2 Chronicles 33:1-6 ▼

1 Manasseh is a son of twelve years in his reigning, and he has reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem;

2 and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH, like the abominations of the nations that YHWH dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel,

3 and he turns and builds the high places that his father Hezekiah has broken down, and raises altars for Ba‘alim, and makes Asherim, and bows himself to all the host of the heavens, and serves them.

4 And he has built altars in the house of YHWH of which YHWH had said, “My Name is in Jerusalem for all time.”

5 And he builds altars for all the host of the heavens in the two courts of the house of YHWH.

6 And he has 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 has multiplied to do evil in the eyes of YHWH, to provoke him to anger.
