2 Kings 18:3-7

3And he didH6213 what was rightH3477 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, just asH3605 his fatherH1 DavidH1732 had doneH6213. 4He removedH5493 the high placesH1116, shatteredH7665 the sacred pillarsH4676, and cut downH3772 the Asherah polesH842. He also demolishedH3807 the bronzeH5178 snakeH5175 calledH7121 NehushtanH51801 thatH834 MosesH4872 had madeH6213, forH3588 up toH5704 thatH1992H1961 timeH3117 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 had burned incenseH6999 to it.

5Hezekiah trustedH982 in the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478. NoH3808 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 wasH1961 like himH3644H3605, either before himH6440 or after himH310. 6He remained faithfulH1692 to the LORDH3068 and did notH3808 turnH5493 from following HimH310; he keptH8104 the commandmentsH4687 thatH834 the LORDH3068 had givenH6680 MosesH4872.

7And the LORDH3068 wasH1961 withH5973 Hezekiah, and he prosperedH7919 whereverH3605 he wentH3318. He rebelledH4775 against the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 and refusedH3808 to serve himH5647.

Notes

  1. 1. 2 Kings 18:4 Nehushtan sounds like the Hebrew for bronze and also for snake. ↩
