New Testament

2 Chronicles 33:17-25 Modern English Version (MEV)

17. However, the people continued to sacrifice at the high places, but only to the Lord their God.

18. And the remainder of the acts of Manasseh and his prayer to God and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the Lord God of Israel are written in the annals of the kings of Israel.

19. And his prayer and how God received his entreaty, and all his sin and unfaithfulness, and the sites where he built high places and where he set up the Asherah poles and images before he humbled himself, indeed they are written in the sayings of Hozai.

20. So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his palace, and Amon his son reigned in his place.

21. And Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign, and he was king for two years in Jerusalem.

22. And he did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord as his father Manasseh had done. And Amon sacrificed to and served all the idols that Manasseh his father had made.

23. He did not humble himself before the Lord as his father humbled himself. But he increased his guilt all the more.

24. And his servants plotted against him, and they killed him in his palace.

25. Then the people of the land struck down all those who conspired against King Amon. The people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.
