2 Kings 23:12 in Context — 2 Kings 23
10 Le roi souilla Topheth dans la vallée des fils de Hinnom, afin que personne ne fît plus passer son fils ou sa fille par le feu en l’honneur de Moloc.
11 Il fit disparaître de l’entrée de la maison de l’Éternel les chevaux que les rois de Juda avaient consacrés au soleil, près de la chambre de l’eunuque Nethan-Mélec, qui demeurait dans le faubourg; et il brûla au feu les chars du soleil.
12 Le roi démolit les autels qui étaient sur le toit de la chambre haute d’Achaz et que les rois de Juda avaient faits, et les autels qu’avait faits Manassé dans les deux parvis de la maison de l’Éternel; après les avoir brisés et enlevés de là, il en jeta la poussière dans le torrent de Cédron.
13 Le roi souilla les hauts lieux qui étaient en face de Jérusalem, sur la droite de la montagne de perdition, et que Salomon, roi d’Israël, avait bâtis à Astarté, l’abomination des Sidoniens, à Kemosch, l’abomination de Moab, et à Milcom, l’abomination des fils d’Ammon.
14 Il brisa les statues et abattit les idoles, et il remplit d’ossements d’hommes la place qu’elles occupaient.
