2 Kings 23:11-13
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 23
11
And he did away with the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entrance of the house of the
Lord
, by the chamber of Nathan-melech the official, which
was
at the covered courtyard; and he burned the chariots of the sun with fire.
12
The king also tore down the altars that
were
on the roof, the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courtyards of the house of the
Lord
; and he smashed them there and threw their dust into the brook Kidron.
13
And the king defiled the high places that
were
opposite Jerusalem, which
were
on the right of the mount of destruction which Solomon the king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Sidonians, for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, and for Milcom the abomination of the sons of Ammon.
King James Version
Chapter 23
11
And he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entering in of the house of the
Lord
, by the chamber of Nathanmelech the chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun with fire.
12
And the altars that were on the top of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the
Lord
, did the king beat down, and brake them down from thence, and cast the dust of them into the brook Kidron.
13
And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had builded for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile.

He did away with the horses that the kings of Judah had dedicated to the sun. They had been at the entrance of the
Lord
’s temple in the precincts by the chamber of Nathan-melech, the eunuch. He also burned the chariots of the sun.
12
The king tore down the altars that the kings of Judah had made on the roof of Ahaz’s upper chamber. He also tore down the altars that Manasseh had made in the two courtyards of the
Lord
’s temple. Then he smashed them there and threw their dust into the Kidron Valley.
13
The king also defiled the high places that were across from Jerusalem, to the south of the Mount of Destruction, which King Solomon of Israel had built for Ashtoreth, the abhorrent idol of the Sidonians; for Chemosh, the abhorrent idol of Moab; and for Milcom, the detestable idol of the Ammonites.

12
Josiah tore down the altars that the kings of Judah had built on the palace roof above the upper room of Ahaz. The king destroyed the altars that Manasseh had built in the two courtyards of the
Lord
’s Temple. He smashed them to bits and scattered the pieces in the Kidron Valley.
13
The king also desecrated the pagan shrines east of Jerusalem, to the south of the Mount of Corruption, where King Solomon of Israel had built shrines for Ashtoreth, the detestable goddess of the Sidonians; and for Chemosh, the detestable god of the Moabites; and for Molech, the vile god of the Ammonites.

12
He pulled down the altars the kings of Judah had erected on the roof near the upper room of Ahaz, and the altars Manasseh had built in the two courts of the temple of the
Lord
. He removed them from there, smashed them to pieces and threw the rubble into the Kidron Valley.
13
The king also desecrated the high places that were east of Jerusalem on the south of the Hill of Corruption—the ones Solomon king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the vile goddess of the Sidonians, for Chemosh the vile god of Moab, and for Molek the detestable god of the people of Ammon.
