2 Chronicles 33
1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-five years.
玛拿西登基的时候年十二岁，在耶路撒冷作王五十五年。
2 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD by following the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
他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那可憎的事，
3 For he rebuilt the high places that his father Hezekiah had torn down, and he raised up altars for the Baals and made Asherah poles. And he worshiped and served all the host of heaven.
重新建筑他父希西家所拆毁的邱坛，又为巴力筑坛，做木偶，且敬拜事奉天上的万象，
4 Manasseh also built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, “My Name will remain in Jerusalem forever.”
在耶和华的殿宇中筑坛—耶和华曾指着这殿说：“我的名必永远在耶路撒冷。”
5 In both courtyards of the house of the LORD, he built altars to all the host of heaven.
他在耶和华殿的两院中为天上的万象筑坛，
6 He sacrificed his sons in the fire in the Valley of Hinnom. He practiced sorcery, divination, and witchcraft, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did great evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger.
并在欣嫩子谷使他的儿女经火，又观兆，用法术，行邪术，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，
7 Manasseh even took the carved image he had made and set it up in the house of God, of which God had said to David and his son Solomon, “In this temple and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will establish My Name forever.
又在 神殿内立雕刻的偶像。 神曾对大卫和他儿子所罗门说：“我在以色列各支派中所选择的耶路撒冷和这殿，必立我的名直到永远。
8 I will never again cause the feet of the Israelites to leave the land that I assigned to your fathers, if only they are careful to do all that I have commanded them through Moses—all the laws, statutes, and judgments.”
以色列人若谨守遵行我借摩西所吩咐他们的一切法度、律例、典章，我就不再使他们挪移离开我所赐给他们列祖之地。”
9 So Manasseh led the people of Judah and Jerusalem astray, so that they did greater evil than the nations that the LORD had destroyed before the Israelites.
玛拿西引诱犹大和耶路撒冷的居民，以致他们行恶比耶和华在以色列人面前所灭的列国更甚。
10 And the LORD spoke to Manasseh and his people, but they did not listen.
耶和华警戒玛拿西和他的百姓，他们却是不听。
11 So the LORD brought against them the military commanders of the king of Assyria, who captured Manasseh, put a hook in his nose, bound him with bronze shackles, and took him to Babylon.
所以耶和华使亚述王的将帅来攻击他们，用铙钩钩住玛拿西，用铜链锁住他，带到巴比伦去。
12 And in his distress, Manasseh sought the favor of the LORD his God and earnestly humbled himself before the God of his fathers.
他在急难的时候，就恳求耶和华—他的 神，且在他列祖的 神面前极其自卑。
13 And when he prayed to Him, the LORD received his plea and heard his petition; so He brought him back to Jerusalem and to his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD is God.
他祈祷耶和华，耶和华就允准他的祈求，垂听他的祷告，使他归回耶路撒冷，仍坐国位。玛拿西这才知道惟独耶和华是 神。
14 After this, Manasseh rebuilt the outer wall of the City of David from west of Gihon in the valley to the entrance of the Fish Gate, and he brought it around the hill of Ophel and heightened it considerably. He also stationed military commanders in all the fortified cities of Judah.
此后，玛拿西在大卫城外，从谷内基训西边直到鱼门口，建筑城墙，环绕俄斐勒，这墙筑得甚高；又在犹大各坚固城内设立勇敢的军长；
15 He removed the foreign gods and the idol from the house of the LORD, along with all the altars he had built on the temple mount and in Jerusalem, and he dumped them outside the city.
并除掉外邦人的神像与耶和华殿中的偶像，又将他在耶和华殿的山上和耶路撒冷所筑的各坛都拆毁抛在城外；
16 Then he restored the altar of the LORD and sacrificed peace offerings and thank offerings on it, and he told Judah to serve the LORD, the God of Israel.
重修耶和华的祭坛，在坛上献平安祭、感谢祭，吩咐犹大人事奉耶和华—以色列的 神。
17 Nevertheless, the people still sacrificed at the high places, but only to the LORD their God.
百姓却仍在邱坛上献祭，只献给耶和华—他们的 神。
18 As for the rest of the acts of Manasseh, along with his prayer to his God and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, they are indeed written in the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
玛拿西其余的事和祷告他 神的话，并先见奉耶和华—以色列 神的名警戒他的言语，都写在以色列诸王记上。
19 His prayer and how God received his plea, as well as all his sin and unfaithfulness, and the sites where he built high places and set up Asherah poles and idols before he humbled himself, they are indeed written in the Records of the Seers.
他的祷告，与 神怎样应允他，他未自卑以前的罪愆过犯，并在何处建筑邱坛，设立亚舍拉和雕刻的偶像，都写在何赛的书上。
20 And Manasseh rested with his fathers and was buried at his palace. And his son Amon reigned in his place.
玛拿西与他列祖同睡，葬在自己的宫院里。他儿子亚们接续他作王。
21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years.
亚们登基的时候年二十二岁，在耶路撒冷作王二年。
22 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done. Amon served and sacrificed to all the idols that his father Manasseh had made,
他行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，效法他父玛拿西所行的，祭祀事奉他父玛拿西所雕刻的偶像，
23 but he did not humble himself before the LORD as his father Manasseh had done; instead, Amon increased his guilt.
不在耶和华面前像他父玛拿西自卑。这亚们所犯的罪越犯越大。
24 Then the servants of Amon conspired against him and killed him in his palace.
他的臣仆背叛，在宫里杀了他。
25 But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they made his son Josiah king in his place.
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。
