2 Kings 18:6

For he clave to the Lord

from his worship, as the same paraphrase:

but kept his commandments, which the Lord commanded Moses;
both moral, ceremonial, and judicial.

5 Hezekiah trusted in the LORD, Israel's God. There was no one like him among all of Judah's kings—not before him and not after him.

6 He clung to the LORD and never deviated from him. He kept the commandments that the LORD had commanded Moses.

7 The LORD was with Hezekiah; he succeeded at everything he tried. He rebelled against Assyria's king and wouldn't serve him.
