New Testament

2 Kings 16:11-16 Modern English Version (MEV)

11. Uriah the priest built an altar according to all that King Ahaz had sent from Damascus. Thus Uriah the priest worked until King Ahaz came from Damascus.

12. When the king came back from Damascus and saw the altar, the king approached the altar and made offerings on it.

13. He offered his burnt offering and his grain offering, poured out his libations, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings upon the altar.

14. And the bronze altar that was before the Lord he moved from the front of the house, from between the altar and the house of the Lord. He put it on the north side of the new altar.

15. Then King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, “Upon the great altar offer the morning burnt offering, the evening grain offering, the king’s burnt offering, and his grain offering with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, their grain offering, and their libations. Sprinkle on it all the blood of the burnt offering and all the blood of the sacrifice, and the bronze altar will be for me to inquire by.”

16. So Uriah the priest did everything that King Ahaz commanded.
