1
King Manasseh of Judah
Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king of Judah, and he ruled in Jerusalem for fifty-five years.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem:
2 Following the disgusting practices of the nations whom the Lord had driven out of the land as his people advanced, Manasseh sinned against the Lord. But did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, like unto the abominations of the heathen, whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel.
3 He rebuilt the pagan places of worship that his father Hezekiah had destroyed. He built altars for the worship of Baal, made images of the goddess Asherah, and worshiped the stars. For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down, and he reared up altars for Baalim, and made groves, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
4 He built pagan altars in the Temple, the place that the Lord had said was where he should be worshiped forever. Also he built altars in the house of the Lord, whereof the Lord had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever.
5 In the two courtyards of the Temple he built altars for the worship of the stars. And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
6 He sacrificed his sons in Hinnom Valley as burnt offerings. He practiced divination and magic and consulted fortunetellers and mediums. He sinned greatly against the Lord and stirred up his anger. And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him to anger.
7 He placed an image in the Temple, the place about which God had said to David and his son Solomon: “Here in Jerusalem, in this Temple, is the place that I have chosen out of all the territory of the twelve tribes of Israel as the place where I am to be worshiped. And he set a carved image, 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 before all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever:
8 And if the people of Israel will obey all my commands and keep the whole Law that my servant Moses gave them, then I will not allow them to be driven out of the land that I gave to their ancestors.” Neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from out of the land which I have appointed for your fathers; so that they will take heed to do all that I have commanded them, according to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinances by the hand of Moses.
9 Manasseh led the people of Judah to commit even greater sins than those committed by the nations whom the Lord had driven out of the land as his people advanced. So Manasseh made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to err, and to do worse than the heathen, whom the Lord had destroyed before the children of Israel.
10
Manasseh Repents
Although the Lord warned Manasseh and his people, they refused to listen.
And the Lord spake to Manasseh, and to his people: but they would not hearken.
11 So the Lord let the commanders of the Assyrian army invade Judah. They captured Manasseh, stuck hooks in him, put him in chains, and took him to Babylon. Wherefore the Lord brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, which took Manasseh among the thorns, and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
12 In his suffering he became humble, turned to the Lord his God, and begged him for help. And when he was in affliction, he besought the Lord his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers,
13 God accepted Manasseh's prayer and answered it by letting him go back to Jerusalem and rule again. This convinced Manasseh that the Lord was God. And prayed unto him: and he was intreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the Lord he was God.
14 After this, Manasseh increased the height of the outer wall on the east side of David's City, from a point in the valley near Gihon Spring north to the Fish Gate and the area of the city called Ophel. He also stationed an army officer in command of a unit of troops in each of the fortified cities of Judah. Now after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah.
15 He removed from the Temple the foreign gods and the image that he had placed there, and the pagan altars that were on the hill where the Temple stood and in other places in Jerusalem; he took all these things outside the city and threw them away. And he took away the strange gods, and the idol out of the house of the Lord, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of the Lord, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.
16 He also repaired the altar where the Lord was worshiped, and he sacrificed fellowship offerings and thanksgiving offerings on it. He commanded all the people of Judah to worship the Lord, the God of Israel. And he repaired the altar of the Lord, and sacrificed thereon peace offerings and thank offerings, and commanded Judah to serve the Lord God of Israel.
17 Although the people continued to offer sacrifices at other places of worship, they offered them only to the Lord. (,) Nevertheless the people did sacrifice still in the high places, yet unto the Lord their God only.
18
The End of Manasseh's Reign
Everything else that Manasseh did, the prayer he made to his God, and the messages of the prophets who spoke to him in the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, are all recorded in The History of the Kings of Israel.
Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer unto his God, and the words of the seers that spake to him in the name of the Lord God of Israel, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel.
19 The king's prayer and God's answer to it, and an account of the sins he committed before he repented—the evil he did, the pagan places of worship and the symbols of the goddess Asherah that he made and the idols that he worshiped—are all recorded in The History of the Prophets. His prayer also, and how God was intreated of him, and all his sin, and his trespass, and the places wherein he built high places, and set up groves and graven images, before he was humbled: behold, they are written among the sayings of the seers.
20 Manasseh died and was buried at the palace, and his son Amon succeeded him as king. () So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house: and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
21
King Amon of Judah
Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king of Judah, and he ruled in Jerusalem for two years.
Amon was two and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned two years in Jerusalem.
22 Like his father Manasseh, he sinned against the Lord, and he worshiped the idols that his father had worshiped. But he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as did Manasseh his father: for Amon sacrificed unto all the carved images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them;
23 But unlike his father, he did not become humble and turn to the Lord; he was even more sinful than his father had been. And humbled not himself before the Lord, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but Amon trespassed more and more.
24 Amon's officials plotted against him and assassinated him in the palace. And his servants conspired against him, and slew him in his own house.
25 The people of Judah killed Amon's assassins and made his son Josiah king. But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
