2 Kings 16:10-16

2 Kings 16:10-16 NCV

Then King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria. Ahaz saw an altar at Damascus, and he sent plans and a pattern of this altar to Uriah the priest. So Uriah the priest built an altar, just like the plans King Ahaz had sent him from Damascus. Uriah finished the altar before King Ahaz came back from Damascus. When the king arrived from Damascus, he saw the altar and went near and offered sacrifices on it. He burned his burnt offerings and grain offerings and poured out his drink offering. He also sprinkled the blood of his fellowship offerings on the altar. Ahaz moved the bronze altar that was before the LORD at the front of the Temple. It was between Ahaz’s altar and the Temple of the LORD, but he put it on the north side of his altar. King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, “On the large altar burn the morning burnt offering, the evening grain offering, the king’s burnt offering and grain offering, and the whole burnt offering, the grain offering, and the drink offering for all the people of the land. Sprinkle on the altar all the blood of the burnt offering and of the sacrifice. But I will use the bronze altar to ask questions of God.” So Uriah the priest did everything as King Ahaz commanded him.
