Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the Lord God of Israel, these are in the Annals of the Kings of Israel.
19
His prayer, and how God received his entreaty, all his sin and his faithlessness, the sites on which he built high places and set up the sacred poles and the images, before he humbled himself, these are written in the records of the seers.

So Manasseh slept with his ancestors, and they buried him in his house. His son Amon succeeded him.
21
Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
22
He did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, as his father Manasseh had done. Amon sacrificed to all the images that his father Manasseh had made, and served them.
23
He did not humble himself before the Lord, as his father Manasseh had humbled himself, but this Amon incurred more and more guilt.
24
His servants conspired against him and killed him in his house.
25
But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon; and the people of the land made his son Josiah king to succeed him.
