Through his prophet Zephaniah, he stated: “I will stretch out my hand against Judah and against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and I will cut off from this place the remaining ones of the Baal, the name of the foreign - god priests along with the priests, and those who are bowing down upon the roofs to the army of the heavens, and those who are bowing down, making sworn oaths to Jehovah and making sworn oaths by Malcam. ” — Zephaniah 1: 4, 5.
ואת המשתחווים על הגגות לצבא השמים, ואת המשתחווים הנשבעים ליהוה והנשבעים במלכָּם ” (‏ צפניה א ’: 4, 5‏) .‏
