2 Chronicles 33
33:1Manasseh was a son being twelve years old in his taking reign, and fifty-five years he reigned in Jerusalem.
33:2And he acted wickedly before the lord according to all the abominations of the nations which the lord removed from in front of the sons of Israel.
33:3And he returned and built the high places which Hezekiah his father tore down. And he set up altars to the Baals, and he made sacred groves, and he did obeisance to all the military of the heaven, and he served to them.
33:4And he built altars in the house of the lord, in which the lord said, My name will be in Jerusalem into the eon.
33:5And he built altars to all the military of the heaven in the two courtyards of the house of the lord.
33:6And he led his children in fire in the ground of the Son of Hinnom. And he prognosticated, and foretold, and administered potions, and established ones who deliver oracles, and enchanters. And he multiplied to act wickedly before the lord, to provoke him to anger.
33:7And he put the carved and the molten image, which he made, in the house of God, in which God said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I chose from out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name there into the eon;
33:8and I shall not proceed to shake the foot of Israel from the land of which I gave to their fathers, if only they guard to do all things which I gave charge to them, according to all the law, and the orders, and the judgments given by the hand of Moses.
33:9And Manasseh misled Judah and the ones dwelling in Jerusalem, to act wickedly above all the nations which the lord removed from in front of the sons of Israel.
33:10And the lord spoke with Manasseh, and unto his people, and they did not listen.
33:11And the lord led upon them the rulers of the force of the king of Assyria. And they overtook Manasseh in bonds, and they tied him in shackles, and they led him into Babylon.
33:12And as he was afflicted, he sought the face of the lord his God, and was humbled exceedingly from in front of the God of his fathers.
33:13And he prayed to him, and he heeded him, and he heeded his yelling, and he returned him unto Jerusalem over his kingdom. And Manasseh knew that the lord -- he is God.
33:14And after these things, he built a wall outside the city of David, from the southwest of Gihon, by the rushing stream going forth by the fishing gate -- a circuit to the Ophel, and he raised it high exceedingly. And he placed rulers of the force in all the walled cities in Judah.
33:15And he removed the gods of the aliens, and the carved image from out of the house of the lord, and all the altars which he built on the mountain of the house of the lord, and in Jerusalem; and he cast them outside the city.
33:16And he set up the altar of the lord, and he sacrificed upon it a sacrifice of deliverance offering and a praise offering, and he told Judah to serve to the lord, to the God of Israel.
33:17Only still the people sacrificed upon the high places, except to the lord their God.
33:18And the rest of the words of Manasseh, and his prayer to God, and the words of the seers, of the ones speaking to him in the name of the lord God of Israel, behold, they are upon the words of the kings of Israel.
33:19And his prayer, and as God heeded him, and all his sins, and his defections, and the places upon which he built on them the high places, and established there sacred groves, and carved images, before he returned, behold, they are written by the words of the seers.
33:20And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they entombed him in the garden of his house. And Amon his son reigned instead of him.
33:21Amon was a son being twenty and two years old in his taking reign, and two years he reigned in Jerusalem.
33:22And he did the wicked thing before the lord as did Manasseh his father. And to all the idols which Manasseh his father made, Amon sacrificed and served to them.
33:23And he was not humbled before the lord as Manasseh his father was humbled; for his son Amon multiplied in trespassing.
33:24And his servants attacked him, and struck him in his house.
33:25But the people of the land struck the ones attacking against king Amon. And the people of the land gave reign to Josiah his son instead of him.
