2 Chronicles 28:1-3

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

Reign of Ahaz

28 Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign; he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was right in the sight of the Lord, as his ancestor David had done, ² but he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel. He even made cast images for the Baals; ³ and he made offerings in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and made his sons pass through fire, according to the abominable practices of the nations whom the Lord drove out before the people of Israel.
