1 # Manasseh <04519> was twelve <08147> <06240> years <08141> old <01121> when he began to reign <04427> (8800), and reigned <04427> (8804) fifty <02572> and five <02568> years <08141> in Jerusalem <03389>. And his mother's <0517> name <08034> was Hephzibah <02657>.
2 And he did <06213> (8799) that which was evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, after the abominations <08441> of the heathen <01471>, whom the LORD <03068> cast out <03423> (8689) before <06440> the children <01121> of Israel <03478>.
3 For he built up <01129> (8799) again <07725> (8799) the high places <01116> which Hezekiah <02396> his father <01> had destroyed <06> (8765); and he reared up <06965> (8686) altars <04196> for Baal <01168>, and made <06213> (8799) a grove <0842>, as did <06213> (8804) Ahab <0256> king <04428> of Israel <03478>; and worshipped <07812> (8691) all the host <06635> of heaven <08064>, and served <05647> (8799) them.
4 And he built <01129> (8804) altars <04196> in the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, of which the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8804), In Jerusalem <03389> will I put <07760> (8799) my name <08034>.
5 And he built <01129> (8799) altars <04196> for all the host <06635> of heaven <08064> in the two <08147> courts <02691> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>.
6 And he made his son <01121> pass <05674> (8689) through the fire <0784>, and observed times <06049> (8782) , and used enchantments <05172> (8765), and dealt <06213> (8804) with familiar spirits <0178> and wizards <03049>: he wrought <06213> (8800) much <07235> (8689) wickedness <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, to provoke him to anger <03707> (8687).
7 And he set <07760> (8799) a graven image <06459> of the grove <0842> that he had made <06213> (8804) in the house <01004>, of which the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8804) to David <01732>, and to Solomon <08010> his son <01121>, In this house <01004>, and in Jerusalem <03389>, which I have chosen <0977> (8804) out of all tribes <07626> of Israel <03478>, will I put <07760> (8799) my name <08034> for ever <05769>:
8 Neither will I make the feet <07272> of Israel <03478> move <05110> (8687) any more <03254> (8686) out of the land <0127> which I gave <05414> (8804) their fathers <01>; only if they will observe <08104> (8799) to do <06213> (8800) according to all that I have commanded <06680> (8765) them, and according to all the law <08451> that my servant <05650> Moses <04872> commanded <06680> (8765) them.
9 But they hearkened <08085> (8804) not: and Manasseh <04519> seduced <08582> (8686) them to do <06213> (8800) more evil <07451> than did the nations <01471> whom the LORD <03068> destroyed <08045> (8689) before <06440> the children <01121> of Israel <03478>.
10 # And the LORD <03068> spake <01696> (8762) by <03027> his servants <05650> the prophets <05030>, saying <0559> (8800),
11 Because Manasseh <04519> king <04428> of Judah <03063> hath done <06213> (8804) these abominations <08441> , and hath done wickedly <07489> (8689) above all that the Amorites <0567> did <06213> (8804), which were before <06440> him, and hath made Judah <03063> also to sin <02398> (8686) with his idols <01544>:
12 Therefore thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>, Behold, I am bringing <0935> (8688) such evil <07451> upon Jerusalem <03389> and Judah <03063>, that whosoever heareth <08085> (8802) of it, both <08147> his ears <0241> shall tingle <06750> (8799).
13 And I will stretch <05186> (8804) over Jerusalem <03389> the line <06957> of Samaria <08111>, and the plummet <04949> of the house <01004> of Ahab <0256>: and I will wipe <04229> (8804) Jerusalem <03389> as a man wipeth <04229> (8799) a dish <06747>, wiping <04229> (8804) it, and turning <02015> (8804) it upside down <06440>.
14 And I will forsake <05203> (8804) the remnant <07611> of mine inheritance <05159>, and deliver <05414> (8804) them into the hand <03027> of their enemies <0341> (8802); and they shall become a prey <0957> and a spoil <04933> to all their enemies <0341> (8802);
15 Because they have done <06213> (8804) that which was evil <07451> in my sight <05869>, and have provoked <04480> me to anger <03707> (8688), since the day <03117> their fathers <01> came forth <03318> (8804) out of Egypt <04714>, even unto this day <03117>.
16 Moreover Manasseh <04519> shed <08210> (8804) innocent <05355> blood <01818> very <03966> much <07235> (8687), till he had filled <04390> (8765) Jerusalem <03389> from one end <06310> to another <06310>; beside his sin <02403> wherewith he made Judah <03063> to sin <02398> (8689), in doing <06213> (8800) that which was evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>.
17 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Manasseh <04519>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), and his sin <02403> that he sinned <02398> (8804), are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063>?
18 And Manasseh <04519> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers <01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) in the garden <01588> of his own house <01004>, in the garden <01588> of Uzza <05798>: and Amon <0526> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
19 # Amon <0526> was twenty <06242> and two <08147> years <08141> old <01121> when he began to reign <04427> (8800), and he reigned <04427> (8804) two <08147> years <08141> in Jerusalem <03389>. And his mother's <0517> name <08034> was Meshullemeth <04922>, the daughter <01323> of Haruz <02743> of Jotbah <03192>.
20 And he did <06213> (8799) that which was evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, as his father <01> Manasseh <04519> did <06213> (8804).
21 And he walked <03212> (8799) in all the way <01870> that his father <01> walked in <01980> (8804) , and served <05647> (8799) the idols <01544> that his father <01> served <05647> (8804), and worshipped <07812> (8691) them:
22 And he forsook <05800> (8799) the LORD <03068> God <0430> of his fathers <01>, and walked <01980> (8804) not in the way <01870> of the LORD <03068>.
23 And the servants <05650> of Amon <0526> conspired <07194> (8799) against him, and slew <04191> (8686) the king <04428> in his own house <01004>.
24 And the people <05971> of the land <0776> slew <05221> (8686) all them that had conspired <07194> (8802) against king <04428> Amon <0526>; and the people <05971> of the land <0776> made Josiah <02977> his son <01121> king <04427> (8686) in his stead.
25 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Amon <0526> which he did <06213> (8804), are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063>?
26 And he was buried <06912> (8799) in his sepulchre <06900> in the garden <01588> of Uzza <05798>: and Josiah <02977> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
