^21 (A)“You shall not plant for yourself any tree, as a ^[a]wooden image, near the altar which you build for yourself to the Lord your God.

³ For he rebuilt the ^[a]high places which Hezekiah his father had ^(A)broken down; he raised up altars for the Baals, and ^(B)made wooden images; and he worshiped ^(C)all ^[b]the host of heaven and served them.

¹⁶ So they left all the commandments of the Lord their God, ^(A)made for themselves a molded image and two calves, ^(B)made a wooden image and worshiped all the ^(C)host of heaven, ^(D)and served Baal.

³ For he rebuilt the ^[a]high places ^(A)which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; he raised up altars for Baal, and made a ^[b]wooden image, ^(B)as Ahab king of Israel had done; and he ^(C)worshiped all ^[c]the host of heaven and served them.

¹³ But you shall ^(A)destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and ^(B)cut down their wooden images

^33 (A)And Ahab made a ^[a]wooden image. Ahab ^(B)did more to provoke the Lord God of Israel to anger than all the kings of Israel who were before him.

¹⁵ For the Lord will strike Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water. He will ^(A)uproot Israel from this ^(B)good land which He gave to their fathers, and will scatter them ^(C)beyond ^[a]the River, ^(D)because they have made their ^[b]wooden images, provoking the Lord to anger.

Othniel

⁷ So the children of Israel did ^(A)evil in the sight of the Lord. They ^(B)forgot the Lord their God, and served the Baals and ^[a]Asherahs.

⁵ But thus you shall deal with them: you shall ^(A)destroy their altars, and break down their sacred pillars, and cut down their ^[a]wooden images, and burn their carved images with fire.
