King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. Manasseh[H4519] was twelve[H8147] [H6240] years[H8141] old[H1121] when he began to reign,[H4427] and he reigned[H4427] fifty[H2572] and five[H2568] years[H8141] in Jerusalem: [H3389]

2. But did[H6213] that which was evil[H7451] in the sight[H5869] of the LORD,[H3068] like unto the abominations[H8441] of the heathen,[H1471] whom[H834] the LORD[H3068] had cast out[H3423] before[H4480] [H6440] the children[H1121] of Israel.[H3478]

3. For he built[H1129] again[H7725] [H853] the high places[H1116] which[H834] Hezekiah[H3169] his father[H1] had broken down,[H5422] and he reared up[H6965] altars[H4196] for Baalim,[H1168] and made[H6213] groves,[H842] and worshiped[H7812] all[H3605] the host[H6635] of heaven,[H8064] and served[H5647] them.

4. Also he built[H1129] altars[H4196] in the house[H1004] of the LORD,[H3068] whereof[H834] the LORD[H3068] had said,[H559] In Jerusalem[H3389] shall my name[H8034] be[H1961] forever.[H5769]

5. And he built[H1129] altars[H4196] for all[H3605] the host[H6635] of heaven[H8064] in the two[H8147] courts[H2691] of the house[H1004] of the LORD.[H3068]

6. And he[H1931] caused[H853] his children[H1121] to pass[H5674] through the fire[H784] in the valley[H1516] of the son[H1121] of Hinnom:[H2011] also he observed times,[H6049] and used enchantments,[H5172] and used witchcraft,[H3784] and dealt with[H6213] a familiar spirit,[H178] and with wizards:[H3049] he wrought[H6213] much[H7235] evil[H7451] in the sight[H5869] of the LORD,[H3068] to provoke him to anger.[H3707]

7. And he set[H7760] [H853] a carved image,[H6459] the idol[H5566] which[H834] he had made,[H6213] in the house[H1004] of God,[H430] of which[H834] God[H430] had said[H559] to[H413] David[H1732] and to[H413] Solomon[H8010] his son,[H1121] In this[H2088] house,[H1004] and in Jerusalem,[H3389] which[H834] I have chosen[H977] before all[H4480] [H3605] the tribes[H7626] of Israel,[H3478] will I put[H7760] [H853] my name[H8034] forever: [H5865]

8. Neither[H3808] will I any more[H3254] remove[H5493] [H853] the foot[H7272] of Israel[H3478] from out of[H4480] [H5921] the land[H127] which[H834] I have appointed[H5975] for your fathers;[H1] so that[H7535] [H518] they will take heed[H8104] to do[H6213] [H853] all[H3605] that[H834] I have commanded[H6680] them, according to the whole[H3605] law[H8451] and the statutes[H2706] and the ordinances[H4941] by the hand[H3027] of Moses.[H4872]

9. So Manasseh[H4519] made[H853] Judah[H3063] and the inhabitants[H3427] of Jerusalem[H3389] to err,[H8582] and to do[H6213] worse[H7451] than[H4480] the heathen,[H1471] whom[H834] the LORD[H3068] had destroyed[H8045] before[H4480] [H6440] the children[H1121] of Israel.[H3478]

10. And the LORD[H3068] spoke[H1696] to[H413] Manasseh,[H4519] and to[H413] his people:[H5971] but they would not[H3808] hearken.[H7181]

11. Wherefore the LORD[H3068] brought[H935] upon[H5921] [H853] them the captains[H8269] of the host of[H6635] the king[H4428] of Assyria,[H804] which[H834] took[H3920] [H853] Manasseh[H4519] among the thorns,[H2336] and bound[H631] him with fetters,[H5178] and carried[H1980] him to Babylon.[H894]

12. And when he was in affliction,[H6887] he besought[H2470] [H853] the LORD[H6440] [H3068] his God,[H430] and humbled himself[H3665] greatly[H3966] before[H4480] [H6440] the God[H430] of his fathers,[H1]

