2 Kings 21
1 Manasseh was twelue yeere olde when he began to reigne, and reigned fiftie and fiue yeere in Ierusalem: his mothers name also was Hephzi-bah.
Bere a Manase dii hene no, na wadi mfe dumien, na odii hene wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia aduonum anum. Na ne na din de Hefsibah.
2 And he did euill in the sight of the Lord after the abomination of the heathen, whom the Lord had cast out 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 For he went backe and built the hie places, which Hezekiah his father had destroyed: and he erected vp altars for Baal, and made a groue, as did Ahab King of Israel, and worshipped all the hoste of heauen and serued them.
Ɔsan sisii abosonsomfo abosonnan a nʼagya Hesekia bubu gui no. Ɔyɛɛ afɔremuka pii maa Baal, na osii Asera dua, sɛnea Israelhene Ahab yɛe ara pɛ. Afei, ɔkotow sɔree wim atumfo.
4 Also he built altars in the house of the Lord, of the which the Lord saide, In Ierusalem will I put my Name.
Na mpo, osisii abosom afɔremuka pii wɔ Awurade asɔredan mu; baabi a Awurade aka sɛ wɔnhyɛ ne din anuonyam no.
5 And he built altars for al the hoste of ye heauen in the two courtes of the house of the Lord.
Osisii saa afɔremuka no wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no adiwo abien hɔ, de maa wim nsoromma no.
6 And he caused his sonnes to passe through the fire, and gaue him selfe to witchcraft and sorcerie, and he vsed them that had familiar spirits and were soothsayers, and did much euill in the sight of the Lord to anger him.
Na mpo, Manase de ɔno ankasa babarima bɔɔ afɔre wɔ ogya mu. Na ɔyɛ abayisɛm, kɔ abisa. Ɔkɔɔ samanfrɛfo hɔ ne asumanfo so. Ɔyɛɛ bɔne bebree Awurade ani so, ma ɛhyɛɛ no abufuw.
7 And he set the image of the groue, that he had made, in the house, whereof ye Lord had saide to Dauid and to Salomon his sonne, In this house and in Ierusalem, which I haue chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my Name for euer.
Manase faa Asera dua a wayɛ no de kosii asɔredan mu, beae koro no ara a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Dawid ne ne babarima Salomo se, “Wɔbɛhyɛ me din anuonyam wɔ ha daa nyinaa wɔ saa asɔredan yi mu wɔ Yerusalem. Yerusalem yɛ kurow a mayi afi Israel mmusuakuw a aka no nyinaa mu.
8 Neither will I make the feete of Israel, mooue any more out of the lande, which I gaue their fathers: so that they will obserue and doe all that I haue commanded them, and according to all the Lawe that my seruant Moses commanded them.
Na sɛ Israelfo betie mʼahyɛde a menam mʼakoa Mose so hyɛ maa wɔn no a, merentwa wɔn asu mfi asase yi a mede maa wɔn agyanom no so.”
9 Yet they obeyed not, but Manasseh ledde them out of the way, to doe more wickedly then did the heathen people, whom the Lord destroyed before the children of Israel.
Nanso nnipa no antie. Manase dii wɔn anim ma wɔyɛɛ bɔne bebree a ɛsen abosonsom aman a Awurade sɛee no bere a Israelfo kɔɔ saa asase no so no mpo.
10 Therefore the Lord spake by his seruants the Prophets, saying,
Awurade nam nʼasomfo a wɔyɛ nʼadiyifo so kae se,
11 Because that Manasseh King of Iudah hath done such abominations, and hath wrought more wickedly then al that the Amorites (which were before him) did, and hath made Iudah sinne also with his idoles,
“Yudahene Manase ayɛ akyiwade bebree. Na mpo, ɔyɛ omumɔyɛfo sen Amorifo a wɔbɛtenaa asase yi so ansa na Israel reba no. Wadi Yudafo anim de wɔn akɔ ahonisom mu.
