2 Chronicles 28:1-2
1599 Geneva Bible
28 1 Ahaz an idolater is given into the hands of the Syrians and the king of Israel. 9 The Prophet reproveth the Israelites’ cruelty. 18 Judah is molested with enemies. 23 Ahaz increaseth his idolatry. 26 His death and successor.
1 Ahaz (A)was twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and did not uprightly in the sight of the Lord, like David his [a]father.
2 But [b]he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and made even molten images for [c]Baalim.
