2 Chronicles 33

KJV

1  Manasseh⁴⁵¹⁹ was twelve^{8147 6240} years⁸¹⁴¹ old¹¹²¹ when he began to reign,⁴⁴²⁷ and he reigned⁴⁴²⁷ fifty²⁵⁷² and five²⁵⁶⁸ years⁸¹⁴¹ in Jerusalem:³³⁸⁹

2  But did⁶²¹³ that which was evil⁷⁴⁵¹ in the sight⁵⁸⁶⁹ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ like unto the abominations⁸⁴⁴¹ of the heathen,¹⁴⁷¹ whom⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ had cast out³⁴²³ before^{4480 6440} the children¹¹²¹ of Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

3  For he built¹¹²⁹ again^{7725 853} the high places¹¹¹⁶ which⁸³⁴ Hezekiah³¹⁶⁹ his father¹ had broken down,⁵⁴²² and he reared up⁶⁹⁶⁵ altars⁴¹⁹⁶ for Baalim,¹¹⁶⁸ and made⁶²¹³ groves,⁸⁴² and worshiped⁷⁸¹² all³⁶⁰⁵ the host⁶⁶³⁵ of heaven,⁸⁰⁶⁴ and served⁵⁶⁴⁷ them.

4  Also he built¹¹²⁹ altars⁴¹⁹⁶ in the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ whereof⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ had said,⁵⁵⁹ In Jerusalem³³⁸⁹ shall my name⁸⁰³⁴ be¹⁹⁶¹ forever.⁵⁷⁶⁹

5  And he built¹¹²⁹ altars⁴¹⁹⁶ for all³⁶⁰⁵ the host⁶⁶³⁵ of heaven⁸⁰⁶⁴ in the two⁸¹⁴⁷ courts²⁶⁹¹ of the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸

6  And he¹⁹³¹ caused ⁸⁵³ his children¹¹²¹ to pass⁵⁶⁷⁴ through the fire⁷⁸⁴ in the valley¹⁵¹⁶ of the son¹¹²¹ of Hinnom:²⁰¹¹ also he observed times,⁶⁰⁴⁹ and used enchantments,⁵¹⁷² and used witchcraft,³⁷⁸⁴ and dealt with⁶²¹³ a familiar spirit,¹⁷⁸ and with wizards:³⁰⁴⁹ he wrought⁶²¹³ much⁷²³⁵ evil⁷⁴⁵¹ in the sight⁵⁸⁶⁹ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ to provoke him to anger.³⁷⁰⁷

7  And he set^{7760 853} a carved image,⁶⁴⁵⁹ the idol⁵⁵⁶⁶ which⁸³⁴ he had made,⁶²¹³ in the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of God,⁴³⁰ of which⁸³⁴ God⁴³⁰ had said⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ David¹⁷³² and to⁴¹³ Solomon⁸⁰¹⁰ his son,¹¹²¹ In this²⁰⁸⁸ house,¹⁰⁰⁴ and in Jerusalem,³³⁸⁹ which⁸³⁴ I have chosen⁹⁷⁷ before all^{4480 3605} the tribes⁷⁶²⁶ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ will I put^{7760 853} my name⁸⁰³⁴ forever:⁵⁸⁶⁵

8  Neither³⁸⁰⁸ will I any more³²⁵⁴ remove^{5493 853} the foot⁷²⁷² of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ from out of^{4480 5921} the land¹²⁷ which⁸³⁴ I have appointed⁵⁹⁷⁵ for your fathers;¹ so that^{7535 518} they will take heed⁸¹⁰⁴ to do^{6213 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ I have commanded⁶⁶⁸⁰ them, according to the whole³⁶⁰⁵ law⁸⁴⁵¹ and the statutes²⁷⁰⁶ and the ordinances⁴⁹⁴¹ by the hand³⁰²⁷ of Moses.⁴⁸⁷²

9  So Manasseh⁴⁵¹⁹ made ⁸⁵³ Judah³⁰⁶³ and the inhabitants³⁴²⁷ of Jerusalem³³⁸⁹ to err,⁸⁵⁸² and to do⁶²¹³ worse⁷⁴⁵¹ than⁴⁴⁸⁰ the heathen,¹⁴⁷¹ whom⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ had destroyed⁸⁰⁴⁵ before^{4480 6440} the children¹¹²¹ of Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

