1 Nifolo taoñe ro’amby t’i Menasè te niorotse nifehe, le nifehe limampolo taoñe lim’ amby e Ierosalaime ao;
Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-five years.
2 naho nitolon-karatiañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà, manahake ty haloloa’ o kilakila’ ondaty niroahe’ Iehovà aolo’ o ana’ Israeleoo.
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD by following the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
3 Rinanji’e indraike o tamboho rinoba’ Iekizkia rae’eo naho nampitroara’e kitrely o Baaleo naho nitsenea’e Asere; naho nitalahoa’e vaho nitoroñe i valobohòn-dikerañey.
For he rebuilt the high places that his father Hezekiah had torn down, and he raised up altars for the Baals and made Asherah poles. And he worshiped and served all the host of heaven.
4 Le namboara’e kitrely añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao, ie nanao ty hoe t’Iehovà: E Ierosa­laime ao nainai’e ty hampipohako ty añarako.
Manasseh also built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, “My Name will remain in Jerusalem forever.”
5 Le nandranjia’e kitrely iaby i valobohòn-dikerañey an-kiririsa roe’ i anjomba’ Iehovày.
In both courtyards of the house of the LORD, he built altars to all the host of heaven.
6 Nampirangae’e añ’afo am-bavatanen’ ana’ i Hinome ao o ana’eo naho nañandro naho nanikily naho namoreke naho nitroboen-jiny naho kokolampa; vaho nitolon-kaloloañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà, hiviñera’e.
He sacrificed his sons in the fire in the Valley of Hinnom. He practiced sorcery, divination, and witchcraft, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did great evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger.
7 Le napo’e añ’ anjomban’ Añahare ao ty saren-drahare nitsene’e, ie fa nanao ty hoe amy Davide naho amy Selomò t’i Andrianañahare, te, Ami’ty anjomba toy, e Ierosalaime etoa, i jinoboko amy ze hene’ fifokoa’ Israeley ty hampijadoñako ty añarako nainai’e;
Manasseh even took the carved image he had made and set it up in the house of God, of which God had said to David and his son Solomon, “In this temple and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will establish My Name forever.
8 le tsy hasintako an-tane’ tinendreko aman-droae’ areo ty fandia’ Israele naho ambena’ iareo ty hanao ze nandili­ako iareo amy Hake ao iaby naho amo fañè vaho fepetse am-pità’ i Mosèo.
I will never again cause the feet of the Israelites to leave the land that I assigned to your fathers, if only they are careful to do all that I have commanded them through Moses—all the laws, statutes, and judgments.”
9 Le nampanan-kakeo o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo t’i Menasè, nandikoara’ iareo ty haratia’ o kilakila’ ondaty rinotsa’ Iehovà aolo’ o ana’ Israeleoo.
So Manasseh led the people of Judah and Jerusalem astray, so that they did greater evil than the nations that the LORD had destroyed before the Israelites.
10 Mbore ni­tsara amy Menasè naho ondati’eo t’Iehovà, fe tsy nañaoñe.
And the LORD spoke to Manasseh and his people, but they did not listen.
11 Toly ndra nampivotrahe’ Iehovà am’ iereo o mpifehem-balobohò’ i mpanjaka’ i Asoreio naho nendese’ iareo am-porengotse t’i Menasè, vinahotse an-torisike vaho nasese mb’e Bavele añe.
So the LORD brought against them the military commanders of the king of Assyria, who captured Manasseh, put a hook in his nose, bound him with bronze shackles, and took him to Babylon.
12 Aa ie nisotry, le nipay Iehovà Andrianañahare’e vaho nidrakadrakak’ añatrefan’ Añaharen-droae’e;
And in his distress, Manasseh sought the favor of the LORD his God and earnestly humbled himself before the God of his fathers.
13 le nitoreova’e; aa le niferenaiña’e naho jinanji’e i halali’ey naho nendese’e nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime, mb’am-pifehea’e ao vaho nifohi’ i Menasè amy zao te Iehovà ro Andrianañahare.
