1ManassehH4519 was twelveH6240 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427; and he reignedH4427 fiveH2568 and fiftyH2572 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389: and his mother’sH517 nameH8034 was Hephzi-bah.

2And he didH6213 that whichH834 was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, after the abominationsH8441 of the heathen, whomH834 the LORDH3068 castH3423 outH3423 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.

3For he builtH1129 againH7725 the highH1116 placesH1116 whichH834 HezekiahH2396 his fatherH1 had destroyedH6; and he reared upH6965 altarsH4196 for BaalH1168, and madeH6213 an AsherahH842, as didH6213 AhabH256 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, and worshipped allH3605 the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, and servedH5647 them.

4And he builtH1129 altarsH4196 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, whereof the LORDH3068 saidH559, In JerusalemH3389 will I putH7760 my nameH8034.

5And he builtH1129 altarsH4196 for allH3605 the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 in the twoH8147 courts of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
