2 Chronicles 33:9-13

9Manasseh led Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem astray, to do more evil than the nations whom the Lord destroyed before the people of Israel.

10The Lord spoke to Manasseh and to his people, but they paid no attention.

11Therefore the Lord brought upon them the commanders of the army of the king of Assyria, who captured Manasseh with hooks and bound him with chains of bronze and brought him to Babylon.

12And when he was in distress, he entreated the favor of the Lord his God and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.

13He prayed to him, and God was moved by his entreaty and heard his plea and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the Lord was God.
