2 Kings 18:4-5

41He removed the high places and smashed the memorial stones to pieces, and cut down the 2Asherah. He also crushed to pieces 3the bronze serpent that Moses had made, for until those days the sons of Israel had been burning incense to it; and it was called 4Nehushtan.

55He trusted in the Lord, the God of Israel; and 6after him there was no one like him among all the kings of Judah, nor among those who came before him.
