 NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. | 1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem: | 1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem. | 1 Manasses was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. | 1 A son of twelve years is Manasseh in his reigning, and fifty and five years he hath reigned in Jerusalem; | 2 He did evil in the sight of the LORD according to the abominations of the nations whom the LORD dispossessed before the sons of Israel. | 2 But did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, like unto the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD had cast out before the children of Israel. | 2 And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, after the abominations of the nations whom Jehovah cast out before the children of Israel. | 2 And he did evil before the Lord, according to all the abominations of the nations, which the Lord cast out before the children of Israel: | 2 and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, like the abominations of the nations that Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel, | 3 For he rebuilt the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; he also erected altars for the Baals and made Asherim, and worshiped all the host of heaven and served them. | 3 For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down, and he reared up altars for Baalim, and made groves, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them. | 3 For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he reared up altars for the Baalim, and made Asheroth, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them. | 3 And he turned, and built again the high places which Ezechias his father had destroyed: and he built altars to Baalim, and made groves, and he adored all the host of heaven, and worshipped them. | 3 and he turneth and buildeth the high places that Hezekiah his father hath broken down, and raiseth altars for Baalim, and maketh shrines, and boweth himself to all the host of the heavens, and serveth them. | 4 He built altars in the house of the LORD of which the LORD had said, "My name shall be in Jerusalem forever." | 4 Also he built altars in the house of the LORD, whereof the LORD had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever. | 4 And he built altars in the house of Jehovah, whereof Jehovah said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever. | 4 He built also altars in the house of the Lord, whereof the Lord had said: In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever. | 4 And he hath built altars in the house of Jehovah of which Jehovah had said, 'In Jerusalem is My name to the age.' | 5 For he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD. | 5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD. | 5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of Jehovah. | 5 And he built them for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord. | 5 And he buildeth altars to all the host of the heavens in the two courts of the house of Jehovah. | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 6 He made his sons pass through the fire in the valley of Ben-hinnom; and he practiced witchcraft, used divination, practiced sorcery and dealt with mediums and spiritists. He did much evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger. | 6 And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger. | 6 He also made his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom; and he practised augury, and used enchantments, and practised sorcery, and dealt with them that had familiar spirits, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger. | 6 And he made his sons to pass through the fire in the valley of Benennom: he observed dreams, followed divinations, gave himself up to magic arts, had with him magicians, and enchanters: and he wrought many evils before the Lord, to provoke him to anger. | 6 And he hath caused his sons to pass over through fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and observed clouds and used enchantments and witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and a wizard; he hath multiplied to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger. | 7 Then he put the carved image of the idol which he had made in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, "In this house and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen from all the tribes of Israel, I will put My name forever; | 7 And he set a carved image, the idol which he had made, in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen before all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever: | 7 And he set the graven 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 for ever: | 7 He set also a graven, and a molten statue in the house of God, of which God had 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 for ever. | 7 And he placeth the graven image of the idol that he made in the house of God, of which God said unto David, and unto Solomon his son, 'In this house, and in Jerusalem that I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I put My name to the age, | 8 and I will not again remove the foot of Israel from the land which I have appointed for your fathers, if only they will observe to do all that I have commanded them according to all the law, the statutes and the ordinances given through Moses." | 8 Neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from out of the land which I have appointed for your fathers; so that they will take heed to do all that I have commanded them, according to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinances by the hand of Moses. | 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. | 8 And I will not make the foot of Israel to be removed out of the land which I have delivered to their fathers: yet so if they will take heed to do what I hare commanded them, and all the law, and the ceremonies, and judgments by the hand of Moses. | 8 and I add not to turn aside the foot of Israel from off the ground that I appointed to your fathers, only, if they watch to do all that I have commanded them -- to all the law, and the statutes, and the ordinances by the hand of Moses.' | 9 Thus Manasseh misled Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to do more evil than the nations whom the LORD destroyed before the sons of Israel. | 9 So Manasseh made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to err, and to do worse than the heathen, whom the LORD had destroyed before the children of Israel. | 9 And Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did evil more than did the nations whom Jehovah destroyed before the children of Israel. | 9 So Manasses seduced Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to do evil beyond all the nations, which the Lord had destroyed before the face of the children of Israel. | 9 And Manasseh maketh Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to err, to do evil above the nations that Jehovah destroyed from the presence of the sons of Israel. | Manasseh’s Idolatry Rebuked |
