2 Chronicles 34:3-8

For in the eighth
<08083>
year
<08141>
of his reign
<04427> (8800)_,
while he was yet young
<05288>_,
he began
<02490> (8689)
to seek
<01875> (8800)
after the God
<0430>
of David
<01732>
his father
<01>_:
and in the twelfth
<08147> <06240>
year
<08141>
he began
<02490> (8689)
to purge
<02891> (8763)
Judah
<03063>
and Jerusalem
<03389>
from the high places
<01116>_,
and the groves
<0842>_,
and the carved images
<06456>_,
and the molten images
<04541>_.
And they brake down
<05422> (8762)
the altars
<04196>
of Baalim
<01168>
in his presence
<06440>_;
and the images
<02553>_,
that [were] on high above them
<04605>_,
he cut down
<01438> (8765)_;
and the groves
<0842>_,
and the carved images
<06456>_,
and the molten images
<04541>_,
he brake in pieces
<07665> (8765)_,
and made dust
<01854> (8689)
[of them], and strowed
<02236> (8799)
[it] upon
<06440>
the graves
<06913>
of them that had sacrificed
<02076> (8802)
unto them. {the images: or, the sun images} {graves: Heb. face of the graves}
And he burnt
<08313> (8804)
the bones
<06106>
of the priests
<03548>
upon their altars
<04196>_,
and cleansed
<02891> (8762)
Judah
<03063>
and Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And [so did he] in the cities
<05892>
of Manasseh
<04519>_,
and Ephraim
<0669>_,
and Simeon
<08095>_,
even unto Naphtali
<05321>_,
with their mattocks
<02719>
round about
<05439>_.
{mattocks: or, mauls}
And when he had broken down
<05422> (8762)
the altars
<04196>
and the groves
<0842>_,
and had beaten
<03807> (8765)
the graven images
<06456>
into powder
<01854> (8687)_,
and cut down
<01438> (8765)
all the idols
<02553>
throughout all the land
<0776>
of Israel
<03478>_,
he returned
<07725> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
{into...: Heb. to make powder}
Now in the eighteenth
<08083> <06240>
year
<08141>
of his reign
<04427> (8800)_,
when he had purged
<02891> (8763)
the land
<0776>_,
and the house
<01004>_,
he sent
<07971> (8804)
Shaphan
<08227>
the son
<01121>
of Azaliah
<0683>_,
and Maaseiah
<04641>
the governor
<08269>
of the city
<05892>_,
and Joah
<03098>
the son
<01121>
of Joahaz
<03099>
the recorder
<02142> (8688)_,
to repair
<02388> (8763)
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
his God
<0430>_.
