2 Chronicles 33:5-15

5For he builtH1129 altarsH4196 for allH3605 the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 in 1the twoH8147 courtsH2691 of the houseH1004 of the LordH3068. 62He made his sonsH1121 passH5674 through the fireH784 in the valleyH1516 of Ben-hinnomH1121H2011; and he practicedH6049 witchcraftH6049, usedH5172 divinationH5172, practicedH3784 sorceryH3784 and 3dealtH6213 with mediumsH178 and spiritistsH3049. He didH6213 muchH7235 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, provokingH3707 Him to anger. 7Then he putH7760 4the carvedH6459 imageH6459 of the idolH5566 whichH834 he had madeH6213 in the houseH1004 of GodH430, of whichH834 GodH430 had saidH559 to DavidH1732 and to SolomonH8010 his sonH1121, “5In thisH2088 houseH1004 and in JerusalemH3389, whichH834 I have chosenH977 from allH3605 the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, I will putH7760 My nameH8034 foreverH5769; 8and I will not againH3254 removeH5493 the footH7272 of IsraelH3478 from the landH127 6whichH834 I have appointedH5975 for your fathersH1, ifH518 onlyH7534 they will observeH8104 to doH6213 allH3605 that I have commandedH6680 them according to allH3605 the lawH8451, the statutesH2706 and the ordinancesH4941 given throughH3027 MosesH4872.” 9Thus ManassehH4519 misledH8582 JudahH3063 and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 to doH6213 moreH4480 evilH7451 thanH4480 the nationsH1471 whomH834 the LordH3068 destroyedH8045 beforeH4480H6440 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478.

10The LordH3068 spokeH1696 to ManassehH4519 and his peopleH5971, but 7they paidH7181 noH3808 attentionH7181. 118Therefore the LordH3068 broughtH935 the commandersH8269 of the armyH6635 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 againstH5921 them, and they capturedH3920 ManassehH4519 with 9hooksH2336, 10boundH631 him with bronzeH5178 chains and tookH1980 him to BabylonH894. 12When 11he was in distressH6887, he entreatedH2470 the LordH3068 his GodH430 and 12humbledH3665 himself greatlyH3966 beforeH4480H6440 the GodH430 of his fathersH1. 13When he prayedH6419 to Him, 13He was movedH6279 by his entreatyH6279 and heardH8085 his supplicationH8467, and broughtH7725 him againH7725 to JerusalemH3389 to his kingdomH4438. Then ManassehH4519 14knewH3045 that the LordH3068 was GodH430.

14Now afterH310 thisH3651 he builtH1129 the outerH2435 wallH2346 of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 on the westH4628 sideH4628 of 15GihonH1521, in the valleyH5158, even to the entranceH935 of the 16FishH1709 GateH8179; and he encircledH5437 the 17OphelH6077 with it and madeH1361 it veryH3966 highH1361. Then he putH7760 armyH2428 commandersH8269 in allH3605 the fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892 of JudahH3063. 15He also 18removedH5493 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.
