MANASSEH I was twelve years old when he began to reign: and he reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem: 2 But did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, like unto them abomi nations of the heathen, whom the LORD had cast out before the children of Israel. 3 For he 4 built again the high places which Hezekiah his father p had broken down, and he reared up altars for Baalim, and made groves, q and worshipped rall the host of heaven, and served them. 4 Also he built altars in the house of the LORD, whereof he LORD had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever. 5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house or the LORD. 6 And w he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also x 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. 7 And he set a carved enage, 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: 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. 9 So Manasseh made Judah & the inhabi tants of Jerusalem to err, and to do worse than the heathen, whom the LORD had destroyed before the children of Israel. 10 And the LORD spake to Manasseh, and to his people: but they would not hearken. 11 Wherefore the LORD brought upon them the captains of the host 9 of the king of Assyria, which took Manasseh among the thorns, h and bound i him with 2 iet ters, and carried him to Babylon. 12 And when he was in affliction, he be sought the LORD his God, and humbled of Manassch, and of Amon. 2 CHRONICLES, XXXIV. himself greatly before the God of his B.

And Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan. 16 And Shaphan carried u the book to the king, and brought the king word back again, saying, All that was committed to 9 thy servants, they do it. 17 And they have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the LORD, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers, and to the haud of the workmen. 18 Then Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest hath given me a book. And Shaphan read 2 it before the king: 19 And it came to pass, when the king had heard a the words of the law, that he rent his clothes. 20 And the king commanded Hilkiah. and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Abdon 3 the son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the jking's, saying, 21 Go, inquire c of the LORD for me, and for them that are left d in Israel and 312 Huldah's Prophecy.
