15 E o rei Acaz mandou ao sacerdote Urias, dizendo: No grande altar acenderás o holocausto da manhã e a oferta de alimentos da noite, e o holocausto do rei e sua oferta de alimentos, e também o holocausto de todo o povo da terra e suas ofertas de alimentos e suas libações; e espargirás sobre ele todo o sangue do holocausto, e todo o sangue do sacrifício; e o altar de bronze será meu para nele consultar.
16 E o sacerdote Urias fez conforme a todas as coisas que o rei Acaz lhe havia mandado.
17 E cortou o rei Acaz as cintas das bases, e tirou-lhes as fontes; tirou também o mar de sobre os bois de bronze que estavam debaixo dele, e o pôs sobre o piso de pedra.
18 Também a tenda do sábado que haviam edificado na casa, e a entrada de fora do rei, ele os moveu do templo do SENHOR, por causa do rei da Assíria.
19 Os demais dos feitos de Acaz que pôs por obra, não estão todos escritos no livro das crônicas dos reis de Judá?
