2 Kings 18:3-6
31He didH6213 whatH3477 wasH3477 rightH3477 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, in accordance with everythingH3605 that his fatherH1 DavidH1732 had doneH6213.
42He removedH5493 the highH1116 placesH1116 and smashedH7665 the memorialH4676 stonesH4676 toH7665 piecesH7665, and cutH3772 downH3772 the 3AsherahH842. He also crushedH3807 toH3807 piecesH3807 4the bronzeH5178 serpentH5175 that MosesH4872 had madeH6213, for untilH5704 thoseH1992 daysH3117 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 had been burningH6999 incenseH6999 to it; and it was calledH7121 5NehushtanH5180.
56He trustedH982 in the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; and 7afterH310 him there was noH3808 one likeH3644 him among allH3605 the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, norH3808 among those whoH834 cameH1961 beforeH6440 him.
6For he 8clungH1692 to the LordH3068; he did not desistH5493 from followingH310 Him, but keptH8104 His commandmentsH4687, whichH834 the LordH3068 had commandedH6680 MosesH4872.
