2 Chronicles 28:1-4

New American Standard Bible

Ahaz Succeeds Jotham in Judah

28 ^(A)Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for sixteen years. ^(B)He did not do what was right in the sight of the Lord as his father David had done. ^2 (C)But he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel; he also ^(D)made cast metal images for the Baals. ³ Furthermore, ^(E)he burned incense in the Valley of Ben-hinnom, and ^(F)burned his sons in fire, ^(G)according to the abominations of the nations whom the Lord had driven out from the sons of Israel. ⁴ He sacrificed and ^(H)burned incense on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.
