1 And it will be in the third year to Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel, reigned Hezekiah son of Ahaz, king of Judah. 2 The son of twenty and five years, was he in his reigning; and twenty and, nine years reigned he in Jerusalem and his mothers name Abi, the daughter of Zachariah. 3 And he will do the straight in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all which, David his father did. 4 He removed the heights, and he brake in pieces the statues, and he cut off the image, and he beat down the serpent of brass which Moses made: for till those days the sons of Israel were burning incense to it and they called it brass. 5 And he trusted in Jehovah the God of Israel; and after him was not like him among all the kings of Judah, and who were before him. 6 And he will cleave upon Jehovah he turned not away from after him, and he will watch his commands which Jehovah commanded Moses. 7 And Jehovah was with him: in all which he will go forth he will prosper; and he will rebel against the king of Assur, and not serve him. 2 Kings 18:1-7, Smith's Literal Translation.
