1 | Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. | 2Ch 32:33 2Ki 21:1-18 1Ch 3:13 Mt 1:10 |
2 | He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, after the abominations of the nations whom Yahweh cast out before the children of Israel. | 2Ch 28:3 2Ch 36:14 Lv 18:24-30 Lv 20:22 Lv 20:23 Dt 12:31 Dt 18:9 Dt 18:14 2Ki 17:11 2Ki 17:15 2Ki 21:2 2Ki 21:9 Ezr 9:14 Ps 106:35-40 Ezk 11:12 |
3 | For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he reared up altars for the Baals, and made Asheroth, and worshipped all the host of the sky, and served them. | Ec 2:19 Ec 9:18 |
4 | He built altars in the house of Yahweh, whereof Yahweh said, In Jerusalem shall my name be forever. | 2Ch 33:15 2Ch 34:3 2Ch 34:4 2Ki 21:4 2Ki 21:5 Jer 7:30 |
5 | He built altars for all the host of the sky in the two courts of the house of Yahweh. | 2Ch 4:9 Jer 32:34 Jer 32:35 Ezk 8:7-18 |
6 | He also made his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom; and he practiced sorcery, and used enchantments, and practiced sorcery, and dealt with those who had familiar spirits, and with wizards: he worked much evil in the sight of Yahweh, to provoke him to anger. | 2Ch 28:3 Lv 18:21 Lv 20:2 Dt 12:31 Dt 18:10 2Ki 21:6 2Ki 23:10 Jer 7:31 Jer 7:32 Ezk 23:37 Ezk 23:39 |
7 | He set the engraved image of the idol, which he had made, in the house of God, of which God said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name forever: | 2Ki 21:7 2Ki 21:8 2Ki 23:6 |
8 | neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers, if only they will observe to do all that I have commanded them, even all the law and the statutes and the ordinances [given] by Moses. | 2Sa 7:10 1Ch 17:9 |
9 | Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did evil more than did the nations whom Yahweh destroyed before the children of Israel. | 1Ki 14:16 1Ki 15:26 2Ki 21:16 2Ki 23:26 2Ki 24:3 2Ki 24:4 Pr 29:12 Mic 6:16 |
10 | Yahweh spoke to Manasseh, and to his people; but they gave no heed. | 2Ch 36:15 2Ch 36:16 Ne 9:29 Ne 9:30 Jer 25:4-7 Jer 44:4 Jer 44:5 Zc 1:4 Ac 7:51 Ac 7:52 |
11 | Therefore Yahweh brought on them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh in chains, and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon. | Dt 28:36 Jb 36:8 |
12 | When he was in distress, he begged Yahweh his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers. | 2Ch 28:22 Lv 26:39-42 Dt 4:30 Dt 4:31 Jer 31:18-20 Hos 5:15 Mic 6:9 Lk 15:16-18 |
13 | He prayed to him; and he was entreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that Yahweh he was God. | 1Ch 5:20 Ezr 8:23 Jb 22:23 Jb 22:27 Jb 33:16-30 Ps 32:3-5 Ps 86:5 Isa 55:6-9 Jer 29:12 Jer 29:13 Mt 7:7 Mt 7:8 Lk 23:42 Lk 23:43 Jn 4:10 |
14 | Now after this he built an outer wall to the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance at the fish gate; and he compassed Ophel about [with it], and raised it up to a very great height: and he put valiant captains in all the fortified cities of Judah. | 2Ch 32:5 |
15 | He took away the foreign gods, and the idol out of the house of Yahweh, and all the altars that he had built in the mountain of the house of Yahweh, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city. | 2Ch 33:3-7 2Ki 21:7 Isa 2:17-21 Ezk 18:20-22 Hos 14:1-3 Mt 3:8 |
16 | He built up the altar of Yahweh, and offered thereon sacrifices of peace-offerings and of thanksgiving, and commanded Judah to serve Yahweh, the God of Israel. | 2Ch 29:18 1Ki 18:30 |
17 | Nevertheless the people sacrificed still in the high places, but only to Yahweh their God. | 2Ch 15:17 2Ch 32:12 1Ki 22:43 2Ki 15:4 |
18 | Now 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 Yahweh, the God of Israel, behold, they are written among the acts of the kings of Israel. | 2Ch 20:34 2Ch 32:32 1Ki 11:41 |
19 | His prayer also, and how [God] was entreated of him, and all his sin and his trespass, and the places in which he built high places, and set up the Asherim and the engraved images, before he humbled himself: behold, they are written in the history of Hozai. | 2Ch 33:11 2Ch 33:12 2Ch 33:19 Pr 15:8 Ac 9:11 1Jn 1:9 |
20 | So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house: and Amon his son reigned in his place. | 2Ch 32:33 2Ki 21:18 |
21 | Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. | 2Ch 33:1 Lk 12:19 Lk 12:20 Jm 4:13-15 |
22 | He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as did Manasseh his father; and Amon sacrificed to all the engraved images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them. | 2Ch 33:1-10 2Ki 21:1-11 2Ki 21:20-11 Ezk 20:18 |
23 | He didn`t humble himself before Yahweh, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but this same Amon trespassed more and more. | 2Ch 33:1 2Ch 33:12 2Ch 33:19 Jer 8:12 |
24 | His servants conspired against him, and put him to death in his own house. | 2Ch 24:25 2Ch 24:26 2Ch 25:27 2Ch 25:28 2Sa 4:5-12 2Ki 21:23-26 Ps 55:23 Ro 11:22 |
25 | But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place. | Gn 9:5 Gn 9:6 Nm 35:31 Nm 35:33 |
