22 And in the time of his distress—he adds to trespass against YHWH (this King Ahaz), 23 and he sacrifices to the gods of Damascus [which were] those striking him, and says, “Because the gods of the kings of Aram are helping them, I sacrifice to them, and they help me,” and they have been to him to cause him to stumble, and to all Israel. 24 And Ahaz gathers the vessels of the house of God, and cuts in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and shuts the doors of the house of YHWH, and makes altars for himself in every corner in Jerusalem. 25 And in each and every city of Judah he has made high places to make incense to other gods, and provokes YHWH, God of his fathers. 2 Chronicles 28:22-25, Literal Standard Version.