10  And the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ spoke¹⁶⁹⁶ to⁴¹³ Manasseh,⁴⁵¹⁹ and to⁴¹³ his people:⁵⁹⁷¹ but they would not³⁸⁰⁸ hearken.⁷¹⁸¹

11  Wherefore the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ brought⁹³⁵ upon^{5921 853} them the captains⁸²⁶⁹ of the host of⁶⁶³⁵ the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Assyria,⁸⁰⁴ which⁸³⁴ took^{3920 853} Manasseh⁴⁵¹⁹ among the thorns,²³³⁶ and bound⁶³¹ him with fetters,⁵¹⁷⁸ and carried¹⁹⁸⁰ him to Babylon.⁸⁹⁴

12  And when he was in affliction,⁶⁸⁸⁷ he besought^{2470 853} the LORD^{6440 3068} his God,⁴³⁰ and humbled himself³⁶⁶⁵ greatly³⁹⁶⁶ before^{4480 6440} the God⁴³⁰ of his fathers,¹

13  And prayed⁶⁴¹⁹ unto⁴¹³ him: and he was entreated⁶²⁷⁹ of him, and heard⁸⁰⁸⁵ his supplication,⁸⁴⁶⁷ and brought him again⁷⁷²⁵ to Jerusalem³³⁸⁹ into his kingdom.⁴⁴³⁸ Then Manasseh⁴⁵¹⁹ knew³⁰⁴⁵ that³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ he¹⁹³¹ was God.⁴³⁰

14  Now after³¹⁰ this³⁶⁵¹ he built¹¹²⁹ a wall²³⁴⁶ without²⁴³⁵ the city⁵⁸⁹² of David,¹⁷³² on the west side⁴⁶²⁸ of Gihon,¹⁵²¹ in the valley,⁵¹⁵⁸ even to the entering in⁹³⁵ at the fish¹⁷⁰⁹ gate⁸¹⁷⁹ and compassed about⁵⁴³⁷ Ophel,⁶⁰⁷⁷ and raised it up a very great height,^{1361 3966} and put⁷⁷⁶⁰ captains⁸²⁶⁹ of war²⁴²⁸ in all³⁶⁰⁵ the fenced¹²¹⁹ cities⁵⁸⁹² of Judah.³⁰⁶³

15  And he took away^{5493 853} the strange⁵²³⁶ gods,⁴³⁰ and the idol⁵⁵⁶⁶ out of the house^{4480 1004} of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and all³⁶⁰⁵ the altars⁴¹⁹⁶ that⁸³⁴ he had built¹¹²⁹ in the mount²⁰²² of the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and in Jerusalem,³³⁸⁹ and cast⁷⁹⁹³ them out of²³⁵¹ the city.⁵⁸⁹²

16  And he repaired^{1129 853} the altar⁴¹⁹⁶ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ and sacrificed²⁰⁷⁶ thereon⁵⁹²¹ peace⁸⁰⁰² offerings²⁰⁷⁷ and thank offerings,⁸⁴²⁶ and commanded⁵⁵⁹ Judah³⁰⁶³ to serve^{5647 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

17  Nevertheless⁶¹ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ did sacrifice²⁰⁷⁶ still⁵⁷⁵⁰ in the high places,¹¹¹⁶ yet unto the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ their God⁴³⁰ only.⁷⁵³⁵

18  Now the rest³⁴⁹⁹ of the acts of¹⁶⁹⁷ Manasseh,⁴⁵¹⁹ and his prayer⁸⁶⁰⁵ unto⁴¹³ his God,⁴³⁰ and the words¹⁶⁹⁷ of the seers²³⁷⁴ that spoke¹⁶⁹⁶ to⁴¹³ him in the name⁸⁰³⁴ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ behold,²⁰⁰⁹ they are written in⁵⁹²¹ the book¹⁶⁹⁷ of the kings⁴⁴²⁸ of Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

19  His prayer⁸⁶⁰⁵ also, and how God was entreated⁶²⁷⁹ of him, and all³⁶⁰⁵ his sin,²⁴⁰³ and his trespass,⁴⁶⁰⁴ and the places⁴⁷²⁵ wherein⁸³⁴ he built¹¹²⁹ high places,¹¹¹⁶ and set up⁵⁹⁷⁵ groves⁸⁴² and graven images,⁶⁴⁵⁶ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ he was humbled:³⁶⁶⁵ behold,²⁰⁰⁹ they are written³⁷⁸⁹ among⁵⁹²¹ the sayings¹⁶⁹⁷ of the seers.²³³⁵

