Bishops(i) 12 And when he was in tribulation, he besought the Lord his God, and humbled him selfe exceedingly before the God of his fathers 13 And made intercession to him: and God was intreated of him, and hearde his prayer, and brought him againe to Hierusalem into his kingdome: and then Manasse knewe that the Lorde was God 14 After this he buylt a wall without the citie of Dauid on the west side of Gion, in the valley, as they came to the fishe gate, and round about Ophel, & brought it vp of a very great heyght, and put captaynes of warre in all the strong cities of Iuda 15 And he toke away straunge gods and images out of the house of God, and all the aulters that he had buylt in the mount of the house of God and Hierusalem, and cast them out of the citie 16 And he prepared the aulter of the Lord, and sacrifised thereon peace offeringes and thanke offeringes, and charged Iuda to serue the Lorde God of Israel 17 Neuerthelesse, the people dyd offer stil in the high places, howbeit vnto the Lorde their God only 18 The rest of the actes of Manasse, and his prayer vnto his God, & the wordes of the sears that spake to him in the name of the Lorde God of Israel, behold they are [written] in the sayinges of the kinges of Israel 19 And his prayer, and howe that he was hearde, and all his sinnes, and his trespasse, and the places where he made high places and set vp groues and images before he was meekened, beholde they are written among the sayinges of the sears 20 And Manasse slept with his fathers, & they buried him in his owne house, and Amon his sonne raigned in his roome 21 Amon was two and twentie yeres old when he began to raigne, and raigned two yeres in Hierusalem 22 But he did euill in the sight of the Lord, like as dyd Manasse his father: for Amon sacrifised to all the carued images whiche Manasse his father had made, and serued them 23 And submitted not him selfe before the Lorde, as Manasse his father had meekened him selfe: but Amon trespassed greatly 24 And his owne seruauntes conspired against him, and slue him in his owne house
