2 Chronicles 33:1-5 ▼

1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned for fifty-five years 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.

3 For he rebuilt the high places which his father Hezekiah had torn down; he also set up altars for the Baals and made Asherim, and he worshiped all the heavenly lights and served them.

4 He built altars in the house of the LORD of which the LORD had said, “My name shall be in Jerusalem forever.”

5 He built altars for all the heavenly lights in the two courtyards of the house of the LORD.