20  So Manasseh⁴⁵¹⁹ slept⁷⁹⁰¹ with⁵⁹⁷³ his fathers,¹ and they buried⁶⁹¹² him in his own house:¹⁰⁰⁴ and Amon⁵²⁶ his son¹¹²¹ reigned⁴⁴²⁷ in his stead.⁸⁴⁷⁸

21  Amon⁵²⁶ was two⁸¹⁴⁷ and twenty⁶²⁴² years⁸¹⁴¹ old¹¹²¹ when he began to reign,⁴⁴²⁷ and reigned⁴⁴²⁷ two⁸¹⁴⁷ years⁸¹⁴¹ in Jerusalem.³³⁸⁹

22  But he did⁶²¹³ that which was evil⁷⁴⁵¹ in the sight⁵⁸⁶⁹ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ as⁸³⁴ did⁶²¹³ Manasseh⁴⁵¹⁹ his father:¹ for Amon⁵²⁶ sacrificed²⁰⁷⁶ unto all³⁶⁰⁵ the carved images⁶⁴⁵⁶ which⁸³⁴ Manasseh⁴⁵¹⁹ his father¹ had made,⁶²¹³ and served⁵⁶⁴⁷ them;

23  And humbled not himself^{3808 3665} before^{4480 6440} the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ as Manasseh⁴⁵¹⁹ his father¹ had humbled himself;³⁶⁶⁵ but³⁵⁸⁸ Amon⁵²⁶ trespassed⁸¹⁹ more and more.⁷²³⁵

24  And his servants⁵⁶⁵⁰ conspired⁷¹⁹⁴ against⁵⁹²¹ him, and slew⁴¹⁹¹ him in his own house.¹⁰⁰⁴

25  But the people⁵⁹⁷¹ of the land⁷⁷⁶ slew^{5221 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ them that had conspired⁷¹⁹⁴ against⁵⁹²¹ king⁴⁴²⁸ Amon;⁵²⁶ and the people⁵⁹⁷¹ of the land⁷⁷⁶ made Josiah his son king^{4427 853 2977 1121} in his stead.⁸⁴⁷⁸

1 ὢν δέκα δύο ἐτῶν Μανασσης ἐν τῷ βασιλεῦσαι αὐτὸν καὶ πεντήκοντα πέντε ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ

2 καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ πονηρὸν ἐναντίον κυρίου ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν βδελυγμάτων τῶν ἐθνῶν οὓς ἐξωλέθρευσεν κύριος ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ

3 καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν τὰ ὑψηλά ἃ κατέσπασεν Εζεκιας ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔστησεν στήλας ταῖς Βααλιμ καὶ ἐποίησεν ἄλση καὶ προσεκύνησεν πάσῃ τῇ στρατιᾷ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἐδούλευσεν αὐτοῖς

4 καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν θυσιαστήρια ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου οὗ εἶπεν κύριος ἐν Ιερουσαλημ ἔσται τὸ ὄνομά μου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα

5 καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν θυσιαστήρια πάσῃ τῇ στρατιᾷ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐν ταῖς δυσὶν αὐλαῖς οἴκου κυρίου

6 καὶ αὐτὸς διήγαγεν τὰ τέκνα αὐτοῦ ἐν πυρὶ ἐν Γαι-βαναι-εννομ καὶ ἐκληδονίζετο καὶ οἰωνίζετο καὶ ἐφαρμακεύετο καὶ ἐποίησεν ἐγγαστριμύθους καὶ ἐπαοιδούς ἐπλήθυνεν τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ πονηρὸν ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ παροργίσαι αὐτόν

7 καὶ ἔθηκεν τὸ γλυπτὸν καὶ τὸ χωνευτόν εἰκόνα ἣν ἐποίησεν ἐν οἴκῳ θεοῦ οὗ εἶπεν ὁ θεὸς πρὸς Δαυιδ καὶ πρὸς Σαλωμων υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τούτῳ καὶ Ιερουσαλημ ἣν ἐξελεξάμην ἐκ πασῶν φυλῶν Ισραηλ θήσω τὸ ὄνομά μου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα

8 καὶ οὐ προσθήσω σαλεῦσαι τὸν πόδα Ισραηλ ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ἧς ἔδωκα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν πλὴν ἐὰν φυλάσσωνται τοῦ ποιῆσαι πάντα ἃ ἐνετειλάμην αὐτοῖς κατὰ πάντα τὸν νόμον καὶ τὰ προστάγματα καὶ τὰ κρίματα ἐν χειρὶ Μωυσῆ

