2 Kings 21
1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Hephzibah.
Duodecim annorum erat Manasses cum regnare cœpisset, et quinquaginta quinque annis regnavit in Ierusalem: nomen matris eius Haphsiba.
2 He did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, after the abominations of the nations whom YHWH cast out before the children of Israel.
Fecitque malum in conspectu Domini, iuxta idola gentium, quas delevit Dominus a facie filiorum Israel.
3 For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal, and made an Asherah, as did Ahab king of Israel, and worshiped all the host of heaven, and served them.
Conversusque est, et ædificavit excelsa, quæ dissipaverat Ezechias pater eius: et erexit aras Baal, et fecit lucos sicut fecerat Achab rex Israel, et adoravit omnem militiam cæli, et coluit eam.
4 He built altars in the house of YHWH, of which YHWH said, "I will put my name in Jerusalem."
Extruxitque aras in domo Domini, de qua dixit Dominus: In Ierusalem ponam nomen meum.
5 He built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of YHWH.
Et extruxit altaria universæ militiæ cæli in duobus atriis templi Domini.
6 He made his son to pass through the fire, and practiced sorcery, and practiced divination, and consulted mediums, and spiritists: he worked much evil in the sight of YHWH, to provoke him 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 He set the engraved image of Asherah, that he had made, in the house of which YHWH 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 forever;
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 neither will I cause the feet of Israel to wander any more out of the land which I gave their fathers, if only they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according 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 quæ præcepi eis, et universam legem, quam mandavit eis servus meus Moyses.
9 But they did not listen: and Manasseh seduced them to do that which is evil more than the nations did whom YHWH destroyed before the children of Israel.
Illi vero non audierunt: sed seducti sunt a Manasse, ut facerent malum super gentes, quas contrivit Dominus a facie filiorum Israel.
10 YHWH spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus in manu servorum suorum Prophetarum, dicens:
11 "Because Manasseh king of Judah has done these abominations, and has done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, who were before him, and has made Judah also to sin with his idols;
Quia fecit Manasses rex Iuda abominationes istas pessimas, super omnia quæ fecerunt Amorrhæi ante eum, et peccare fecit etiam Iudam in immunditiis suis:
12 therefore thus says YHWH, the God of Israel, 'Look, I bring such disaster on Jerusalem and Judah, that whoever hears of it, both his ears shall tingle.
propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israel: Ecce ego inducam mala super Ierusalem et Iudam: ut quicumque audierit, tinniant ambæ aures eius.
13 I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.
Et extendam super Ierusalem funiculum Samariæ, et pondus domus Achab: et delebo Ierusalem, sicut deleri solent tabulæ: et delens vertam, et ducam crebrius stylum super faciem eius.
14 I will cast off the remnant of my inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies. They will become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies;
Dimittam vero reliquias hereditatis meæ, et tradam eas in manus inimicorum eius: eruntque in vastitatem, et in rapinam cunctis adversariis suis:
15 because they have done that which is evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger, since the day their fathers came forth 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 Ægypto, usque ad hanc diem.
16 Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, until he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; besides his sin with which he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight 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 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Reliqua autem sermonum Manasse, ut universa quæ fecit, et peccatum eius, quod peccavit, nonne hæc scripta sunt in Libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda?
18 Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza: and Amon his son reigned in his place.
Dormivitque Manasses cum patribus suis, et sepultus est in horto domus suæ, in horto Oza: et regnavit Amon filius eius pro eo.
19 Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
Viginti duorum annorum erat Amon cum regnare cœpisset: duobus quoque annis regnavit in Ierusalem. Nomen matris eius Messalemeth filia Harus de Ieteba.
20 He did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, as Manasseh his father did.
Fecitque malum in conspectu Domini, sicut fecerat Manasses pater eius.
21 He walked in all the way that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshiped them:
Et ambulavit in omni via, per quam ambulaverat pater eius: servivitque immunditiis, quibus servierat pater eius, et adoravit eas,
22 and he forsook YHWH, the God of his fathers, and did not walk in the way of YHWH.
et dereliquit Dominum Deum patrum suorum, et non ambulavit in via Domini.
23 The servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house.
Tetenderuntque ei insidias servi sui, et interfecerunt regem in domo sua.
24 But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.
Percussit autem populus terræ omnes, qui coniuraverant contra regem Amon: et constituerunt sibi regem Iosiam filium eius pro eo.
25 Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Reliqua autem sermonum Amon quæ fecit, nonne hæc scripta sunt in Libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda?
26 He was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza: and Josiah his son reigned in his place.
Sepelieruntque eum in sepulchro suo, in horto Oza: et regnavit Iosias filius eius pro eo.
