18. The other events of Manasseh’s reign, including his prayer to his God and the words the seers spoke to him in the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, are written in the annals of the kings of Israel.
19. His prayer and how God was moved by his entreaty, as well as all his sins and unfaithfulness, and the sites where he built high places and set up Asherah poles and idols before he humbled himself – all these are written in the records of the seers.
20. Manasseh rested with his ancestors and was buried in his palace. And Amon his son succeeded him as king.
21. Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for two years.
22. He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Manasseh had done. Amon worshipped and offered sacrifices to all the idols Manasseh had made.
23. But unlike his father Manasseh, he did not humble himself before the Lord; Amon increased his guilt.
24. Amon’s officials conspired against him and assassinated him in his palace.
25. Then the people of the land killed all who had plotted against King Amon, and they made Josiah his son king in his place.
