2 Kings 21
1 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;
Duodecim annorum erat Manasses cum regnare coepisset, et quinquaginta quinque annis regnavit in Ierusalem: nomen matris eius Haphsiba.
2 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,
Fecitque malum in conspectu Domini, iuxta idola Gentium, quas delevit Dominus a facie filiorum Israel.
3 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.
Conversusque est, et aedificavit excelsa, quae dissipaverat Ezechias pater eius: et erexit aras Baal, et fecit lucos sicut fecerat Achab rex Israel, et adoravit omnem militiam caeli, et coluit eam.
4 And he has built altars in the house of YHWH, of which YHWH said, “In Jerusalem I put My Name.”
Extruxitque aras in domo Domini, de qua dixit Dominus: In Ierusalem ponam nomen meum.
5 And he builds altars to all the host of the heavens in the two courts of the house of YHWH;
Et extruxit altaria universae militiae caeli in duobus atriis templi Domini.
6 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.
Et traduxit filium suum per ignem: et ariolatus est, et observavit auguria, et fecit pythones, et aruspices multiplicavit, ut faceret malum coram Domino, et irritaret eum.
7 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;
Posuit quoque idolum luci, quem fecerat in templo Domini, super quod locutus est Dominus ad David, et ad Salomonem filium eius: In templo hoc, et in Ierusalem, quam elegi de cunctis tribubus Israel, ponam nomen meum in sempiternum.
8 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.”
Et ultra non faciam commoveri pedem Israel de terra, quam dedi patribus eorum: si tamen custodierint opere omnia quae praecepi eis, et universam legem, quam mandavit eis servus meus Moyses.
9 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.
Illi vero non audierunt: sed seducti sunt a Manasse, ut facerent malum super Gentes, quas contrivit Dominus a facie filiorum Israel.
10 And YHWH speaks by the hand of his servants the prophets, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus in manu servorum suorum Prophetarum, dicens:
11 “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—
Quia fecit Manasses rex Iuda abominationes istas pessimas, super omnia quae fecerunt Amorrhaei ante eum, et peccare fecit etiam Iudam in immunditiis suis:
12 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.
propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus Israel: Ecce ego inducam mala super Ierusalem et Iudam: ut quicumque audierit, tinniant ambae aures eius.
13 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.
Et extendam super Ierusalem funiculum Samariae, et pondus domus Achab: et delebo Ierusalem, sicut deleri solent tabulae: et delens vertam, et ducam crebrius stylum super faciem eius.
14 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,
Dimittam vero reliquias hereditatis meae, et tradam eas in manus inimicorum eius: eruntque in vastitatem, et in rapinam cunctis adversariis suis:
15 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.”
eo quod fecerint malum coram me, et perseveraverint irritantes me, ex die qua egressi sunt patres eorum ex Aegypto, usque ad hanc diem.
16 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.
Insuper et sanguinem innoxium fudit Manasses multum nimis, donec impleret Ierusalem usque ad os: absque peccatis suis, quibus peccare fecit Iudam, ut faceret malum coram Domino.
17 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?
Reliqua autem sermonum Manasse, ut universa quae fecit, et peccatum eius, quod peccavit, nonne haec scripta sunt in Libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda?
18 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.
Dormivitque Manasses cum patribus suis, et sepultus est in horto domus suae, in horto Oza: et regnavit Amon filius eius pro eo.
19 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,
Viginti duorum annorum erat Amon cum regnare coepisset: duobus quoque annis regnavit in Ierusalem. nomen matris eius Messalemeth filia Harus de Ieteba.
20 and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH, as his father Manasseh did,
Fecitque malum in conspectu Domini, sicut fecerat Manasses pater eius.
21 and walks in all the way that his father walked in, and serves the idols that his father served, and bows himself to them,
Et ambulavit in omni via, per quam ambulaverat pater eius: servivitque immunditiis, quibus servierat pater eius, et adoravit eas,
22 and forsakes YHWH, God of his fathers, and has not walked in the way of YHWH.
et dereliquit Dominum Deum patrum suorum, et non ambulavit in via Domini.
23 And the servants of Amon conspire against him, and put the king to death in his own house,
Tetenderuntque ei insidias servi sui, et interfecerunt regem in domo sua.
24 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.
Percussit autem populus terrae omnes, qui coniuraverant contra regem Amon: et constituerunt sibi regem Iosiam filium eius pro eo.
25 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?
Reliqua autem sermonum Amon quae fecit, nonne haec scripta sunt in Libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda?
26 And [one] buries him in his burying-place in the garden of Uzza, and his son Josiah reigns in his stead.
Sepelieruntque eum in sepulchro suo, in horto Oza: et regnavit Iosias filius eius pro eo.
