2 Kings 18:3-5

The Voice

³ He did what was good in the Eternal’s eyes, and he walked the same righteous path as his ancestor, David.

⁴ He tore down all of the wicked high places and demolished all the holy pillars and the sacred pole. He shattered the bronze serpent that Moses had crafted because the Israelites burned incense to honor it.^[a] The bronze serpent was named, “the bronze thing.”^{[b] 5} Hezekiah put his trust in the Eternal One, Israel’s God. Before and after his righteous reign, no other king ever compared to him in Judah.
