12 But, in his distress, he appeased the face of the LORD his God,—and humbled himself greatly, before the God of his fathers;
13 And prayed unto him: and he received his entreaty, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD was God.
14 Then afterward he built an outer wall for the city of David west of the Gihon in the valley, and for the entrance into the Gate of the Fishes. And it encircled the Ophel and raised it very high. Then he placed strong commanders in all the fortified cities of Judah.
15 And he removed the foreign gods and the carved image from the house of the LORD and all the altars which he built on the mountain of the house of the LORD and in Jerusalem, and he threw them outside the city.
16 And he reinstated the altar of the LORD, and sacrificed on it peace-offerings and thank-offerings, and commanded Judah to serve the LORD the God of Israel.
17 Even so, the people continued to sacrifice in the high places, but only to the LORD their God.
18 Everything else about Manasseh, including his prayer to his God and the words that the seers spoke to him in the name of the LORD the God of Israel are in the records of the kings of Israel.
19 And his prayer, and how he responded to him, all his sin and his unfaithful acts, and the places where he built the high places and set up Asherahs and idols before he humbled himself, behold, they are written in the words of the seers.
20 So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. And Amon his son reigned in his stead.
21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
22 And he did evil in the eyes of the LORD, as his father Manasseh did; and Amon sacrificed to all the graven images that his father Manasseh had made, and served them.
23 But he never humbled himself before the LORD as Manasseh, his father, humbled himself; to the contrary Amon multiplied the guilt.
24 His officials conspired against him and killed him in his palace.