And when he prayed to Him, the LORD received his plea and heard his petition; so He brought him back to Jerusalem and to his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD is God.
14 Ie añe le namboare’e kijoly alafe’ i rova’ i Davidey, añ’ ila’ ahan­drefa’ i Gihone, am-bavatane eo, pak’ amy fimoahañe an-dalambeim-piañey, niarikatoke ty Ofele naho nampitroare’e an-tiotiotsey; le nampijadoña’e mpifehen-dahin­defoñe o rova-fatrats’ Iehoda iabio.
After this, Manasseh rebuilt the outer wall of the City of David from west of Gihon in the valley to the entrance of the Fish Gate, and he brought it around the hill of Ophel and heightened it considerably. He also stationed military commanders in all the fortified cities of Judah.
15 Le nafaha’e o ndrahare ankafankafao naho i samposampon-draha añ’ anjomba’Iehovày naho ze fonga kitrely niranjie’e an-kaboa’ i anjomba’ Iehovày naho e Ierosalaime ao vaho navokovoko’e alafe’ i rovay.
He removed the foreign gods and the idol from the house of the LORD, along with all the altars he had built on the temple mount and in Jerusalem, and he dumped them outside the city.
16 Le nisomontie’e ty kitreli’ Iehovà naho nañenga sorom-pañanintsiñe naho fañandriañañe añama’e vaho linili’e t’Iehoda ty hitoroñe Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele.
Then he restored the altar of the LORD and sacrificed peace offerings and thank offerings on it, and he told Judah to serve the LORD, the God of Israel.
17 Fe mb’e nisoroñe amo tambohoo ondatio, fa toe amy Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo.
Nevertheless, the people still sacrificed at the high places, but only to the LORD their God.
18 Aa le ty ila’ o fitoloña’ i Menasèo naho i halali’e aman’ Añahare’ey naho ty saontsi’ o mpioniñe nisaontsy ama’e ami’ ty tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israeleo; oniño t’ie misokitse amo fitoloñam-panjaka’ Israeleo.
As for the rest of the acts of Manasseh, along with his prayer to his God and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, they are indeed written in the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
19 Le i fitoreo’ey naho i niferenaiñañ’ azey naho o hakeo naho tahi’e iabio naho o toetse namboara’e tambohoo naho nampitroara’e Asere naho saren-draha sinokitse aolo’ t’ie nire-batañe; inao, t’ie misokitse amo talilim-pioniñeo.
His prayer and how God received his plea, as well as all his sin and unfaithfulness, and the sites where he built high places and set up Asherah poles and idols before he humbled himself, they are indeed written in the Records of the Seers.
20 Aa le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Menasè vaho nandimbe aze nifehe t’i Amone ana’e.
And Manasseh rested with his fathers and was buried at his palace. And his son Amon reigned in his place.
21 Roapolo taoñe ro’amby t’i Amone te niorotse nifehe vaho nifehe roe taoñe e Ierosalaime ao,
Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years.
22 le nanao ze haratiañe ampivazohoa’ Iehovà manahak’ i Menasè rae’e; le nisoroña’ i Amone iaby o sare-sokitse niranjien-drae’eo vaho nitoroñe iareo.
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done. Amon served and sacrificed to all the idols that his father Manasseh had made,
23 Tsy nire-batañe añatrefa’ Iehovà re manahake ty fireham-bata’ i Menasè rae’e, fe nitombo avao ty hakeo’ i Amone.
but he did not humble himself before the LORD as his father Manasseh had done; instead, Amon increased his guilt.
24 Aa le nikilily aze o mpitoro’eo vaho vinono’ iareo añ’ anjomba’e ao.
Then the servants of Amon conspired against him and killed him in his palace.
25 Fe zinevo’ ondati’ i taneio ka o nikinia i Amone mpanjakao; le nanoe’ o mpimone’ i taneio mpanjaka’ t’Iosià ana’e handimbe aze.
But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they made his son Josiah king in his place.