9 καὶ ἐπλάνησεν Μανασσης τὸν Ιουδαν καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν Ιερουσαλημ τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ πονηρὸν ὑπὲρ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη ἃ ἐξῆρεν κύριος ἀπὸ προσώπου υἱῶν Ισραηλ

10 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος ἐπὶ Μανασση καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἐπήκουσαν

11 καὶ ἤγαγεν κύριος ἐπ᾽ αὐτοὺς τοὺς ἄρχοντας τῆς δυνάμεως βασιλέως Ασσουρ καὶ κατέλαβον τὸν Μανασση ἐν δεσμοῖς καὶ ἔδησαν αὐτὸν ἐν πέδαις καὶ ἤγαγον εἰς Βαβυλῶνα

12 καὶ ὡς ἐθλίβη ἐζήτησεν τὸ πρόσωπον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐταπεινώθη σφόδρα ἀπὸ προσώπου θεοῦ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ

13 καὶ προσηύξατο πρὸς αὐτόν καὶ ἐπήκουσεν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπήκουσεν τῆς βοῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν αὐτὸν εἰς Ιερουσαλημ ἐπὶ τὴν βασιλείαν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔγνω Μανασσης ὅτι κύριος αὐτός ἐστιν ὁ θεός

14 καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ᾠκοδόμησεν τεῖχος ἔξω τῆς πόλεως Δαυιδ ἀπὸ λιβὸς κατὰ Γιων ἐν τῷ χειμάρρῳ καὶ ἐκπορευομένων τὴν πύλην τὴν κυκλόθεν καὶ εἰς τὸ Οφλα καὶ ὕψωσεν σφόδρα καὶ κατέστησεν ἄρχοντας τῆς δυνάμεως ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσιν ταῖς τειχήρεσιν ἐν Ιουδα

15 καὶ περιεῖλεν τοὺς θεοὺς τοὺς ἀλλοτρίους καὶ τὸ γλυπτὸν ἐξ οἴκου κυρίου καὶ πάντα τὰ θυσιαστήρια ἃ ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐν ὄρει οἴκου κυρίου καὶ ἐν Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ἔξω τῆς πόλεως

16 καὶ κατώρθωσεν τὸ θυσιαστήριον κυρίου καὶ ἐθυσίασεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸ θυσίαν σωτηρίου καὶ αἰνέσεως καὶ εἶπεν τῷ Ιουδα τοῦ δουλεύειν κυρίῳ θεῷ Ισραηλ

17 πλὴν ὁ λαὸς ἔτι ἐπὶ τῶν ὑψηλῶν πλὴν κύριος ὁ θεὸς αὐτῶν

18 καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Μανασση καὶ ἡ προσευχὴ αὐτοῦ ἡ πρὸς τὸν θεὸν καὶ λόγοι τῶν ὁρώντων λαλούντων πρὸς αὐτὸν ἐπ᾽ ὀνόματι κυρίου θεοῦ Ισραηλ ἰδοὺ ἐπὶ λόγων

19 προσευχῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ ὡς ἐπήκουσεν αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ ἁμαρτίαι αὐτοῦ καὶ αἱ ἀποστάσεις αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ τόποι ἐφ᾽ οἷς ᾠκοδόμησεν τὰ ὑψηλὰ καὶ ἔστησεν ἐκεῖ ἄλση καὶ γλυπτὰ πρὸ τοῦ ἐπιστρέψαι ἰδοὺ γέγραπται ἐπὶ τῶν λόγων τῶν ὁρώντων

20 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Μανασσης μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν ἐν παραδείσῳ οἴκου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ἀντ᾽ αὐτοῦ Αμων υἱὸς αὐτοῦ

21 ὢν εἴκοσι καὶ δύο ἐτῶν Αμων ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτὸν καὶ δύο ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ

22 καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον κυρίου ὡς ἐποίησεν Μανασσης ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσιν τοῖς εἰδώλοις οἷς ἐποίησεν Μανασσης ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ ἔθυεν Αμων καὶ ἐδούλευσεν αὐτοῖς

23 καὶ οὐκ ἐταπεινώθη ἐναντίον κυρίου ὡς ἐταπεινώθη Μανασσης ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ ὅτι υἱὸς αὐτοῦ Αμων ἐπλήθυνεν πλημμέλειαν