12 Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Beholde, I will bring an euill vpon Ierusalem and Iudah, that who so heareth of it, both his eares shall tingle.
Enti sɛɛ na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn se: Mede ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ bɛto Yerusalem ne Yuda so ama aso a ɛbɛte saa nsɛm no mu ayɛ no yonn.
13 And I will stretch ouer Ierusalem the line of Samaria, and the plommet of the house of Ahab: and I will wipe Ierusalem, as a man wipeth a dish, which he wipeth, and turneth it vpside downe.
Mɛfa ɔkwan a menam so buu Samaria ne Ahab abusua atɛn no so abu Yerusalem atɛn. Mɛpepa nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem nyinaa, te sɛnea obi hohoro asanka mu, na ɔdan butuw no.
14 And I will forsake the remnant of mine inheritance, and deliuer them into the hande of their enemies, and they shalbe robbed and spoyled of all their aduersaries,
Na mpo, mɛpo me nkurɔfo kakra a wɔaka no, na mede wɔn bɛma wɔn atamfo sɛ asade.
15 Because they haue done euil in my sight, and haue prouoked mee to anger, since the time their fathers came out of Egypt vntill this day.
Efisɛ wɔayɛ bɔne kɛse wɔ mʼanim, nam so ahyɛ me abufuw, fi bere a wɔn agyanom fii Misraim no.”
16 Moreouer Manasseh shed innocent blood exceeding much, till hee replenished Ierusalem from corner to corner, beside his sinne wherwith he made Iudah to sinne, and to doe euill in the sight of the Lord.
Manase kunkum nnipa a wɔnyɛɛ bɔne nso bebree kosii sɛ, mogya a edi bem hyɛɛ Yerusalem ma, fi ti kosi ti. Eyi ka bɔne a ɔmaa Yudafo no yɛ de wɔn kɔɔ bɔne a wɔyɛɛ no Awurade ani so no ho.
17 Concerning the rest of the actes of Manasseh, and all that hee did, and his sinne that he sinned, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Iudah?
Manase ahenni ho nsɛm nkae ne dwuma a odii nyinaa ne bɔne a ɔyɛe no, wɔankyerɛw angu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?
18 And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, euen in the garden of Vzza: and Amon his sonne reigned in his steade.
Manase wui no, wosiee no wɔ ahemfi no turo a na ɛyɛ Usa dea no mu. Na ne babarima Amon na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
19 Amon was two and twentie yere olde, when he began to reigne, and hee reygned two yeere in Ierusalem: his mothers name also was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Iotbah.
Amon dii hene no, na wadi mfe aduonu abien. Odii hene wɔ Yerusalem mfe abien. Na wɔfrɛ ne na Mesulemet a na ɔyɛ Harus a ofi Yolba no babea.
20 And he did euill in the sight of the Lord, as his father Manasseh did.
Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛnea nʼagya Manase yɛe no ara pɛ.
21 For hee walked in all the way that his father walked in, and serued the idoles that his father serued, and worshipped them.
Ɔfaa nʼagya nhwɛso so, som ahoni koro no ara a na nʼagya som wɔn no.
22 And he forsooke the Lord God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.
Ogyaw Awurade, nʼagyanom Nyankopɔn no na wampɛ sɛ ɔbɛfa Awurade akwan so.
23 And the seruantes of Amon conspired against him, and slewe the King in his owne house.
Na Amon no ankasa asomfo bɔɔ ne ho pɔw, kum no wɔ nʼahemfi.
24 And the people of the land slewe all them that had conspired against King Amon, and the people made Iosiah his sonne King in his steade.
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.
25 Concerning the rest of the actes of Amon, which he did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Iudah?
Amon ahenni ho nsɛm nkae ne dwuma a odii no nyinaa, wɔankyerɛw angu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?
26 And they buried him in his sepulchre in the garden of Vzza: and Iosiah his sonne reigned in his steade.
Wosiee no wɔ ne boda a ɛwɔ Usa turo mu hɔ no mu. Na ne babarima Yosia dii ade sɛ ɔhene.
