2 Kings 18:3-5
EasyEnglish Bible
3 Hezekiah did things that the Lord said were good, as his ancestor King David had done. 4 He removed the altars on the hills. He knocked down the stone pillars that people worshipped and he cut down the Asherah poles. He broke into pieces the bronze snake that Moses had made. Until then, the Israelites had burned incense as an offering to it. It was called Nehushtan.[a]
5 Hezekiah trusted the Lord, Israel's God. None of the other kings of Judah was like him, either before him or after him.
