2 Chronicles 33
1 Twelve years old was Manasseh when he became king, and fifty and five years did he reign in Jerusalem.
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 what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, after the abominable acts of the nations whom the Lord had driven out from before the children of Israel.
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 And he built again the high-places which Hezekiah his father had broken down, and he erected altars for the Be'alim, and made Asheroth, and bowed himself down to all the host of heaven, and served them.
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 And he built altars in the house of the Lord, whereof the Lord had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever.
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 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
他在耶和华殿的两院中为天上的万象筑坛，
6 And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of Ben-hinnom: he also observed times, and employed enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with [those of] a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he did much that is evil in the eyes of the Lord, to provoke 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 And he placed a carved image of the idol which 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 made choice of out of all the tribes of Israel, will I place my name for ever.
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 Nor will I any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers; but only if they will take heed to do all that I have commanded them, according to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinances by the hand of Moses.
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 But Menasseh led Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem astray, to do worse than the nations whom the Lord had destroyed from before the children of Israel.
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 Menasseh, and to his people; but they listened not.
耶和华警戒玛拿西和他的百姓，他们却是不听。
11 Wherefore the Lord brought over them the captains of the army belonging to the king of Assyria: and they took Menasseh prisoner with chains, and bound him with fetters, and led him off 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 when he was in distress, he besought the Lord his God, and humbled himself greatly 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 he prayed unto him, and he permitted himself to be entreated by him, and heard his supplication, and brought him back to Jerusalem, unto his kingdom. Then did Menasseh feel conscious that the Lord is indeed the [true] 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 And after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gichon, in the valley, even to the entrance of the fish-gate, and about the hill-fort, and raised it up to a very great height; and he placed captains of the army 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 And he removed the strange gods and the idol out of the house of the Lord, and all the altars that he had built on the mount of the house of the Lord, and in Jerusalem, and he cast them forth to without 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 And he rebuilt the altar of the Lord, and sacrificed thereupon peace-offerings and thanksgiving-offerings, and he ordered 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 sacrificed on the high-places, but only unto 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 And the rest of the acts of Menasseh, and his prayer unto his God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of the Lord the God of Israel, behold, they are in the history 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 also, and [how God] was entreated of him, and all his sins and his faithlessness, and the places whereon he built high-places, and set up the Asherim and the graven images, before he was humbled: behold, they are written in the history of Chozai.
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 Menasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. And Amon his son became king in his stead.
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 Two and twenty years old was Amon when he became king, and two years did he reign in Jerusalem.
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 what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Menasseh his father had done; and unto all the carved images which Menasseh his father had made did Amon sacrifice, and them he served;
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 Menasseh his father had humbled himself; for he, Amon, made his guiltiness great.
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 And his servants conspired against him, and put him to death in his own house.
他的臣仆背叛，在宫里杀了他。
25 But the people of the land slew all those that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
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。
