Instead, he followed the example of the kings of Israel. He cast metal images for the worship of Baal.

却行以色列诸王的道，又铸造巴力的像，

却行以色列诸王的道，又铸造诸巴力的像，

却行以色列诸王的道，又铸造诸巴力的像，

反而步以色列诸王的后尘，又铸造巴力神像。

他却随从以色列诸王的道路，又为巴力铸造偶像；

卻行以色列諸王的道，又鑄造巴力的像，

卻行以色列諸王的道，又鑄造諸巴力的像，

卻行以色列諸王的道，又鑄造諸巴力的像，

反而步以色列諸王的後塵，又鑄造巴力神像。

他卻隨從以色列諸王的道路，又為巴力鑄造偶像；

卻走以色列諸王的路。竟為巴力造了鑄像；

循以色列諸王之道、為巴力鑄像、

從以色列列王所為、鑄偶像、奉事巴力。

從以色列諸王所為、造偶像、奉事巴力、

The Israelites did evil in the Lord’s sight and served the images of Baal.

They dragged out the sacred pillar used in the worship of Baal and burned it.They smashed the sacred pillar and wrecked the temple of Baal, converting it into a public toilet, as it remains to this day.In this way, Jehu destroyed every trace of Baal worship from Israel.

They abandoned the Lord to serve Baal and the images of Ashtoreth.

But Jehoram followed the example of the kings of Israel and was as wicked as King Ahab, for he had married one of Ahab’s daughters. So Jehoram did what was evil in the Lord’s sight.

O Israel, I will wipe the many names of Baal from your lips, and you will never mention them again.

And as though it were not enough to follow the sinful example of Jeroboam, he married Jezebel, the daughter of King Ethbaal of the Sidonians, and he began to bow down in worship of Baal.First Ahab built a temple and an altar for Baal in Samaria.Then he set up an Asherah pole. He did more to provoke the anger of the Lord, the God of Israel, than any of the other kings of Israel before him.

“ Do not put your trust in idols or make metal images of gods for yourselves. I am the Lord your God.

Ahaziah also followed the evil example of King Ahab’s family, for his mother encouraged him in doing wrong.He did what was evil in the Lord’s sight, just as Ahab’s family had done. They even became his advisers after the death of his father, and they led him to ruin.

I will punish her for all those times when she burned incense to her images of Baal, when she put on her earrings and jewels and went out to look for her lovers but forgot all about me,” says the Lord.
