Context of 2 Chronicles 33:19

17However, the people still sacrificed on the high places, although only to the Lord their God. 18Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the Lord God of Israel, behold, they are among the records of the kings of Israel. His prayer also and how God was moved by him, and all his sin, his unfaithfulness, and the sites on which he built high places and erected the Asherim and the carved images, before he humbled himself, behold, they are written in the records of Hozai. 20So Manasseh lay down with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. And his son Amon became king in his place. 21Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned for two years in Jerusalem.

Commentaries on 2 Chronicles 33:19

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 19His prayer also - What is called the Prayer of Manasseh, king of Judah, when he was holden captive in Babylon, being found among our apocryphal books, I have inserted it at the end of the chapter, without either asserting or thinking that it is the identical prayer which this penitent king used when a captive in Babylon.
