4 Kings 21:15-22 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

15. Because they have done evil before me, and have continued to provoke me, from the day that their fathers came out of Egypt, even unto this day.

16. Moreover Manasses shed also very much innocent blood, till he filled Jerusalem up to the mouth: besides his sins, wherewith he made Juda to sin, to do evil before the Lord.

17. Now the rest of the acts of Manasses, and all that he did, end his sin which he sinned, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?

18. And Manasses slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Oza: and Amen his son reigned in his stead.

19. Two and twenty years old was Amen when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Messalemeth the daughter of Harus of Jeteba.

20. And he did evil in the sight, of the Lord, as Manasses his father had done.

21. And he walked in all the way in which his father had walked: and he served the abominations which his father had served, and he adored them;

22. And forsook the Lord the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.
