However, the people still made offerings in the high places, but only to the Lord their God.

Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the words which the seers said to him in the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, are recorded among the acts of the kings of Israel.
19
And the prayer which he made to God, and how God gave him an answer, and all his sin and his wrongdoing, and the places where he made high places and put up pillars of wood and images, before he put away his pride, are recorded in the history of the seers.

So Manasseh went to rest with his fathers, and they put his body to rest in his house, and Amon his son became king in his place.
21
Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king; and he was ruling for two years in Jerusalem.
22
He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Manasseh his father had done; and Amon made offerings to all the images which his father Manasseh had made, and was their servant.
23
He did not make himself low before the Lord, as his father Manasseh had done, but went on sinning more and more.
24
And his servants made a secret design against him, and put him to death in his house.
25
But the people of the land put to death all those who had taken part in the design against King Amon, and made his son Josiah king in his place.
