2 Kings 18:3-5

Expanded Bible

³ Hezekiah did ·what the Lord said was right [^Lright in the eyes/sight of the Lord], just as his ·ancestor [father] David had done. ⁴ He removed the ·places where gods were worshiped [^Lhigh places; 12:3]. He smashed the stone pillars and ·cut down [smashed; broke] the Asherah ·idols [poles; ^Ca sacred tree or pole dedicated to the goddess Asherah; 13:6]. Also the ·Israelites [^Lsons/^Tchildren of Israel] had been burning incense to Nehushtan, the bronze ·snake [serpent] Moses had made [Num. 21:9]. But Hezekiah broke it into pieces.

⁵ Hezekiah trusted in the Lord, the God of Israel. There was no one like him among all the kings of Judah, either before him or after him.
