2 Kings 23:7-9

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁷ He also broke down the houses of the ^(A)male cult prostitutes which were in the house of the Lord, where ^(B)the women were weaving ^[a]hangings for the Asherah. ⁸ Then he brought all the priests from the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from ^(C)Geba to Beersheba; and he broke down the high places of the gates which were at the entrance of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on one’s left at the city gate. ⁹ Nevertheless ^(D)the priests of the high places did not go up to the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem, but they ate unleavened bread among their brothers.
