The Latin Vulgate VUL
1 Manasseh was of twelve years, when he began to reign, and he reigned five and fifty years in Jerusalem; the name of his mother was Hephzibah.
1
duodecim annorum erat Manasses cum regnare coepisset et quinquaginta quinque annis regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Aphsiba
2 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, after the evils of heathen men, the which men the Lord did away from the face of the sons of Israel.
2
fecitque malum in conspectu Domini iuxta idola gentium quas delevit Dominus a facie filiorum Israhel
3 And he was turned, and builded [up] (again the) high things, which Hezekiah, his father (had) destroyed; and he raised up altars of Baal, and he made maumet woods, as Ahab, king of Israel, had done; and he worshipped withoutforth all the knighthood of (the) heaven(s), and worshipped it in heart. (And he rebuilt the hill shrines, which his father Hezekiah had destroyed; and he raised up altars for Baal, and he made idol groves, or a sacred pole, like Ahab, the king of Israel, had done; and he worshipped withoutforth all the host of heaven, and also worshipped them with his heart.)
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
4 And he builded altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord said, I shall set my name in Jerusalem. (And he built altars in the House of the Lord, of which the Lord had said, I shall set my name in Jerusalem there.)
4
extruxitque aras in domo Domini de qua dixit Dominus in Hierusalem ponam nomen meum
5 And he builded altars to all the knighthood of (the) heaven(s) in the two large places of the temple of the Lord; (And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two large courtyards of the Temple of the Lord;)
5
et extruxit altaria universae militiae caeli in duobus atriis templi Domini
6 and he led over his son through the fire; and he used false divinings in altars, on which sacrifice was made to fiends, and he kept false divinings by chittering of birds; and he made men to have evil spirits speaking in the womb, and he multiplied false diviners in entrails of beasts sacrificed to fiends, that he should do evil before the Lord, and stir him to ire. (and he burned, or sacrificed, his own son in the fire; and he practiced false divinings at altars on which sacrifice was made to fiends, and he did false divinings by the twittering of birds; and he made men to have evil spirits speaking in their wombs, and he increased the number of false diviners of the entrails of beasts sacrificed to fiends, and he did evil before the Lord, and stirred him to anger.)
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
7 And he set an idol of wood, that he had made, in the temple of the Lord, of which temple the Lord spake to David, and to Solomon, his son, saying, I shall set my name without end in this temple, and in Jerusalem, which I chose (out) of all the lineages of Israel. (And he set up a wooden idol, that he had made, in the Temple of the Lord, of which Temple the Lord spoke to David, and to his son Solomon, saying, I shall set my name without end in this Temple, and in Jerusalem, which I chose out of all the tribes of Israel.)
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
8 And I shall no more make the foot of Israel to be moved from the land which I gave to the fathers of them; so nevertheless if they keep in work all things that I have commanded to them, and all the law that Moses, my servant, commanded to them.
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
9 Soothly they heard not, but were deceived of Manasseh, that they did evil over heathen men, which the Lord all-brake from the face of the sons of Israel. (But they would not listen, and were deceived by Manasseh, and they did more evil than the heathen, whom the Lord had destroyed before the Israelites.)
9
illi vero non audierunt sed seducti sunt a Manasse ut facerent malum super gentes quas contrivit Dominus a facie filiorum Israhel
10 And the Lord spake in the hand of his servants (the) prophets, and said, (And the Lord spoke by his servants the prophets, and said,)
10
locutusque est Dominus in manu servorum suorum prophetarum dicens
11 For Manasseh, king of Judah, did these worst abominations over all things which (the) Amorites did before him, and made also the people of Judah to do sin in his uncleannesses (and also made the people of Judah to do sin with his idols);
11
quia fecit Manasses rex Iuda abominationes istas pessimas super omnia quae fecerunt Amorrei ante eum et peccare fecit etiam Iudam in inmunditiis suis
12 therefore the Lord God of Israel saith these things, Lo! I shall bring in evils upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whoever heareth (of it), both his ears [shall] tingle, or ring;
12
propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus Israhel ecce ego inducam mala super Hierusalem et Iudam ut quicumque audierit tinniant ambae aures eius
13 and I shall hold forth upon Jerusalem the cord of Samaria, and the burden of the house of Ahab, and I shall do away Jerusalem, as tables be wont to be done away; and I shall do (it) away and overturn it, and I shall lead full oft a pointel upon the face thereof. (and I shall hold forth upon Jerusalem the cord of Samaria, and the plummet, or the plumb-line, of the house of Ahab; and I shall wipe Jerusalem clean like dishes be wont to be wiped clean, and turned upside-down; and I shall do it away and overturn it, and I shall scratch a stylus over its face.)
