2 Kings 21:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ He ·made his own son pass through fire [sacrificed his son in the fire; 16:3]. He practiced ·magic [sorcery; soothsaying] and ·told the future by explaining signs and dreams [divination], and he ·got advice from [consulted] mediums and ·fortune-tellers [psychics; spiritualists]. He did ·many things the Lord said were wrong [^Lmuch evil in the eyes/sight of the Lord], which ·made the Lord angry [aroused/provoked the Lord to anger].

⁷ Manasseh carved an Asherah ·idol [pole; ^Ca sacred tree or pole dedicated to the goddess Asherah; 13:6] and put it in the ·Temple [^Lhouse]. The Lord had said to David and his son Solomon about the ·Temple [^Lhouse], “I will ·be worshiped [^Lput my name] forever in this ·Temple [^Lhouse] and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen from all the tribes of Israel. ⁸ I will never again make the ·Israelites [^Lfeet of Israel to] wander out of the land I gave their ·ancestors [fathers]. But they must ·obey [observe; do] everything I have commanded them and all the ·teachings [law; ^Ltorah] my servant Moses gave them.”
