Manasseh H4519 was twelve H8147 H6240 years H8141 old H1121 when he began to reign, H4427 and he reigned H4427 fifty H2572 and five H2568 years H8141 in Jerusalem: H3389

For he built H1129 again H7725 the high H1116 places which H834 Hezekiah H2396 his father had broken H5422 down, H5422 and he reared H6965 up altars H4196 for Baalim, H1168 and made H6213 groves, H842 and worshipped H7812 all H3605 the host H6635 of heaven, H8064 and served H5647 them.

And he built H1129 altars H4196 for all H3605 the host H6635 of heaven H8064 in the two H8147 courts H2691 of the house H1004 of the LORD. H3068

And he set H7760 a carved H6459 image, the idol H5566 which H834 he had made, H6213 in the house H1004 of God, H430 of which H834 God H430 had said H559 to David H1732 and to Solomon H8010 his son, H1121 In this H2088 house, H1004 and in Jerusalem, H3389 which H834 I have chosen H970 before all H3605 the tribes H7626 of Israel, H3478 will I put H7760 my name H8034 for ever: H5865

So Manasseh H4519 made Judah H3063 and the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 to err, H8582 and to do H6213 worse H7451 than H4480 the heathen, H1471 whom H834 the LORD H3068 had destroyed H8045 before H6440 the children H1121 of Israel. H3478

Manasseh H4519 was twelve H8147 H6240 years H8141 old H1121 when he began to reign, H4427 and reigned H4427 fifty H2572 and five H2568 years H8141 in Jerusalem. H3389 And his mother's H517 name H8034 was Hephzibah. H2657

For he built H1129 up again H7725 the high H1116 places which H834 Hezekiah H2396 his father H1 had destroyed; H6 and he reared H6965 up altars H4196 for Baal, H1168 and made H6213 a grove, H842 as did H6213 Ahab H256 king H4428 of Israel; H3478 and worshipped H7812 all H3605 the host H6635 of heaven, H8064 and served H5647 them.

And he built H1129 altars H4196 for all H3605 the host H6635 of heaven H8064 in the two H8147 courts H2691 of the house H1004 of the LORD. H3068

And he set H7760 a graven H6459 image of the grove H842 that he had made H6213 in the house, H1004 of which H834 the LORD H3068 said H559 to David, H1732 and to Solomon H8010 his son, H1121 In this H2088 house, H1004 and in Jerusalem, H3389 which H834 I have chosen H977 out of all H3605 tribes H7626 of Israel, H3478 will I put H7760 my name H8034 for ever: H5769

But they listened H8085 not: and Manasseh H4519 seduced H8582 them to do H6213 more evil H7451 than H4480 did the nations H1471 whom H834 the LORD H3068 destroyed H8045 before H6440 the children H1121 of Israel. H3478

Because H3282 H834 Manasseh H4519 king H4428 of Judah H3063 has done H6213 these H428 abominations, H8441 and has done H6213 wickedly H7489 above all H3605 that the Amorites H567 did, H6213 which H834 were before H6440 him, and has made Judah H3063 also H1571 to sin H2398 with his idols: H1544

But I said H559 to their children H1121 in the wilderness, H4057 Walk H3212 you not in the statutes H2706 of your fathers, H1 neither H408 observe H8104 their judgments, H4941 nor H408 defile H2930 yourselves with their idols: H1544

The carpenter H2796 H6086 stretches H5186 out his rule; H6957 he marks H8388 it out with a line; H8279 he fits H6213 it with planes, H4741 and he marks H8388 it out with the compass, H4230 and makes H6213 it after the figure H8403 of a man, H376 according to the beauty H8597 of a man; H120 that it may remain H3427 in the house. H1004

Then shall it be for a man H120 to burn: H1197 for he will take H3947 thereof, and warm H2552 himself; yes, H637 he kindles H5400 it, and bakes H644 bread; H3899 yes, H637 he makes H6466 a god, H410 and worships H7812 it; he makes H6213 it a graven H6459 image, and falls H5456 down H5456 thereto.

And the residue H7611 thereof he makes H6213 a god, H410 even his graven H6459 image: he falls H5456 down H5456 to it, and worships H7812 it, and prays H6419 to it, and said, H559 Deliver H5337 me; for you are my god. H410

And none H3808 considers H7725 in his heart, H3820 neither H3808 is there knowledge H1847 nor H3808 understanding H8394 to say, H559 I have burned H8314 part H2677 of it in the fire; H784 yes, H637 also H637 I have baked H644 bread H3899 on the coals H1513 thereof; I have roasted H6740 flesh, H1320 and eaten H398 it: and shall I make H6213 the residue H3499 thereof an abomination? H8441 shall I fall H5456 down H5456 to the stock H944 of a tree? H6086