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
14 Forsooth I shall leave [the] remnants of mine heritage, and I shall betake them into the hand of enemies thereof; and they shall be in destroying, and in raven to all their adversaries; (And I shall abandon the remnants of my inheritance, and I shall deliver them into the hands of their enemies; and they shall be destroyed, and become spoils for all their adversaries;)
14
dimittam vero reliquias hereditatis meae et tradam eas in manu inimicorum eius eruntque in vastitate et rapina cunctis adversariis suis
15 for they did evil before me, and they continued in stirring me to ire, from the day in which their fathers went out of the land of Egypt, unto this day.
15
eo quod fecerint malum coram me et perseveraverint inritantes me ex die qua egressi sunt patres eorum ex Aegypto usque ad diem hanc
16 Furthermore also Manasseh shedded full much innocent blood, till he filled Jerusalem unto the mouth, without his sins by which he made Judah to do sin, to do evil before the Lord. (And furthermore Manasseh shed a great deal of innocent blood, until he had filled Jerusalem up to the mouth, and this is besides his sins by which he made Judah to do sin, yea, to do evil before the Lord.)
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
17 Forsooth the residue of the words of Manasseh, and all things that he did, and his sin that he sinned, whether these be not written in the book of [the] words of [the] days of the kings of Judah?
17
reliqua autem sermonum Manasse et universa quae fecit et peccatum eius quod peccavit nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda
18 And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his house, in the garden of Uzza; and Amon, his son, reigned for him.
18
dormivitque Manasses cum patribus suis et sepultus est in horto domus suae in horto Aza et regnavit Amon filius eius pro eo
19 Amon was of two and twenty years, when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem; the name of his mother was Meshullemeth, the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
19
viginti et duo annorum erat Amon cum regnare coepisset duobusque annis regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Mesallemeth filia Arus de Iethba
20 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, as Manasseh, his father, had done.
20
fecitque malum in conspectu Domini sicut fecerat Manasses pater eius
21 And he went in all the way, by which his father had gone, and he served to [the] uncleannesses, that is, (the) idols, to which his father had served, and he worshipped those;
21
et ambulavit in omni via per quam ambulaverat pater eius servivitque inmunditiis quibus servierat pater suus et adoravit eas
22 and he forsook the Lord God of his fathers, and he went not in the way of the Lord.
22
et dereliquit Dominum Deum patrum suorum et non ambulavit in via Domini
23 And his servants setted treasons to him, and killed the king in his house. (And his servants set treason against him, and killed the king in his own house.)
23
tetenderuntque ei insidias servi sui et interfecerunt regem in domo sua
24 Soothly the people of the Lord smote all the men, that had conspired against king Amon, and they ordained to them a king, Josiah, his son, for him. (And the people of the Lord struck down all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they ordained for themselves Josiah, Amon's son, to be king in his place.)
24
percussit autem populus terrae omnes qui coniuraverant contra regem Amon et constituerunt sibi regem Iosiam filium eius pro eo
25 Forsooth the residue of [the] words of Amon, (and all the things) which he did, whether these be not written in the book of [the] words of [the] days of the kings of Judah?
25
reliqua autem sermonum Amon quae fecit nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda
26 And he slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the sepulchre in the garden of Uzza; and Josiah, his son, reigned for him.
26
sepelieruntque eum in sepulchro suo in horto Aza et regnavit Iosias filius eius pro eo
