11 And Urijah223 the priest3548 built1129 an altar4196 according to all that king4428 Ahaz271 had sent7971 from Damascus:1834 so Urijah223 the priest3548 made6213it against king4428 Ahaz271 came935 from Damascus.183412 And when the king4428 was come935 from Damascus,1834 the king4428 saw7200 the altar:4196 and the king4428 approached7126 to the altar,4196 and offered5927 thereon.
13 And he burnt6999 his{Heb. which were his} burnt offering5930 and his meat offering,4503 and poured5258 his drink offering,5262 and sprinkled2236 the blood1818 of his peace offerings,8002 upon the altar.419614 And he brought7126 also the brasen5178 altar,4196 which was before6440 the LORD,3068 from the forefront6440 of the house,1004 from between the altar4196 and the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and put5414 it on the north6828 side3409 of the altar.419615 And king4428 Ahaz271 commanded6680 Urijah223 the priest,3548 saying,559 Upon the great1419 altar4196 burn6999 the morning1242 burnt offering,5930 and the evening6153 meat offering,4503 and the king's4428 burnt sacrifice,5930 and his meat offering,4503 with the burnt offering5930 of all the people5971 of the land,776 and their meat offering,4503 and their drink offerings;5262 and sprinkle2236 upon it all the blood1818 of the burnt offering,5930 and all the blood1818 of the sacrifice:2077 and the brasen5178 altar4196 shall be for me to enquire1239by.16 Thus did6213 Urijah223 the priest,3548 according to all that king4428 Ahaz271 commanded.6680
2 Kings 16:17 And king4428 Ahaz271 cut off7112 the borders4526 of the bases,4350 and removed5493 the laver3595 from off them; and took down3381 the sea3220 from off the brasen5178 oxen1241 that were under it, and put5414 it upon a pavement4837 of stones.6818 And the covert43294329 for the sabbath7676 that they had built1129 in the house,1004 and the king's4428 entry3996 without,2435 turned5437 he from the house1004 of the LORD3068 for6440 the king4428 of Assyria.804
