He repaired the altar of ADONAI and offered on it sacrifices as peace offerings and for thanksgiving; and he ordered Y'hudah to serve ADONAI the God of Isra'el.
17
However, the people continued sacrificing on the high places, although only to ADONAI their God.
18
Other activities of M'nasheh, his prayer to his God and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of ADONAI the God of Isra'el are recorded in the Annals of the Kings of Isra'el.

Also his prayer and how God was moved by his plea, all his sin and disloyalty, and the locations where he built high places and set up the sacred poles and carved images before he humbled himself are written in the History of the Seers.

Then M'nasheh slept with his ancestors and was buried at his own house, and Amon his son took his place as king.
21
Amon was twenty-two years old when he began his reign, and he ruled for two years in Yerushalayim.
22
He did what was evil from ADONAI's perspective, as had M'nasheh his father. Amon sacrificed to all the carved images that M'nasheh his father had made, and served them.
23
He did not humble himself before ADONAI, as M'nasheh his father had done; rather, this Amon kept adding to his guilt.
24
His servants conspired against him and put the king to death in his own palace.
25
But the people of the land put to death all those who had been part of the conspiracy against King Amon. Then the people of the land made Yoshiyahu his son king in place of him.
