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.

²² And I commanded the Levites that ^(A)they should cleanse themselves, and that they should go and guard the gates, to sanctify the Sabbath day.

Remember me, O my God, concerning this also, and spare me according to the greatness of Your mercy!
