2 Chronicles 33:1-25

Manasseh
<04519>
[was] twelve
<08147> <06240>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_,
and he reigned
<04427> (8804)
fifty
<02572>
and five
<02568>
years
<08141>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_:
But did
<06213> (8799)
[that which was] evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
like unto the abominations
<08441>
of the heathen
<01471>_,
whom the LORD
<03068>
had cast out
<03423> (8689)
before
<06440>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
For he built
<01129> (8799)
again
<07725> (8799)
the high places
<01116>
which Hezekiah
<03169>
his father
<01>
had broken down
<05422> (8765)_,
and he reared up
<06965> (8686)
altars
<04196>
for Baalim
<01168>_,
and made
<06213> (8799)
groves
<0842>_,
and worshipped
<07812> (8691)
all the host
<06635>
of heaven
<08064>_,
and served
<05647> (8799)
them. {he built...: Heb. he returned and built}
Also he built
<01129> (8804)
altars
<04196>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
whereof the LORD
<03068>
had said
<0559> (8804)_,
In Jerusalem
<03389>
shall my name
<08034>
be for ever
<05769>_.
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>_.
And he caused
<05674> (0)
his children
<01121>
to pass through
<05674> (8689)
the fire
<0784>
in the valley
<01516>
of the son
<01121>
of Hinnom
<02011>_:
also he observed times
<06049> (8782)_,
and used enchantments
<05172> (8765)_,
and used witchcraft
<03784> (8765)_,
and dealt
<06213> (8804)
with a familiar spirit
<0178>_,
and with wizards
<03049>_:
he wrought
<06213> (8800)
much
<07235> (8689)
evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
to provoke him to anger
<03707> (8687)_.
And he set
<07760> (8799)
a carved image
<06459>_,
the idol
<05566>
which he had made
<06213> (8804)_,
in the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_,
of which God
<0430>
had 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)
before all the tribes
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>_,
will I put
<07760> (8799)
my name
<08034>
for ever
<05865>_:
Neither will I any more
<03254> (8686)
remove
<05493> (8687)
the foot
<07272>
of Israel
<03478>
from out
<05921>
of the land
<0127>
which I have appointed
<05975> (8689)
for your fathers
<01>_;
so that
<0518>
they will take heed
<08104> (8799)
to do
<06213> (8800)
all that I have commanded
<06680> (8765)
them, according to the whole law
<08451>
and the statutes
<02706>
and the ordinances
<04941>
by the hand
<03027>
of Moses
<04872>_.
So Manasseh
<04519>
made
<08582> (0)
Judah
<03063>
and the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jerusalem
<03389>
to err
<08582> (8686)_,
[and] to do
<06213> (8800)
worse
<07451>
than the heathen
<01471>_,
whom the LORD
<03068>
had destroyed
<08045> (8689)
before
<06440>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
spake
<01696> (8762)
to Manasseh
<04519>_,
and to his people
<05971>_:
but they would not hearken
<07181> (8689)_.
Wherefore the LORD
<03068>
brought
<0935> (8686)
upon them the captains of
<08269>
the host of
<06635>
the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_,
which took
<03920> (8799)
Manasseh
<04519>
among the thorns
<02336>_,
and bound him
<0631> (8799)
with fetters
<05178>_,
and carried
<03212> (8686)
him to Babylon
<0894>_.
{of the king: Heb. which were the king's} {fetters: or, chains}
And when he was in affliction
<06887> (8687)_,
he besought
<02470> (8765)
the LORD
<03068>
his God
<0430>_,
and humbled
<03665> (8735)
himself greatly
<03966>
before
<06440>
the God
<0430>
of his fathers
<01>_,
And prayed
<06419> (8691)
unto him: and he was intreated
<06279> (8735)
of him, and heard
<08085> (8799)
his supplication
<08467>_,
and brought him again
<07725> (8686)
to Jerusalem
<03389>
into his kingdom
<04438>_.
Then Manasseh
<04519>
knew
<03045> (8799)
that the LORD
<03068>
he [was] God
<0430>_.
Now after this
<0310>
he built
<01129> (8804)
a wall
<02346>
without
<02435>
the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_,
on the west side
<04628>
of Gihon
<01521>_,
in the valley
<05158>_,
even to the entering in
<0935> (8800)
at the fish
<01709>
gate
<08179>_,
and compassed
<05437> (8804)
about Ophel
<06077>_,
and raised it up
<01361> (8686)
a very great height
<03966>_,
and put
<07760> (8799)
captains
<08269>
of war
<02428>
in all the fenced
<01219> (8803)
cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_.
{Ophel: or, the tower}
And he took away
<05493> (8686)
the strange
<05236>
gods
<0430>_,
and the idol
<05566>
out of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and all the altars
<04196>
that he had built
<01129> (8804)
in the mount
<02022>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and cast
<07993> (8686)
[them] out
<02351>
of the city
<05892>_.
And he repaired
<01129> (8799)
the altar
<04196>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and sacrificed
<02076> (8799)
thereon peace
<08002>
offerings
<02077>
and thank offerings
<08426>_,
and commanded
<0559> (8799)
Judah
<03063>
to serve
<05647> (8800)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_.
Nevertheless
<061>
the people
<05971>
did sacrifice
<02076> (8802)
still in the high places
<01116>_,
[yet] unto the LORD
<03068>
their God
<0430>
only.
Now the rest
<03499>
of the acts
<01697>
of Manasseh
<04519>_,
and his prayer
<08605>
unto his God
<0430>_,
and the words
<01697>
of the seers
<02374>
that spake
<01696> (8764)
to him in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
behold, they [are written] in the book
<01697>
of the kings
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_.
His prayer
<08605>
also, and [how God] was intreated
<06279> (8736)
of him, and all his sin
<02403>_,
and his trespass
<04604>_,
and the places
<04725>
wherein he built
<01129> (8804)
high places
<01116>_,
and set up
<05975> (8689)
groves
<0842>
and graven images
<06456>_,
before
<06440>
he was humbled
<03665> (8736)_:
behold, they [are] written
<03789> (8803)
among the sayings
<01697>
of the seers
<02374> (8676) <02335>_.
{the seers: or, Hosai}
So Manasseh
<04519>
slept
<07901> (8799)
with his fathers
<01>_,
and they buried
<06912> (8799)
him in his own house
<01004>_:
and Amon
<0526>
his son
<01121>
reigned
<04427> (8799)
in his stead.
Amon
<0526>
[was] two
<08147>
and twenty
<06242>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_,
and reigned
<04427> (8804)
two
<08147>
years
<08141>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
But he did
<06213> (8799)
[that which was] evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
as did
<06213> (8804)
Manasseh
<04519>
his father
<01>_:
for Amon
<0526>
sacrificed
<02076> (8765)
unto all the carved images
<06456>
which Manasseh
<04519>
his father
<01>
had made
<06213> (8804)_,
and served
<05647> (8799)
them;
And humbled
<03665> (8738)
not himself before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
as Manasseh
<04519>
his father
<01>
had humbled
<03665> (8736)
himself; but Amon
<0526>
trespassed
<0819>
more and more
<07235> (8689)_.
{trespassed more and more: Heb. multiplied trespass}
And his servants
<05650>
conspired
<07194> (8799)
against him, and slew
<04191> (8686)
him in his own house
<01004>_.
But 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
<04427> (0)
Josiah
<02977>
his son
<01121>
king
<04427> (8686)
in his stead.
