15
because they have done
that which was evil in my sight and have provoked me to anger since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even unto this day.
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 sin so that they would do
that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
17
Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh and all that he did and his sin with which he sinned,
are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
18
And 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 stead.
19
Amon
was twenty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name
was Meshullemeth, the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
20
And he did
that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done.
21
And he walked in all the way that his father walked in and served the idols that his father had served and worshipped them;
22
and he forsook the LORD God of his fathers and did not walk in the way of the LORD.
23
And the slaves of Amon conspired against him and slew the king in his own house.
24
Then the people of the land slew all those that had conspired against King Amon, and the people of the land made Josiah, his son, king in his stead.
25
Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did,
are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
