Ii Regum 21
1 duodecim annorum erat Manasses cum regnare coepisset et quinquaginta quinque annis regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Aphsiba
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.
2 fecitque malum in conspectu Domini iuxta idola gentium quas delevit Dominus a facie filiorum Israhel
He did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, after the abominations of the nations whom Jehovah cast out before the children of Israel.
3 conversusque est et aedificavit excelsa quae dissipaverat Ezechias pater eius et erexit aras Baal et fecit lucos sicut fecerat Ahab rex Israhel et adoravit omnem militiam caeli et coluit eam
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.
4 extruxitque aras in domo Domini de qua dixit Dominus in Hierusalem ponam nomen meum
He built altars in the house of Jehovah, of which Jehovah said, "I will put my name in Jerusalem."
5 et extruxit altaria universae militiae caeli in duobus atriis templi Domini
He built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of Jehovah.
6 et transduxit filium suum per ignem et ariolatus est et observavit auguria et fecit pythones et aruspices multiplicavit ut faceret malum coram Domino et inritaret eum
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 Jehovah, to provoke him to anger.
7 posuit quoque idolum luci quem fecerat in templo Domini super quo locutus est Dominus ad David et ad Salomonem filium eius in templo hoc et in Hierusalem quam elegi de cunctis tribubus Israhel ponam nomen meum in sempiternum
He set the engraved image of Asherah, that he had made, in the house of which Jehovah 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;
8 et ultra non faciam commoveri pedem Israhel de terra quam dedi patribus eorum sic tamen si custodierint opere omnia quae praecepi eis et universam legem quam mandavit eis servus meus Moses
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."
9 illi vero non audierunt sed seducti sunt a Manasse ut facerent malum super gentes quas contrivit Dominus a facie filiorum Israhel
But they did not listen: and Manasseh seduced them to do that which is evil more than the nations did whom Jehovah destroyed before the children of Israel.
10 locutusque est Dominus in manu servorum suorum prophetarum dicens
Jehovah spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,
11 quia fecit Manasses rex Iuda abominationes istas pessimas super omnia quae fecerunt Amorrei ante eum et peccare fecit etiam Iudam in inmunditiis suis
"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;
12 propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus Israhel ecce ego inducam mala super Hierusalem et Iudam ut quicumque audierit tinniant ambae aures eius
therefore thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel, 'Look, I bring such disaster on Jerusalem and Judah, that whoever hears of it, both his ears shall tingle.
13 et extendam super Hierusalem funiculum Samariae et pondus domus Ahab et delebo Hierusalem sicut deleri solent tabulae delens vertam et ducam crebrius stilum super faciem eius
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.
14 dimittam vero reliquias hereditatis meae et tradam eas in manu inimicorum eius eruntque in vastitate et rapina cunctis adversariis suis
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;
15 eo quod fecerint malum coram me et perseveraverint inritantes me ex die qua egressi sunt patres eorum ex Aegypto usque ad diem hanc
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.'"
16 insuper et sanguinem innoxium fudit Manasses multum nimis donec impleret Hierusalem usque ad os absque peccatis suis quibus peccare fecit Iudam ut faceret malum coram Domino
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 Jehovah.
17 reliqua autem sermonum Manasse et universa quae fecit et peccatum eius quod peccavit nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda
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?
18 dormivitque Manasses cum patribus suis et sepultus est in horto domus suae in horto Aza et regnavit Amon filius eius pro eo
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.
19 viginti et duo annorum erat Amon cum regnare coepisset duobusque annis regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Mesallemeth filia Arus de Iethba
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.
20 fecitque malum in conspectu Domini sicut fecerat Manasses pater eius
He did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, as Manasseh his father did.
21 et ambulavit in omni via per quam ambulaverat pater eius servivitque inmunditiis quibus servierat pater suus et adoravit eas
He walked in all the way that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshiped them:
22 et dereliquit Dominum Deum patrum suorum et non ambulavit in via Domini
and he forsook Jehovah, the God of his fathers, and did not walk in the way of Jehovah.
23 tetenderuntque ei insidias servi sui et interfecerunt regem in domo sua
The servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house.
24 percussit autem populus terrae omnes qui coniuraverant contra regem Amon et constituerunt sibi regem Iosiam filium eius pro eo
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.
25 reliqua autem sermonum Amon quae fecit nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda
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?
26 sepelieruntque eum in sepulchro suo in horto Aza et regnavit Iosias filius eius pro eo
He was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza: and Josiah his son reigned in his place.
