New International Version
2 Kings 21:2-6
2He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, following the detestable practices of the nations the Lord had driven out before the Israelites.
3He rebuilt the high places his father Hezekiah had destroyed; he also erected altars to Baal and made an Asherah pole, as Ahab king of Israel had done. He bowed down to all the starry hosts and worshiped them.
4He built altars in the temple of the Lord, of which the Lord had said, “In Jerusalem I will put my Name.”
5In the two courts of the temple of the Lord, he built altars to all the starry hosts.
6He sacrificed his own son in the fire, practiced divination, sought omens, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did much evil in the eyes of the Lord, arousing his anger.
