2 Kings 23:10-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
10 He defiled Topheth,(A) which is in the Valley of Hinnom,(B) so that no one could make his son or daughter pass through the fire(C) to Molech.(D) 11 He did away with the horses that the kings of Judah had dedicated to the sun. They had been at the entrance of the Lord’s temple in the precincts by the chamber of Nathan-melech the court official, and he burned up the chariots of the sun.(E)
12 The king tore down the altars that were on the roof(F)—Ahaz’s upper chamber(G) that the kings of Judah had made—and the altars that Manasseh had made(H) in the two courtyards of the Lord’s temple. Then he smashed them[a] there and threw their dust into the Kidron Valley.
