³³ I will do this because they have^[a] forsaken me and worshiped^(A) Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Molek the god of the Ammonites, and have not walked^(B) in obedience to me, nor done what is right in my eyes, nor kept my decrees^(C) and laws as David, Solomon’s father, did.

¹³ because they forsook^(A) him and served Baal and the Ashtoreths.^(B)

¹³ The king also desecrated the high places that were east of Jerusalem on the south of the Hill of Corruption—the ones Solomon^(A) king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the vile goddess of the Sidonians, for Chemosh the vile god of Moab, and for Molek the detestable^(B) god of the people of Ammon.^(C)
