2 Kings 16:17 CPDV

¹⁵  Also, king Ahaz instructed Uriah, the priest, saying: 'Upon the great altar, offer the morning holocaust, and the evening sacrifice, and the holocaust of the king, and his sacrifice, and the holocaust of the entire people of the land, and their sacrifices. But their libations, and all the blood of the holocaust, and all the blood of the victim, you shall pour out upon it. Then truly, the altar of brass shall be prepared for use at my will.'

¹⁶  And so Uriah, the priest, acted in accord with all that king Ahaz had instructed to him.

¹⁷  Then king Ahaz took away the engraved bases, and the basin that was upon them. And he took down the sea from the bronze oxen, which were holding it up. And he positioned it upon a layer of pavement stone.

¹⁸  Also, the canopy for the Sabbath, which he had built in the temple, and the exterior entrance of the king, he converted into the temple of the Lord, because of the king of the Assyrians.

¹⁹  Now the rest of the words of Ahaz that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?
