2 Chronicles 33:12-22

12When 1he was in distressH6887, he entreatedH2470 the LordH3068 his GodH430 and 2humbledH3665 himself greatlyH3966 beforeH4480H6440 the GodH430 of his fathersH1. 13When he prayedH6419 to Him, 3He was movedH6279 by his entreatyH6279 and heardH8085 his supplicationH8467, and broughtH7725 him againH7725 to JerusalemH3389 to his kingdomH4438. Then ManassehH4519 4knewH3045 that the LordH3068 was GodH430.

14Now afterH310 thisH3651 he builtH1129 the outerH2435 wallH2346 of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 on the westH4628 sideH4628 of 5GihonH1521, in the valleyH5158, even to the entranceH935 of the 6FishH1709 GateH8179; and he encircledH5437 the 7OphelH6077 with it and madeH1361 it veryH3966 highH1361. Then he putH7760 armyH2428 commandersH8269 in allH3605 the fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892 of JudahH3063. 15He also 8removedH5493 the foreignH5236 godsH430 and the idolH5566 from the houseH1004 of the LordH3068, as well as allH3605 the altarsH4196 whichH834 he had builtH1129 on the mountainH2022 of the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 and in JerusalemH3389, and he threwH7993 them outsideH2351 the cityH5892. 16He setH3559 up the altarH4196 of the LordH3068 and sacrificedH2076 9peaceH8002 offeringsH8002 and thankH8426 offeringsH8426 on it; and he orderedH559 JudahH3063 to serveH5647 the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478. 17NeverthelessH61 10the peopleH5971 stillH5750 sacrificedH2076 in the highH1116 placesH1116, although onlyH7534 to the LordH3068 their GodH430.

18Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of ManassehH4519 even 11his prayerH8605 to his GodH430, and the wordsH1697 of 12the seersH2374 who spokeH1696 to him in the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, beholdH2009, they are amongH5921 the recordsH1697 of the kingsH4428 of 13IsraelH3478. 19His prayerH8605 also and 14how God was entreatedH6279 by him, and allH3605 his sinH2403, his unfaithfulnessH4604, and 15the sitesH4725 on whichH834 he builtH1129 highH1116 placesH1116 and erectedH5975 the AsherimH842 and the carvedH6456 imagesH6456, beforeH6440 he humbledH3665 himself, beholdH2009, they are writtenH3789 in the recordsH1697 of the 16HozaiH2335. 20So ManassehH4519 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and they buriedH6912 him in his own houseH1004. And AmonH526 his sonH1121 becameH4427 kingH4427 in his placeH8478.

2117AmonH526 was twenty-twoH6242H8147 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he becameH4427 kingH4427, and he reignedH4427 twoH8147 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389. 22He didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068 as ManassehH4519 his fatherH1 18had doneH6213, and AmonH526 sacrificedH2076 to allH3605 19the carvedH6456 imagesH6456 whichH834 his fatherH1 ManassehH4519 had madeH6213, and he servedH5647 them.
