Context of 2 Chronicles 33:18

16He built the Lord’s altar and sacrificed fellowship offerings and thank offerings on it. And he told Judah to serve the Lord God of Israel. 17The people continued to sacrifice at the illegal places of worship, but they sacrificed only to the Lord their God. Everything else about Manasseh—including his prayer to his God and the words that the seers spoke to him in the name of the Lord God of Israel—are in the records of the kings of Israel. 19His prayer and how God accepted it are written in the records of Hozai. The things he did before he humbled himself are also written there. This includes all his sins and unfaithfulness and the places where he built illegal worship sites and set up idols and poles dedicated to the goddess Asherah. 20Manasseh lay down in death with his ancestors. They buried him in his own palace. His son Amon succeeded him as king.
