Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

2 Chronicles 33
¹⁶ He set up the altar of the Lord and sacrificed peace offerings and thank offerings on it; and he ordered Judah to serve the Lord God of Israel.
¹⁷ Nevertheless the people still sacrificed in the high places, although only to the Lord their God.
¹⁸ Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh even his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the Lord God of Israel, behold, they are among the records of the kings of Israel.
¹⁹ His prayer also and how God was entreated by him, and all his sin, his unfaithfulness, and the sites on which he built high places and erected the Asherim and the carved images, before he humbled himself, behold, they are written in the records of the Hozai.
²⁰ So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. And Amon his son became king in his place.
²¹ Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
²² He did evil in the sight of the Lord as Manasseh his father had done, and Amon sacrificed to all the carved images which his father Manasseh had made, and he served them.
²³ Moreover, he did not humble himself before the Lord as his father Manasseh had done, but Amon multiplied guilt.
²⁴ Finally his servants conspired against him and put him to death in his own house.
²⁵ But the people of the land killed all the conspirators against King Amon, and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.
2 Chronicles 34
¹ Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem.