| 10 The LORD spoke to Manasseh and his people, but they paid no attention. | 10 And the LORD spake to Manasseh, and to his people: but they would not hearken. | 10 And Jehovah spake to Manasseh, and to his people; but they gave no heed. | 10 And the Lord spoke to him, and to his people, and they would not hearken. | 10 And Jehovah speaketh unto Manasseh and unto his people, and they have not attended, | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 11 Therefore the LORD brought the commanders of the army of the king of Assyria against them, and they captured Manasseh with hooks, bound him with bronze chains and took him to Babylon. | 11 Wherefore the LORD brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, which took Manasseh among the thorns, and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon. | 11 Wherefore Jehovah brought upon 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. | 11 Therefore he brought upon them the captains of the army of the king of the Assyrians: and they took Manasses, and carried him bound with chains and fetters to Babylon. | 11 and Jehovah bringeth in against them the heads of the host that the king of Asshur hath, and they capture Manasseh among the thickets, and bind him with brazen fetters, and cause him to go to Babylon. | 12 When he was in distress, he entreated the LORD his God and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers. | 12 And when he was in affliction, he besought the LORD his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers, | 12 And when he was in distress, he besought Jehovah his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers. | 12 And after that he was in distress he prayed to the Lord his God: and did penance exceedingly before the God of his fathers. | 12 And when he is in distress he hath appeased the face of Jehovah his God, and is humbled exceedingly before the God of his fathers, | 13 When he prayed to Him, He was moved by his entreaty and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem to his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD was God. | 13 And prayed unto him: and he was intreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD he was God. | 13 And he prayed unto him; and he was entreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that Jehovah he was God. | 13 And he entreated him, and besought him earnestly: and he heard his prayer, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom, and Manasses knew that the Lord was God. | 13 and prayeth unto Him, and He is entreated of him, and heareth his supplication, and bringeth him back to Jerusalem, to his kingdom, and Manasseh knoweth that Jehovah -- He is God. | 14 Now after this he built the outer wall of the city of David on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance of the Fish Gate; and he encircled the Ophel with it and made it very high. Then he put army commanders in all the fortified cities of Judah. | 14 Now after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah. | 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. | 14 After this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon in the valley, from the entering in of the fish gate round about to Ophel, and raised it up to a great height: and he appointed captains of the army in all the fenced cities of Juda: | 14 And after this he hath built an outer wall to the city of David, on the west of Gihon, in the valley, and at the entering in at the fish-gate, and it hath gone round to the tower, and he maketh it exceeding high, and he putteth heads of the force in all the cities of the bulwarks in Judah. | 15 He also removed the foreign gods and the idol from the house of the LORD, as well as all the altars which he had built on the mountain of the house of the LORD and in Jerusalem, and he threw them outside the city. | 15 And he took away the strange gods, and the idol out of the house of the LORD, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of the LORD, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city. | 15 And he took away the foreign gods, and the idol out of the house of Jehovah, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of Jehovah, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city. | 15 And he took away the strange gods, and the idol out of the house of the Lord: the altars also which he had made in the mount of the house of the Lord, and in Jerusalem, and he cast them all out of the city. | 15 And he turneth aside the gods of the stranger, and the idol, out of the house of Jehovah, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of Jehovah and in Jerusalem, and casteth them to the outside of the city. | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 16 He set up the altar of the LORD and sacrificed peace offerings and thank offerings on it; and he ordered Judah to serve the LORD God of Israel. | 16 And he repaired the altar of the LORD, and sacrificed thereon peace offerings and thank offerings, and commanded Judah to serve the LORD God of Israel. | 16 And he built up the altar of Jehovah, and offered thereon sacrifices of peace-offerings and of thanksgiving, and commanded Judah to serve Jehovah, the God of Israel. | 16 And he repaired the altar of the Lord, and sacrificed upon it victims, and peace offerings, and praise: and he commanded Juda to serve the Lord the God of Israel. | 16 And he buildeth the altar of Jehovah, and sacrificeth upon it sacrifices of peace-offerings and thank-offering, and saith to Judah to serve Jehovah, God