列王纪下 21

1 玛拿西登基的时候年十二岁，在耶路撒冷作王五十五年。他母亲名叫协西巴。

Manasseh [is] a son of twelve years in his reigning, and he has reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Hephzi-Bah;

2 玛拿西行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，效法耶和华在以色列人面前赶出的外邦人所行可憎的事。

and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH, according to the abominations of the nations that YHWH dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel,

3 重新建筑他父希西家所毁坏的邱坛，又为巴力筑坛，做亚舍拉像，效法以色列王亚哈所行的，且敬拜事奉天上的万象；

and he turns and builds the high places that his father Hezekiah destroyed, and raises altars for Ba‘al, and makes an Asherah, as Ahab king of Israel did, and bows himself to all the host of the heavens, and serves them.

4 在耶和华殿宇中筑坛。耶和华曾指着这殿说：“我必立我的名在耶路撒冷。”

And he has built altars in the house of YHWH, of which YHWH said, “In Jerusalem I put My Name.”

5 他在耶和华殿的两院中为天上的万象筑坛，

And he builds altars to all the host of the heavens in the two courts of the house of YHWH;

6 并使他的儿子经火，又观兆，用法术，立交鬼的和行巫术的，多行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，惹动他的怒气；

and he has caused his son to pass through fire, and observed clouds, and used enchantment, and dealt with a familiar spirit and wizards; he has multiplied to do evil in the eyes of YHWH—to provoke to anger.

7 又在殿内立雕刻的亚舍拉像。耶和华曾对大卫和他儿子所罗门说：“我在以色列众支派中所选择的耶路撒冷和这殿，必立我的名，直到永远。

And he sets the carved image of the Asherah that he made in the house of which YHWH said to David and to his son Solomon, “In this house, and in Jerusalem, that I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I put My Name for all time;

8 以色列人若谨守遵行我一切所吩咐他们的和我仆人摩西所吩咐他们的一切律法，我就不再使他们挪移离开我所赐给他们列祖之地。”

and I do not add to cause the foot of Israel to move from the ground that I gave to their fathers, only, if they observe to do according to all that I commanded them, and to all the Law that My servant Moses commanded them.”

9 他们却不听从。玛拿西引诱他们行恶，比耶和华在以色列人面前所灭的列国更甚。

And they have not listened, and Manasseh causes them to err, to do evil above the nations that YHWH destroyed from the presence of the sons of Israel.

10 耶和华借他仆人众先知说：

And YHWH speaks by the hand of his servants the prophets, saying,

11 “因犹大王玛拿西行这些可憎的恶事比先前亚摩利人所行的更甚，使犹大人拜他的偶像，陷在罪里；

“Because that Manasseh king of Judah has done these abominations—he has done evil above all that the Amorites have done who [are] before him, and also causes Judah to sin by his idols—

12 所以耶和华—以色列的 神如此说：我必降祸与耶路撒冷和犹大，叫一切听见的人无不耳鸣。

therefore, thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Behold, I am bringing in calamity on Jerusalem and Judah, that whoever hears of it, his two ears tingle.

13 我必用量撒马利亚的准绳和亚哈家的线铊拉在耶路撒冷上，必擦净耶路撒冷，如人擦盘，将盘倒扣。

And I have stretched out the line of Samaria over Jerusalem, and the plummet of the house of Ahab, and wiped Jerusalem as one wipes the dish—he has wiped, and has turned [it] on its face.

14 我必弃掉所余剩的子民，把他们交在仇敌手中，使他们成为一切仇敌掳掠之物；

And I have left the remnant of My inheritance, and given them into the hand of their enemies, and they have been for a prey and for a spoil to all their enemies,

15 是因他们自从列祖出埃及直到如今，常行我眼中看为恶的事，惹动我的怒气。”

because that they have done evil in My eyes, and are provoking Me to anger from the day that their fathers came out of Egypt, even to this day.”

16 玛拿西行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，使犹大人陷在罪里，又流许多无辜人的血，充满了耶路撒冷，从这边直到那边。

And also, Manasseh has shed very much innocent blood, until he has filled Jerusalem mouth to mouth, apart from his sin that he has caused Judah to sin, to do evil in the eyes of YHWH.

17 玛拿西其余的事，凡他所行的和他所犯的罪都写在犹大列王记上。

And the rest of the matters of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

18 玛拿西与他列祖同睡，葬在自己宫院乌撒的园内；他儿子亚们接续他作王。

And Manasseh lies with his fathers, and is buried in the garden of his house, in the garden of Uzza, and his son Amon reigns in his stead.

19 亚们登基的时候年二十二岁，在耶路撒冷作王二年。他母亲名叫米舒利密，是约提巴人哈鲁斯的女儿。

Amon [is] a son of twenty-two years in his reigning, and he has reigned two years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Meshullemeth daughter of Haruz of Jotbah,

20 亚们行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，与他父亲玛拿西所行的一样；

and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH, as his father Manasseh did,

21 行他父亲一切所行的，敬奉他父亲所敬奉的偶像，

and walks in all the way that his father walked in, and serves the idols that his father served, and bows himself to them,

22 离弃耶和华—他列祖的 神，不遵行耶和华的道。

and forsakes YHWH, God of his fathers, and has not walked in the way of YHWH.

23 亚们王的臣仆背叛他，在宫里杀了他。

And the servants of Amon conspire against him, and put the king to death in his own house,

24 但国民杀了那些背叛亚们王的人，立他儿子约西亚接续他作王。

and the people of the land strike all those conspiring against King Amon, and the people of the land cause his son Josiah to reign in his stead.

25 亚们其余所行的事都写在犹大列王记上。

And the rest of the matters of Amon that he did, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

26 亚们葬在乌撒的园内自己的坟墓里。他儿子约西亚接续他作王。

And [one] buries him in his burying-place in the garden of Uzza, and his son Josiah reigns in his stead.
