Now it came to pass, after H310 that Amaziah H558 was come H935 from the slaughter H5221 of the Edomites, H130 that he brought H935 the gods H430 of the children H1121 of Seir, H8165 and set them up H5975 to be his gods, H430 and bowed down H7812 himself before H6440 them, and burned incense H6999 unto them.