13. And prayed[H6419] unto[H413] him: and he was entreated[H6279] of him, and heard[H8085] his supplication,[H8467] and brought him again[H7725] to Jerusalem[H3389] into his kingdom.[H4438] Then Manasseh[H4519] knew[H3045] that[H3588] the LORD[H3068] he[H1931] was God.[H430]

14. Now after[H310] this[H3651] he built[H1129] a wall[H2346] without[H2435] the city[H5892] of David,[H1732] on the west side[H4628] of Gihon,[H1521] in the valley,[H5158] even to the entering in[H935] at the fish[H1709] gate[H8179] and compassed about[H5437] Ophel,[H6077] and raised it up a very great height,[H1361] [H3966] and put[H7760] captains[H8269] of war[H2428] in all[H3605] the fenced[H1219] cities[H5892] of Judah.[H3063]

15. And he took away[H5493] [H853] the strange[H5236] gods,[H430] and the idol[H5566] out of the house[H4480] [H1004] of the LORD,[H3068] and all[H3605] the altars[H4196] that[H834] he had built[H1129] in the mount[H2022] of the house[H1004] of the LORD,[H3068] and in Jerusalem,[H3389] and cast[H7993] them out of[H2351] the city.[H5892]

16. And he repaired[H1129] [H853] the altar[H4196] of the LORD,[H3068] and sacrificed[H2076] thereon[H5921] peace[H8002] offerings[H2077] and thank offerings,[H8426] and commanded[H559] Judah[H3063] to serve[H5647] [H853] the LORD[H3068] God[H430] of Israel.[H3478]

17. Nevertheless[H61] the people[H5971] did sacrifice[H2076] still[H5750] in the high places,[H1116] yet unto the LORD[H3068] their God[H430] only.[H7535]

18. Now the rest[H3499] of the acts of[H1697] Manasseh,[H4519] and his prayer[H8605] unto[H413] his God,[H430] and the words[H1697] of the seers[H2374] that spoke[H1696] to[H413] him in the name[H8034] of the LORD[H3068] God[H430] of Israel,[H3478] behold,[H2009] they are written in[H5921] the book[H1697] of the kings[H4428] of Israel.[H3478]

19. His prayer[H8605] also, and how God was entreated[H6279] of him, and all[H3605] his sin,[H2403] and his trespass,[H4604] and the places[H4725] wherein[H834] he built[H1129] high places,[H1116] and set up[H5975] groves[H842] and graven images,[H6456] before[H6440] he was humbled:[H3665] behold,[H2009] they are written[H3789] among[H5921] the sayings[H1697] of the seers.[H2335]

20. So Manasseh[H4519] slept[H7901] with[H5973] his fathers,[H1] and they buried[H6912] him in his own house:[H1004] and Amon[H526] his son[H1121] reigned[H4427] in his stead.[H8478]

21. Amon[H526] was two[H8147] and twenty[H6242] years[H8141] old[H1121] when he began to reign,[H4427] and reigned[H4427] two[H8147] years[H8141] in Jerusalem.[H3389]

22. But he did[H6213] that which was evil[H7451] in the sight[H5869] of the LORD,[H3068] as[H834] did[H6213] Manasseh[H4519] his father:[H1] for Amon[H526] sacrificed[H2076] unto all[H3605] the carved images[H6456] which[H834] Manasseh[H4519] his father[H1] had made,[H6213] and served[H5647] them;

23. And humbled not himself[H3808] [H3665] before[H4480] [H6440] the LORD,[H3068] as Manasseh[H4519] his father[H1] had humbled himself;[H3665] but[H3588] Amon[H526] trespassed[H819] more and more.[H7235]

24. And his servants[H5650] conspired[H7194] against[H5921] him, and slew[H4191] him in his own house.[H1004]

25. But the people[H5971] of the land[H776] slew[H5221] [H853] all[H3605] them that had conspired[H7194] against[H5921] king[H4428] Amon;[H526] and the people[H5971] of the land[H776] made Josiah his son king[H4427] [H853] [H2977] [H1121] in his stead.[H8478]