24 καὶ ἐπέθεντο αὐτῷ οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπάταξαν αὐτὸν ἐν οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ

25 καὶ ἐπάταξεν ὁ λαὸς τῆς γῆς τοὺς ἐπιθεμένους ἐπὶ τὸν βασιλέα Αμων καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ὁ λαὸς τῆς γῆς τὸν Ιωσιαν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾽ αὐτοῦ

1 Duodecim annorum erat Manasses cum regnare cœpisset, et quinquaginta quinque annis regnavit in Jerusalem.

2 Fecit autem malum coram Domino, juxta abominationes gentium quas subvertit Dominus coram filiis Israël:

3 et conversus instauravit excelsa quæ demolitus fuerat Ezechias pater ejus: construxitque aras Baalim, et fecit lucos, et adoravit omnem militiam cæli, et coluit eam.

4 Ædificavit quoque altaria in domo Domini, de qua dixerat Dominus: In Jerusalem erit nomen meum in æternum.

5 Ædificavit autem ea cuncto exercitui cæli in duobus atriis domus Domini.

6 Transireque fecit filios suos per ignem in valle Benennom: observabat somnia, sectabatur auguria, maleficis artibus inserviebat, habebat secum magos et incantatores, multaque mala operatus est coram Domino ut irritaret eum.

7 Sculptile quoque et conflatile signum posuit in domo Dei, de qua locutus est Deus ad David, et ad Salomonem filium ejus, dicens: In domo hac, et in Jerusalem quam elegi de cunctis tribubus Israël, ponam nomen meum in sempiternum.

8 Et moveri non faciam pedem Israël de terra quam tradidi patribus eorum: ita dumtaxat si custodierint facere quæ præcepi eis, cunctamque legem, et cæremonias atque judicia, per manum Moysi.

9 Igitur Manasses seduxit Judam, et habitatores Jerusalem, ut facerent malum super omnes gentes quas subverterat Dominus a facie filiorum Israël.

10 Locutusque est Dominus ad eum, et ad populum illius, et attendere noluerunt.

11 Idcirco superinduxit eis principes exercitus regis Assyriorum: ceperuntque Manassen, et vinctum catenis atque compedibus duxerunt in Babylonem.

12 Qui postquam coangustatus est, oravit Dominum Deum suum: et egit pœnitentiam valde coram Deo patrum suorum.

13 Deprecatusque est eum, et obsecravit intente: et exaudivit orationem ejus, reduxitque eum Jerusalem in regnum suum, et cognovit Manasses quod Dominus ipse esset Deus.

14 Post hæc ædificavit murum extra civitatem David ad occidentem Gihon in convalle, ab introitu portæ piscium per circuitum usque ad Ophel, et exaltavit illum vehementer: constituitque principes exercitus in cunctis civitatibus Juda munitis:

15 et abstulit deos alienos, et simulacrum de domo Domini: aras quoque, quas fecerat in monte domus Domini et in Jerusalem: et projecit omnia extra urbem.

16 Porro instauravit altare Domini, et immolavit super illud victimas, et pacifica, et laudem: præcepitque Judæ ut serviret Domino Deo Israël.

17 Attamen adhuc populus immolabat in excelsis Domino Deo suo.

18 Reliqua autem gestorum Manasse, et obsecratio ejus ad Deum suum, verba quoque videntium qui loquebantur ad eum in nomine Domini Dei Israël, continentur in sermonibus regum Israël.

19 Oratio quoque ejus et exauditio, et cuncta peccata atque contemptus, loca etiam in quibus ædificavit excelsa, et fecit lucos et statuas antequam ageret pœnitentiam, scripta sunt in sermonibus Hozai.

20 Dormivit ergo Manasses cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in domo sua: regnavitque pro eo filius ejus Amon.

21 Viginti duorum annorum erat Amon cum regnare cœpisset, et duobus annis regnavit in Jerusalem.

22 Fecitque malum in conspectu Domini, sicut fecerat Manasses pater ejus: et cunctis idolis quæ Manasses fuerat fabricatus, immolavit atque servivit.

23 Et non est reveritus faciem Domini, sicut reveritus est Manasses pater ejus, et multo majora deliquit.

24 Cumque conjurassent adversus eum servi sui, interfecerunt eum in domo sua.

25 Porro reliqua populi multitudo, cæsis iis qui Amon percusserant, constituit regem Josiam filium ejus pro eo.
