New King James Version
2 Kings 18:3-6
New King James Version
3 And he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David had done.
4 (A)He removed the [a]high places and broke the sacred pillars, cut down the [b]wooden image and broke in pieces the (B)bronze serpent that Moses had made; for until those days the children of Israel burned incense to it, and called it [c]Nehushtan. 5 He (C)trusted in the Lord God of Israel, (D)so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor who were before him. 6 For he (E)held fast to the Lord; he did not depart from following Him, but kept His commandments, which the Lord had commanded Moses.

2 Kings 18:3-6
New International Version
3 He did what was right(A) in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father David(B) had done. 4 He removed(C) the high places,(D) smashed the sacred stones(E) and cut down the Asherah poles. He broke into pieces the bronze snake(F) Moses had made, for up to that time the Israelites had been burning incense to it. (It was called Nehushtan.[a])
5 Hezekiah trusted(G) in the Lord, the God of Israel. There was no one like him among all the kings of Judah, either before him or after him. 6 He held fast(H) to the Lord and did not stop following him; he kept the commands the Lord had given Moses.
