for Ashtoreth the abominationH8441 of the SidoniansH6722, and for ChemoshH3645 the abominationH8441 of MoabH4124, and for MilcomH4445 the abominationH8441 of the children of AmmonH5983, did the kingH4428 defileH2930. 14And he brake in pieces the pillarsH4676, and cutH3772 down the Asherim, and filledH4390 their placesH4725 with the bonesH6106 of menH120.
