2 Chronicles 28:23-25

New American Standard Bible

^23 (A)For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus who had ^[a]defeated him, and said, “^(B)Because the gods of the kings of Aram helped them, I will sacrifice to them so that they may help me.” But they became the ^[b]downfall of him and all Israel. ²⁴ Moreover, when Ahaz gathered together the utensils of the house of God, he ^(C)cut the utensils of the house of God in pieces; and he ^(D)closed the doors of the house of the Lord, and ^(E)made altars for himself in every corner of Jerusalem. ²⁵ In every city of Judah he made high places to burn incense to other gods, and provoked the Lord, the God of his fathers, to anger.
