2 Kings 18:4 · KJV
He removed the high places, and brake the pillars, and cut down the Asherah: and he brake in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made; for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it; and he called it Nehushtan.
He had the high places taken away, and the stone pillars broken to bits, and the Asherah cut down; and the brass snake which Moses had made was crushed to powder at his order, because in those days the children of Israel had offerings burned before it, and he gave it the name Nehushtan.
Αυτος αφηρεσε τους υψηλους τοπους και κατεθραυσε τα αγαλματα και κατεκοψε τα αλση και κατεσυντριψε τον χαλκινον οφιν, τον οποιον εκαμεν ο Μωυσης· διοτι εως των ημερων εκεινων οι υιοι του Ισραηλ εθυμιαζον εις αυτον· και εκαλεσεν αυτον Νεουσθαν.
He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan.
