2 Kings 16:14-20 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

14. And the brasen altar which had been before the Lord, he caused to be moved in front of the forefront of the house, from between the altar and the house of the Lord, and he put it beside the altar towards the Aquilon.

15. And King Ahaz commanded Urijah, the priest, saying, Upon the great altar burn the morning burnt offering and the evening present and the king’s burnt sacrifice and his present, and likewise the burnt offering of all the people of the land and their present and their drink offerings, and sprinkle upon it all the blood of the burnt offering and all the blood of the sacrifice; and the brasen altar shall be mine to enquire by.

16. Thus did Urijah, the priest, according to all that King Ahaz commanded him.

17. And King Ahaz cut off the borders of the bases and removed the lavers from off them and took down the sea from off the brasen oxen that were under it and put it upon a pavement of stones.

18. And the covert for the sabbath that they had built in the house and the king’s entry outside, he moved behind the house of the Lord, for the sake of the king of Assyria.

19. Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

20. And Ahaz slept with his fathers and was buried with his fathers in the city of David; and Hezekiah, his son, reigned in his stead.
