2 Chronicles 33
1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
Bere a Manase dii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia dumien. Odii hene wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia aduonum anum.
2 And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, like the abominations of the nations that Jehovah had dispossessed from before the children of Israel.
Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, suasuaa abosonsomfo aman nneyɛe a ɛyɛ akyiwade a Awurade apam afi asase a ɛda Israel anim no so no.
3 And he built again the high places that Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he reared up altars to the Baals, and made Asherahs, and worshipped all the host of heaven and served them.
Ɔsan sisii nsɔree a nʼagya Hesekia sɛee no no. Osii afɔremuka maa Baal ahoni, sisii Asera nnua. Ɔsan kotow nsoromma a ɛwɔ wim no nyinaa, som wɔn.
4 And he built altars in the house of Jehovah, of which Jehovah had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever.
Mpo, osisii abosonsom afɔremuka wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu, baabi a Awurade aka se, ɛhɔ na ɛsɛ sɛ wodi ne din ni afebɔɔ no.
5 And he built altars to all the host of heaven in both courts of the house of Jehovah.
Osisii saa afɔremuka no wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no adiwo abien hɔ, de maa wim nsoromma no.
6 He also caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom; and he used magic and divination and sorcery, and appointed necromancers and soothsayers: he wrought evil beyond measure in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger.
Manase de ɔno ankasa mmabarima bɔɔ afɔre wɔ ogya so wɔ Hinom Babarima Bon mu. Ɔde ne ho hyɛɛ asumansɛm mu, kɔɔ abisa, yɛɛ abayisɛm, kɔɔ samanfrɛfo ne adunsifo nkyɛn. Ɔyɛɛ nneɛma pii a ɛyɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, maa Awurade bo fuwii.
7 And he set the graven image of the idol that he had made, in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever;
Na Manase faa ohoni a wasen, de kosii Onyankopɔn Asɔredan mu. Ɔde kosii beae koro no ara a Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Dawid ne ne babarima Salomo se, “Wobedi me din ni wɔ ha afebɔɔ, asɔredan yi mu ne Yerusalem, kuropɔn a mayi afi mmusuakuw a ɛwɔ Israel no nyinaa mu no.
8 neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from out of the land that I have appointed to your fathers; if they will only take heed to do all that I commanded them through Moses, according to all the law and the statutes and the ordinances.
Sɛ Israelfo di mʼahyɛde nyinaa so, me mmara a wɔnam Mose so mae no nyinaa so a, merentwa wɔn asu mfi asase a mede maa wɔn agyanom no so.”
9 And Manasseh led Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem astray, to do more evil than the nations that Jehovah had destroyed from before the children of Israel.
Nanso Manase dii ɔmanfo a wɔwɔ Yuda ne Yerusalem anim maa wɔyɛɛ bɔnetraso sen abosonsom aman a Awurade sɛee wɔn, bere a Israelfo kɔɔ asase no so no.
10 And Jehovah spoke to Manasseh and to his people; but they did not hearken.
Awurade kasa kyerɛɛ Manase ne ne nkurɔfo no, nanso wɔantie ne kɔkɔbɔ no mu biara.
11 And Jehovah brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh with fetters, and bound him with chains of brass, and carried him to Babylon.
Enti Awurade maa Asiriafo asraafo bɛfaa Manase yɛɛ no odeduani. Wɔde darewa hyɛɛ ne hwene mu, de kɔbere mfrafrae nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn kyekyeree no, de no kɔɔ Babilonia.
12 And when he was in affliction, he besought Jehovah his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers,
Na bere a Manase wɔ ahokyere a emu yɛ den mu no, ɔpɛɛ Awurade, ne Nyankopɔn akyi kwan, na ɔde ahobrɛase su frɛɛ nʼagyanom Nyankopɔn.
13 and prayed to him. And he was intreated of him and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that Jehovah, he was God.
Na bere a ɔbɔɔ mpae no, Awurade tiee no, na ne sufrɛ no kaa ne koma. Enti Awurade maa Manase san kɔɔ Yerusalem wɔ nʼahenni mu. Afei, Manase tee ase sɛ Awurade nko ara ne Onyankopɔn.
