2 Chronicles 33:12-22
12And when he was in afflictionH6887, he besoughtH2470 YhwhH3068 his GodH430, and humbledH3665 himself greatlyH3966 beforeH6440 the GodH430 of his fathersH1, 13And prayedH6419 unto him: and he was intreatedH6279 of him, and heardH8085 his supplicationH8467, and brought him againH7725 to JerusalemH3389 into his kingdomH4438. Then ManassehH4519 knewH3045 that YhwhH3068 he was GodH430. 14Now after thisH310 he builtH1129 a wallH2346 withoutH2435 the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, on the west sideH4628 of GihonH1521, in the valleyH5158, even to the entering inH935 at the fishH1709 gateH8179, and compassedH5437 about OphelH6077, and raised it upH1361 a very great heightH3966, and putH7760 captainsH8269 of warH2428 in all the fencedH1219 citiesH5892 of JudahH3063.1 15And he took awayH5493 the strangeH5236 godsH430, and the idolH5566 out of the houseH1004 of YhwhH3068, and all the altarsH4196 that he had builtH1129 in the mountH2022 of the houseH1004 of YhwhH3068, and in JerusalemH3389, and castH7993 them outH2351 of the cityH5892. 16And he repairedH1129 the altarH4196 of YhwhH3068, and sacrificedH2076 thereon peaceH8002 offeringsH2077 and thank offeringsH8426, and commandedH559 JudahH3063 to serveH5647 YhwhH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478. 17NeverthelessH61 the peopleH5971 did sacrificeH2076 still in the high placesH1116, yet unto YhwhH3068 their GodH430 only.
18Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of ManassehH4519, and his prayerH8605 unto his GodH430, and the wordsH1697 of the seersH2374 that spakeH1696 to him in the nameH8034 of YhwhH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, behold, they are written in the bookH1697 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478. 19His prayerH8605 also, and how God was intreatedH6279 of him, and all his sinH2403, and his trespassH4604, and the placesH4725 wherein he builtH1129 high placesH1116, and set upH5975 grovesH842 and graven imagesH6456, beforeH6440 he was humbledH3665: behold, they are writtenH3789 among the sayingsH1697 of the seersH2335H2374.2
20So ManassehH4519 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and they buriedH6912 him in his own houseH1004: and AmonH526 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
21AmonH526 was twoH8147 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and reignedH4427 twoH8147 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389. 22But he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of YhwhH3068, as didH6213 ManassehH4519 his fatherH1: for AmonH526 sacrificedH2076 unto all the carved imagesH6456 which ManassehH4519 his fatherH1 had madeH6213, and servedH5647 them;
