4And the kingH4428 commandedH6680 HilkiahH2518 the high priestH3548, and the priestsH3548 of the secondH4932 order, and the keepersH8104 of the threshold, to bringH3318 forthH3318 out of the templeH1964 of Jehovah all the vesselsH3627 that were madeH6213 for BaalH1168, and for the AsherahH842, and for all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, and he burnedH8313 them without JerusalemH3389 in the fieldsH7709 of the KidronH6939, and carriedH5375 the ashes of them unto Beth-el. 5And he putH5414 down the idolatrous priestsH3649, whom the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 had ordained to burn incenseH6999 in the highH1116 placesH1116 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and in the placesH1116 roundH4524 about JerusalemH3389; them also that burned incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168, to the sunH8121, and to the moonH3394, and to the planets, and to all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064. 6And he broughtH3318 out the AsherahH842 from the houseH1004 of Jehovah, without JerusalemH3389, unto the brook KidronH6939, and burnedH8313 it at the brook KidronH6939, and beat it to dustH6083, and castH7993 the dustH6083 thereof upon the gravesH6913 of the common peopleH5971. 7And he brake down the housesH1004 of the sodomites, that were in the houseH1004 of Jehovah, whereH834 the womenH802 wove hangings for the AsherahH842. 8And he broughtH935 all the priestsH3548 out of the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and defiledH2930 the highH1116 placesH1116 whereH834 the priestsH3548 had burned incenseH6999, from GebaH1387 to Beer-sheba; and he brake down the highH1116 placesH1116 of the gatesH8179 that were at the entranceH6607 of the gateH8179 of JoshuaH3091 the governor of the cityH5892, which were on a man’sH376 left handH8040 at the gateH8179 of the cityH5892.
