人要把它帶到亞述去，作貢物獻給那裡的大王。以法蓮必受羞辱，以色列必因自己的計謀蒙羞。

亞哈斯王到大馬士革會見亞述王提革拉．毗列色，看見在大馬士革的祭壇。亞哈斯王就派人把祭壇的圖樣、結構和詳盡的做法送到烏利亞祭司那裡。於是烏利亞祭司按著亞哈斯王從大馬士革送回來的一切指示建造祭壇。在亞哈斯王從大馬士革回來以前，烏利亞祭司就照樣做了。王從大馬士革回來，看見了那祭壇，於是王走到祭壇旁邊，登上臺階，燒他的燔祭和素祭，又澆上他的奠祭，並且把他的平安祭牲的血灑在祭壇上。至於耶和華面前的銅祭壇，他把它從殿前，從新壇與耶和華殿中間移至新壇的北邊。亞哈斯王吩咐烏利亞祭司說：“要在這大祭壇上焚燒早晨的燔祭、黃昏的素祭、王的燔祭牲和素祭、所有國民的燔祭和素祭；也要在壇上澆上他們的奠祭，以及所有燔祭牲和平安祭牲的血。至於銅祭壇，我要用來求問神。”烏利亞祭司就照著亞哈斯王一切所吩咐的去行。亞哈斯又砍掉盆座的邊緣，把洗濯盆拿下來，又把銅海從馱著銅海的銅牛上取下來，放在鋪了石的地上。又因亞述王的緣故，他把耶和華殿裡為安息日而建造的廊子，和王從外邊進殿的廊子，從耶和華的殿內拆除。

現在，你為甚麼要到埃及去，喝西曷的水呢？你為甚麼要到亞述去，喝幼發拉底河的水呢？

他向擊敗了他的大馬士革的神獻祭，說：“亞蘭王的神幫助了他們，我也向它們獻祭，使它們也幫助我。”它們卻使他和以色列人滅亡。

以色列人又行了耶和華看為惡的事，服事眾巴力和亞斯他錄，以及亞蘭的神、西頓的神、摩押的神、亞捫人的神、非利士人的神；他們離棄了耶和華，不再服事他。

亞述王提革拉．毘尼色來到他那裡，不但沒有援助他，反倒欺壓他。亞哈斯取了耶和華殿裡和王宮中，以及眾領袖家裡的財寶，給了亞述王，但也無濟於事。

那時，亞哈斯王派人去求亞述王（按照《馬索拉文本》的絕大部分文本，“王”作“諸王”；現參照另一份文本和各古譯本翻譯；參20節和王下16:7）幫助他，

她貪戀亞述人，就是作總督和省長，穿著華美衣服的戰士，騎著馬的騎兵，全都是英俊的年輕人。我看見她被玷污了；她們姊妹兩人所行的路都是一樣。阿荷利巴又繼續行淫；她看見畫在牆上的人像，就是用鮮紅的顏料所畫的迦勒底人像，這些像的腰間束著腰帶，頭上有下垂的裹頭巾，他們看來像官長，有巴比倫人的樣子，迦勒底是他們出生之地。阿荷利巴的眼一看見，就戀慕他們，派遣使者到迦勒底去見他們。於是巴比倫人來，上了她愛情的床，與她行淫玷污了她；她被他們玷污以後，心就與他們疏遠。她既然顯露了她的淫行，露出了自己的下體，我的心就與她疏遠，好像我的心從前與她姊姊疏遠一樣。她還加倍行淫，懷念她幼年在埃及地行淫的日子。她戀慕她的情人，他們的下體像驢的下體；他們射精像馬一樣。這樣，你就渴想你幼年時的淫蕩；那時，埃及人撫弄過你的乳房，撫摩你年幼時的胸。

“阿荷拉嫁了我以後仍行邪淫，戀慕她的愛人，就是亞述的戰士。他們穿著紫色衣服，是作總督和省長的；他們都是英俊的年輕人，是騎著馬的騎兵。阿荷拉與這些亞述人中最美的男子行邪淫；她因自己所戀慕的每一個人和這些人的偶像玷污了自己。她沒有離棄在埃及時的淫亂；那時她年幼，人與她同睡，撫弄她處女的乳房，把他們的情慾發洩在她身上。因此我把她交在她的愛人手裡，就是她所戀慕的亞述人手裡。

“因為猶大王瑪拿西所作這些可憎惡的事，比在他以前的亞摩利人所行的惡更壞，並且以他的偶像使猶大人犯罪。
