22 Judah did evil in the sight of[a] the Lord. They made him more jealous by their sins than their ancestors had done.[b] 23 They even built for themselves high places, sacred pillars, and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree. 24 There were also male cultic prostitutes[c] in the land. They committed the same horrible sins as the nations[d] that the Lord had driven out from before the Israelites.
