18. The rest of Manasseh’s deeds, including his prayer to God and what the seers told him in the name of the Lord, Israel’s God, are found in the records of Israel’s kings.
19. Manasseh’s prayer and its answer, all his sin and unfaithfulness, and the locations of the shrines, sacred poles, and idols he set up before he submitted are written in the records of Hozai.
20. Manasseh lay down with his ancestors and was buried in his palace. His son Amon succeeded him as king.
21. Amon was 22 years old when he became king, and he ruled for two years in Jerusalem.
22. He did what was evil in the Lord’s eyes, just as his father Manasseh had done. He sacrificed to all the idols his father had made and worshipped them.
23. But unlike his father Manasseh, Amon didn’t submit before the Lord; instead, Amon increased his guilt.
24. His own officials plotted against him and killed him in his palace.
25. The people of the land then executed all those who had plotted against King Amon and made his son Josiah the next king.
