2 Kings 16:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 Twenty years old was Ahaz, when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and did not uprightly in the sight of the Lord his God, like David his father:
3 But walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yea, and made his son to [a]go through the fire, after the abominations of the heathen, whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel.
4 Also he offered and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
