2 Kings 21:3-5

Common English Bible

³ He rebuilt the shrines that his father Hezekiah had destroyed, set up altars for Baal, and made a sacred pole,^[a] just as Israel’s King Ahab had done. He bowed down to all the stars in the sky and worshipped them. ⁴ He even built altars in the two courtyards of the Lord’s temple—the very place the Lord was speaking of when he said: “I will put my name in Jerusalem.” ⁵ Manasseh built altars for all the stars in the sky in both courtyards of the Lord’s temple.
