2 Chronicles 24:17-19

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁷ And after the death of Joiada, the princes of Juda went in, and worshipped the king: and he was soothed by their services and hearkened to them.

¹⁸ And they forsook the temple of the Lord the God of their fathers, and served groves and idols, and wrath came upon Juda and Jerusalem for this sin.

¹⁹ And he sent prophets to them to bring them back to the Lord, and they would not give ear when they testified against them.
