22 Now in the time of his distress this same King Ahaz ^abecame yet more unfaithful to Yahweh. 23 ^aIndeed, he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus which had struck him, and said, “^bBecause the gods of the kings of Aram helped them, I will sacrifice to them that they may help me.” But they became the stumbling of him and all Israel. 24 Ahaz gathered together the utensils of the house of God. Then he ^acut the utensils of the house of God in pieces; and he ^bclosed the doors of the house of Yahweh and ^cmade altars for himself in every corner of Jerusalem. 25 Now in each and every city of Judah he made high places to offer offerings in smoke to other gods, and provoked Yahweh, the God of his fathers, to anger.
