9 Then Samuel took a sucking lamb and offered it up as a burnt offering, a whole offering,+ to Jehovah; and Samuel began calling to Jehovah for aid in behalf of Israel,+ and Jehovah proceeded to answer him.+

8 And you must go down ahead of me to Gilʹgal;+ and, look! I am going down to you to offer up burnt sacrifices, to render up communion+ sacrifices. Seven+ days you should keep waiting until my coming to you, and I shall certainly let you know what you should do.”

14 And the high places+ he did not remove.+ Nevertheless, Aʹsa’s heart itself proved to be complete with Jehovah all his days.+

43 And he kept walking in all the way of Aʹsa his father. He did not turn aside from it, by doing what was right in the eyes of Jehovah.+ Only the high places themselves did not disappear.* The people were still sacrificing and making sacrificial smoke on the high places.+

26 Then David built there an altar+ to Jehovah and offered up burnt sacrifices and communion sacrifices, and he proceeded to call upon Jehovah,+ who now answered him with fire+ from the heavens upon the altar of burnt offering.

3 Then Solʹo·mon and all the congregation* with him went to the high place that was at Gibʹe·on;+ for there was where the tent of meeting+ of the [true] God,* which Moses the servant+ of Jehovah had made in the wilderness, happened to be.
