2 Kings 23:14-16
Modern English Version
14 He broke the standing stones, cut down the Asherah poles, and filled their sites with human bones.
15 Moreover, the altar that was at Bethel and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin, had made, both that altar and the high place he tore down. Then he burned the high place and crushed it to powder, and he burned the Asherah. 16 As Josiah turned, he saw the tombs that were there on the mount. He took the bones out of the tombs and burned them on the altar and defiled it, according to the word of the Lord that the man of God proclaimed, the one who announced these things.

2 Kings 23:14-16
New International Version
14 Josiah smashed(A) the sacred stones and cut down the Asherah poles and covered the sites with human bones.(B)
15 Even the altar(C) at Bethel, the high place made by Jeroboam(D) son of Nebat, who had caused Israel to sin—even that altar and high place he demolished. He burned the high place and ground it to powder, and burned the Asherah pole also. 16 Then Josiah(E) looked around, and when he saw the tombs that were there on the hillside, he had the bones removed from them and burned on the altar to defile it, in accordance(F) with the word of the Lord proclaimed by the man of God who foretold these things.
