Manasseh's Repentance
10
The LORD spoke to Manasseh and to his people, but they paid no attention.
11
1Therefore the LORD brought upon them the commanders of the army of the king of Assyria, who captured Manasseh with hooks and 2bound him with chains of bronze and brought him to Babylon.
12
And when he was in distress, he entreated the favor of the LORD his God 3and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.
13
He prayed to him, and 4God was moved by his entreaty and heard his plea and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. 5Then Manasseh knew that the LORD was God.
14
Afterward he built an outer wall for the city of David west of 6Gihon, in the valley, and for the entrance into 7the Fish Gate, and carried it around 8Ophel, and raised it to a very great height. He also put commanders of the army in all the fortified cities in Judah.
15
And 9he took away the foreign gods and the idol from the house of the LORD, and all the altars that he had built on the mountain of the house of the LORD and in Jerusalem, and he threw them outside of the city.
16
He also restored the altar of the LORD and offered on it sacrifices of peace offerings and of thanksgiving, and he commanded Judah to serve the LORD, the God of Israel.
17
10Nevertheless, the people still sacrificed at the high places, but only to the LORD their God.
18
Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and 11his prayer to his God, and the words of 12the seers who spoke to him in the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, behold, they are in the 13Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
19
And his prayer, and how 14God was moved by his entreaty, and all his sin and his faithlessness, and the sites 15on which he built high places and set up the 16Asherim and the images, before 17he humbled himself, behold, they are written in the Chronicles of the Seers.a
20
So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his house, and Amon his son reigned in his place.
