Manasseh
was twelve
years
old
when he became
king, and he reigned
fifty-five
years
in Jerusalem.
2
He did
evil
in the sight
of
the LORD
according to the abominations
of the nations
whom
the LORD
dispossessed
before
the sons
of Israel.
3
For he rebuilt
the high places
which
Hezekiah
his father
had broken down;
he also erected
altars
for the Baals
and made
Asherim,
and worshiped
all
the host
of heaven
and served
them.
4
He built
altars
in the house
of
the LORD
of which
the LORD
had said,
"My name
shall be in Jerusalem
forever."
5
For he built
altars
for all
the host
of heaven
in the two
courts
of the house
of the LORD.
6
He made his sons
pass
through the fire
in the valley
of Ben-hinnom;
and he practiced witchcraft,
used divination,
practiced sorcery
and dealt
with mediums
and spiritists.
He did
much
evil
in the sight
of the LORD,
provoking
Him to anger.
7
Then he put
the carved image
of the idol
which
he had made
in the
house
of
God
,
of
which
God
had said
to David
and to Solomon
his son,
"In this
house
and in Jerusalem,
which
I have chosen
from all
the tribes
of Israel,
I will put
My name
forever;
8
and I will not again
remove
the foot
of Israel
from the land
which
I have appointed
for your fathers,
if
only
they will observe
to do
all
that I have commanded
them according to
all
the law,
the statutes
and the ordinances
given through
Moses."
9
Thus Manasseh
misled
Judah
and the inhabitants
of Jerusalem
to do
more
evil
than
the nations
whom
the LORD
destroyed
before
the sons
of Israel.
10
The LORD
spoke
to Manasseh
and his people,
but they paid
no
attention.
11
Therefore the LORD
brought
the commanders
of the army
of the king
of Assyria
against
them, and they captured
Manasseh
with hooks,
bound
him with bronze
chains and took
him to Babylon.
12
When he was in distress,
he entreated
the LORD
his God
and humbled
himself greatly
before
the God
of his fathers.
13
When he prayed
to Him, He was moved by his entreaty
and heard
his supplication,
and brought him again
to Jerusalem
to his kingdom.
Then Manasseh
knew
that the LORD
was God.
14
Now after
this
he built
the outer
wall
of the city
of David
on the west side
of Gihon,
in the valley,
even to the entrance
of the Fish
Gate;
and he encircled
the Ophel
with it and made
it very
high.
Then he put
army
commanders
in all
the fortified
cities
of Judah.
15
He also removed
the foreign
gods
and the idol
from the house
of the LORD
,
as well as all
the altars
which
he had built
on the mountain
of the house
of the LORD
and in Jerusalem,
and he threw
them outside
the city.
16
He set
up the altar
of
the LORD
and sacrificed
peace offerings
and thank offerings
on it; and he ordered
Judah
to serve
the LORD
God
of Israel.
17
Nevertheless
the people
still
sacrificed
in the high places,
although only
to the LORD
their God.
18
Now the rest
of the acts
of Manasseh
even his prayer
to his
God
,
and the words
of the seers
who spoke
to him in the name
of the LORD
God
of Israel,
behold,
they are among
the records
of the kings
of Israel.
19
His prayer
also and how God was entreated
by him, and all
his sin,
his unfaithfulness,
and the sites
on which
he built
high places
and erected
the Asherim
and the carved images,
before
he humbled
himself, behold,
they are written
in the records
of the Hozai.
20
So Manasseh
slept
with his fathers,
and they buried
him in his own house.
And Amon
his son
became king
in his place.
21
Amon
was twenty-
two
years
old
when he became
king, and he reigned
two
years
in Jerusalem.
22
He did
evil
in the sight
of the LORD
as
Manasseh
his father
had done,
and Amon
sacrificed
to all
the carved images
which
his father
Manasseh
had made,
and he served
them.
23
Moreover, he did not humble
himself before
the LORD
as his father
Manasseh
had done,
but Amon
multiplied
guilt.
24
Finally his servants
conspired
against
him and put him to death
in his own house.
25
But the people
of the land
killed
all
the conspirators
against
King
Amon,
and the people
of the land
made
Josiah
his son
king
in his place.
