52 You must drive away all the inhabitants of the land from before you and destroy all their carvings of stone+ and all their metal statues,*+ and you should demolish all their sacred high places.+

2 But the people were still sacrificing on the high places,+ because until that time a house for the name of Jehovah had not yet been built.+

14 In the second year of Je·hoʹash+ the son of Je·hoʹa·haz the king of Israel, Am·a·ziʹah the son of King Je·hoʹash of Judah became king.

4 However, the high places were not removed,+ and the people were still sacrificing and making sacrificial smoke on the high places.+
