2 Chronicles 33:1-9
11ManassehH4519 was twelveH8147H6240 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he becameH4427 kingH4427, and he reignedH4427 for fifty-fiveH2572 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389. 22He didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068 according to the abominationsH8441 of the nationsH1471 whomH834 the LordH3068 dispossessedH3423 beforeH4480H6440 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478. 3For 3he rebuiltH7725H1129 the highH1116 placesH1116 whichH834 his fatherH1 HezekiahH2396 had tornH5422 downH5422; 4he also setH6965 upH6965 altarsH4196 for the BaalsH1168 and madeH6213 5AsherimH842, and he worshipedH2331 allH3605 the heavenlyH8064 6lightsH6635 and servedH5647 them. 47He builtH1129 altarsH4196 in the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 of whichH834 the LordH3068 had saidH559, “My nameH8034 shall be 8in JerusalemH3389 foreverH5769.” 5He builtH1129 altarsH4196 for allH3605 the heavenlyH8064 9lightsH6635 in 10the twoH8147 courtyardsH2691 of the houseH1004 of the LordH3068. 611He also made his sonsH1121 passH5674 through the fireH784 in the ValleyH1516 of Ben-hinnomH1121H2011; and he practicedH6049 witchcraftH6049, usedH5172 divinationH5172, practicedH3784 sorceryH3784, and 12dealtH6213 with mediumsH178 and spiritistsH3049. He didH6213 muchH7235 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, provokingH3707 Him to angerH3707. 7Then he putH7760 13the carvedH6459 imageH6459 of the idolH5566 whichH834 he had madeH6213 in the houseH1004 of GodH430, of whichH834 GodH430 had saidH559 to DavidH1732 and his sonH1121 SolomonH8010, “14In 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 removeH5493 the footH7272 of IsraelH3478 againH3254 from the landH127 15whichH834 I have appointedH5975 for your fathersH1, ifH518 onlyH7534 they will takeH8104 careH8104 to doH6213 everythingH3605 that I have commandedH6680 them according to allH3605 the LawH8451, the statutesH2706, and the ordinancesH4941 given throughH3027 MosesH4872.” 9So ManassehH4519 encouragedH8582 JudahH3063 and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 to doH6213 moreH4480 evilH7451 thanH4480 the nationsH1471 whomH834 the LordH3068 destroyedH8045 beforeH4480H6440 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478.