14 And after this he built the outer wall of the city of David, on the west, toward Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance of the fish-gate, and carried it round Ophel, and raised it up a very great height; and he put captains of war in all the fortified cities of Judah.
Eyi akyi no, Manase san sisii Dawid kuropɔn abɔnten afasu; efi Gihon asuti atɔe fam a ɛwɔ Kidron bon mu, de kɔ Apataa Pon ano, kosi Ofel bepɔw so a wosi ma ɛkɔɔ soro yiye no. Na oduaa nʼasraafo mpanyimfo no wɔ Yuda nkuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban no nyinaa mu.
15 And he removed the strange gods, and the idol out of the house of Jehovah, and all the altars that he had built on the mount of the house of Jehovah and in Jerusalem, and cast [them] out of the city.
Manase san tutuu ananafo anyame fii mmepɔw no so. Ɔsan tutuu anyame ne ahoni no fii Awurade Asɔredan mu. Obubuu afɔremuka a wasisi wɔ bepɔw so, faako a Asɔredan no si, ne afɔremuka a ɛwɔ Yerusalem nyinaa, na ɔkɔtow guu kuropɔn no mfikyiri.
16 And he reinstated the altar of Jehovah, and sacrificed on it peace-offerings and thank-offerings, and commanded Judah to serve Jehovah the God of Israel.
Na ɔsan sii Awurade afɔremuka no, bɔɔ asomdwoe afɔre ne aseda afɔre wɔ so. Afei, ɔhyɛɛ Yuda manfo no nkuran sɛ, wɔnsom Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn no.
17 Nevertheless, the people sacrificed still on the high places, although to Jehovah their God only.
Nanso na ɔmanfo no da so bɔ afɔre wɔ abosonsom nsɔree so, a na wɔbɔ ma Awurade wɔn Nyankopɔn no ara.
18 And the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of Jehovah the God of Israel, behold, they [are written] in the acts of the kings of Israel.
Manase adedi ho nsɛm nkae, ne mpae a ɔbɔɔ srɛɛ Onyankopɔn ne nsɛm a adehufo ka kyerɛɛ no wɔ Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn din mu no, wɔakyerɛw agu Israel ahemfo nhoma mu.
19 And his prayer, and [how God] was intreated of him, and all his sin and his unfaithfulness, and the places in which he built high places, and set up Asherahs and graven images, before he was humbled, behold, they are written among the words of Hozai.
Manase mpae, ɔkwan a Onyankopɔn faa so buaa no, ne ne bɔne ne atoro a odii nyinaa ho nsɛm, wɔakyerɛw agu adehufo nhoma mu. Faako a osii abosonsom nsɔree so, sisii Asera nnua ne ahoni ansa na ɔrenu ne ho no nso ka ho.
20 And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house; and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
Bere a Manase wui no, wosiee no wɔ nʼahemfi. Na ne babarima Amon na ɔyɛɛ ɔhene a odi hɔ.
21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
Bere a Amon dii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia aduonu abien. Odii hene wɔ Yerusalem mfe abien.
22 And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, as Manasseh his father had done; and Amon sacrificed to all the graven images that Manasseh his father had made, and served them.
Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛnea nʼagya Manase yɛe no. Ɔsom ahoni a nʼagya yɛe no nyinaa, bɔɔ afɔre maa wɔn.
23 And he did not humble himself before Jehovah, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; for he, Amon, multiplied trespass.
Nanso wansɛ nʼagya Manase, efisɛ wammrɛ ne ho ase amma Awurade. Mmom, Amon yɛɛ bɔne maa ɛtraa so.
24 And his servants conspired against him, and slew him in his own house.
Akyiri no, Amon no ara mpanyimfo pam ne ti so, kum no wɔ nʼahemfi.
25 But the people of the land smote all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
Na nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so nyinaa kunkum nnipa a wɔbɔɔ ɔhene Amon ho pɔw no, na wɔde ne babarima Yosia dii ade sɛ ɔhene.