of Israel; | 17 Nevertheless the people still sacrificed in the high places, although only to the LORD their God. | 17 Nevertheless the people did sacrifice still in the high places, yet unto the LORD their God only. | 17 Nevertheless the people sacrificed still in the high places, but only unto Jehovah their God. | 17 Nevertheless the people still sacrificed in the high places to the Lord their God. | 17 but still the people are sacrificing in high places, only -- to Jehovah their God. | 18 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh even his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the LORD God of Israel, behold, they are among the records of the kings of Israel. | 18 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer unto his God, and the words of the seers that spake to him in the name of the LORD God of Israel, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel. | 18 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer unto his God, and the words of the seers that spake to him in the name of Jehovah, the God of Israel, behold, they are written among the acts of the kings of Israel. | 18 But the rest of the acts of Manasses, and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of the Lord the God of Israel, are contained in the words of the kings of Israel. | 18 And the rest of the matters of Manasseh, and his prayer unto his God, and the matters of the seers, those speaking unto him in the name of Jehovah, God of Israel, lo, they are on the book of the matters of the kings of Israel; | 19 His prayer also and how God was entreated by him, and all his sin, his unfaithfulness, and the sites on which he built high places and erected the Asherim and the carved images, before he humbled himself, behold, they are written in the records of the Hozai. | 19 His prayer also, and how God was intreated of him, and all his sins, and his trespass, and the places wherein he built high places, and set up groves and graven images, before he was humbled: behold, they are written among the sayings of the seers. | 19 His prayer also, and how God was entreated of him, and all his sin and his trespass, and the places wherein he built high places, and set up the Asherim and the graven images, before he humbled himself: behold, they are written in the history of Hozai. | 19 His prayer also, and his being heard, and all his sins, and contempt, and places wherein he built high places, and set up groves, and statues before he did penance, are written in the words of Hozai. | 19 and his prayer, and his entreaty, and all his sin, and his trespass, and the places in which he had built high places, and established the shrines and the graven images before his being humbled, lo, they are written beside the matters of Hozai. | 20 So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. And Amon his son became king in his place. | 20 So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house: and Amon his son reigned in his stead. | 20 So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house: and Amon his son reigned in his stead. | 20 And Manasses slept with his fathers. and they buried him in his house: and his son Amen reigned in his stead. | 20 And Manasseh lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in his own house, and reign doth Amon his son in his stead. | Amon Becomes King in Judah |
| NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. | 21 Amon was two and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned two years in Jerusalem. | 21 Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. | 21 Amen was two and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. | 21 A son of twenty and two years is Amon in his reigning, and two years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, | 22 He did evil in the sight of the LORD as Manasseh his father had done, and Amon sacrificed to all the carved images which his father Manasseh had made, and he served them. | 22 But he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as did Manasseh his father: for Amon sacrificed unto all the carved images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them; | 22 And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, as did Manasseh his father; and Amon sacrificed unto all the graven images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them. | 22 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, as Manasses his father had done: and he sacrificed to all the idols which Manasses his father had made, and served them. | 22 and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, as did Manasseh his father, and to all the graven images that Manasseh his father had made hath Amon sacrificed, and serveth them, | 23 Moreover, he did not humble himself before the LORD as his father Manasseh had done, but Amon multiplied guilt. | 23 And humbled not himself before the LORD, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but Amon trespassed more and more. | 23 And he humbled not himself before Jehovah, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but this same Amon trespassed more and more. | 23 And he did not humble himself before the Lord, as Manasses his father had humbled himself, but committed far greater sins. | 23 and hath not been humbled before Jehovah, like the humbling of Manasseh his father, for Amon himself hath multiplied guilt. | 24 Finally his servants conspired against him and put him to death in his own house. | 24 And his servants conspired against him, and slew him in his own house. | 24 And his servants conspired against him, and put him to death in his own house. | 24 And his servants conspired against him, and slew him in his own house. | 24 And his servants conspire against him, and put him to death in his own house, | 25 But the people of the land killed all the conspirators against King Amon, and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place. | 25 But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead. | 25 But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead. | 25 But the rest of the multitude of the people slew them that had killed Amen, and made Josias his son king in his stead. | 25 and the people of the land smite all those conspiring against king Amon, and the people of the land cause Josiah his son to reign in his stead. |
