6 He made his son to pass through the fire, and practiced sorcery, and practiced divination, and consulted mediums, and spiritists: he worked much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger. 7 He set the engraved image of Asherah, that he had made, in the house of which the LORD 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; 8 neither will I cause the feet of Israel to wander any more out of the land which I gave their fathers, if only they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.| 9 But they did not listen: and Manasseh seduced them to do that which is evil more than the nations did whom the LORD destroyed before the children of Israel. 2 Kings 21:6-9, New Heart English Bible.
