12:023:005 And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of
           Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the
           cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them
           also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the
           moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.

12:023:006 And he brought out the grove from the house of the lord,
           without Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burned it at the
           brook Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the
           powder thereof upon the graves of the children of the people.

12:023:007 And he brake down the houses of the sodomites, that were by
           the house of the lord, where the women wove hangings for the
           grove.

12:023:008 And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and
           defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense,
           from Geba to Beersheba, and brake down the high places of the
           gates that were in the entering in of the gate of Joshua the
           governor of the city, which were on a man’s left hand at the
           gate of the city.

12:023:009 Nevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the
           altar of the lord in Jerusalem, but they did eat of the
           unleavened bread among their brethren.

12:023:010 And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the children
           of Hinnom, that no man might make his son or his daughter to
           pass through the fire to Molech.

12:023:011 And he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given
           to the sun, at the entering in of the house of the lord, by
           the chamber of Nathanmelech the chamberlain, which was in the
           suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun with fire.

12:023:012 And the altars that were on the top of the upper chamber of
           Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which
           Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the lord,
           did the king beat down, and brake them down from thence, and
           cast the dust of them into the brook Kidron.

12:023:013 And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on
           the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the
           king of Israel had builded for Ashtoreth the abomination of
           the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of the
           Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of
           Ammon, did the king defile.

12:023:014 And he brake in pieces the images, and cut down the groves,
           and filled their places with the bones of men.
