2 Kings 23:13-15

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹³ The king defiled the high places which were east of Jerusalem on the south end of the Mount of Corruption,^[a] which Solomon king of Israel had made for Ashtarte, the detestable goddess of the Sidonians, and for Chemosh, the detestable god of Moab, and for Milcom, the abomination of the Ammonites. ¹⁴ He smashed the sacred memorial stones to bits, and he cut down the Asherah poles. Then he filled their sites with human bones.

¹⁵ Even the altar which was in Bethel, the high place which Jeroboam son of Nebat had made, which caused Israel to sin—he pulled down even that altar and its high place. Then he burned the high place. He ground the Asherah pole to powder and burned it.
