2 Kings 21:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
21 3 King Manasseh restoreth idolatry, 16 And useth great cruelty. 18 He dieth and Amon his son succeedeth, 23 Who is killed of his own servants. 26 After him reigneth Josiah.
1 Manasseh (A)was twelve years old when he began to reign, and reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem: his mother’s name also was Hephzibah.
2 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord after the abomination of the heathen, whom the (B)Lord had cast out before the children of Israel.
3 For he went back and built the high places, (C)which Hezekiah his father had destroyed: and he erected up altars for Baal, and made a grove, as did Ahab king of Israel, and worshipped all the host of heaven and served them.
