2 Chronicles 33:10-20

10And Jehovah spoke to Manasseh and to his people; but they did not hearken.

11And Jehovah brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh with fetters, and bound him with chains of brass, and carried him to Babylon.

12And when he was in affliction, he besought Jehovah his 1God, and humbled himself greatly before the 2God of his fathers,

13and prayed to him. And he was intreated of him and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that Jehovah, he was 3God.

14And after this he built the outer wall of the city of David, on the west, toward Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance of the fish-gate, and carried it round Ophel, and raised it up a very great height; and he put captains of war in all the fortified cities of Judah.

15And he removed the strange 4gods, and the idol out of the house of Jehovah, and all the altars that he had built on the mount of the house of Jehovah and in Jerusalem, and cast [them] out of the city.

16And he reinstated the altar of Jehovah, and sacrificed on it peace-offerings and thank-offerings, and commanded Judah to serve Jehovah the 5God of Israel.

17Nevertheless, the people sacrificed still on the high places, although to Jehovah their 6God only.

18And the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer to his 7God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of Jehovah the 8God of Israel, behold, they [are written] in the acts of the kings of Israel.

19And his prayer, and [how 9God] was intreated of him, and all his sin and his unfaithfulness, and the places in which he built high places, and set up Asherahs and graven images, before he was humbled, behold, they are written among the words of Hozai.

20And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house; and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
