For (B)he rebuilt the high places which his father Hezekiah had torn down; (C)he also set up altars for the Baals and made [a]Asherim, and he worshiped all the heavenly [b]lights and served them. (D)He built altars in the house of the Lord of which the Lord had said, “My name shall be (E)in Jerusalem forever.”
