2 Kings 18:4 in Context — 2 Kings 18
2 Il avait vingt-cinq ans lorsqu’il devint roi, et il régna vingt-neuf ans à Jérusalem. Sa mère s’appelait Abi, fille de Zacharie.
3 Il fit ce qui est droit aux yeux de l’Éternel, entièrement comme avait fait David, son père.
4 Il fit disparaître les hauts lieux, brisa les statues, abattit les idoles, et mit en pièces le serpent d’airain que Moïse avait fait, car les enfants d’Israël avaient jusqu’alors brûlé des parfums devant lui: on l’appelait Nehuschtan.
5 Il mit sa confiance en l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël; et parmi tous les rois de Juda qui vinrent après lui ou qui le précédèrent, il n’y en eut point de semblable à lui.
6 Il fut attaché à l’Éternel, il ne se détourna point de lui, et il observa les commandements que l’Éternel avait prescrits à Moïse.
