2 Kings 23:14 in Context — 2 Kings 23

12 Derrubou também o rei os altares que estavam sobre o terraço da sala de Acaz, que os reis de Judá haviam feito, e os altares que havia feito Manassés nos dois átrios da casa do SENHOR; e dali correu e lançou o pó no ribeiro de Cedrom.

13 Também profanou o rei os altos que estavam diante de Jerusalém, à direita do monte da destruição, os quais Salomão rei de Israel havia edificado a Astarote, abominação dos sidônios, e a Camos abominação de Moabe, e a Milcom abominação dos filhos de Amom.

14 E quebrou as estátuas, e arrancou os bosques, e encheu o lugar deles de ossos de homens.

15 Igualmente o altar que estava em Betel, e o alto que havia feito Jeroboão filho de Nebate, o que fez pecar a Israel, aquele altar e o alto destruiu; e queimou o alto, e o tornou em pó, e pôs fogo ao bosque.

16 E voltou-se Josias, e vendo os sepulcros que estavam ali no monte, enviou e tirou os ossos dos sepulcros, e queimou-os sobre o altar para contaminá-lo, conforme à palavra do SENHOR que havia profetizado o homem de Deus, o qual havia anunciado estes negócios.
