Legacy Standard Bible

¹⁵ Furthermore, ^(A)the altar that was at Bethel and the ^(B)high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin, had made, even that altar and the high place he tore down. Then he ^[a](C)demolished its stones, ground them to dust, and burned the Asherah. ¹⁶ Then Josiah turned, and he saw the graves that were there on the mountain, and he sent and took the bones from the graves and burned them on the altar and defiled it ^(D)according to the word of Yahweh which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these things. ¹⁷ Then he said, “What is this monument that I see?” And the men of the city told him, “^(E)It is the grave of the man of God who came from Judah and proclaimed these things which you have done against the altar of Bethel.”
