2 Kings 23:9-11
Living Bible
9 However, these priests[a] did not serve at the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem, even though they ate with the other priests.
10 Then the king destroyed the altar of Topheth in the valley of the sons of Hinnom, so that no one could ever again use it to burn his son or daughter to death as a sacrifice to Molech. 11 He tore down the statues of horses and chariots located near the entrance of the Temple, next to the quarters of Nathan-melech the eunuch. These had been dedicated by former kings of Judah to the sun god.
