At twelve years old, Manasseh became king and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hephzibah. But what he did displeased the Lord. He rebuilt the high places, raised up altars for Baal, made an image of the fertility goddess Asherah and worshiped all the host of heaven and served them. He built altars in the house of the Lord and in the courts. He made his son pass through the fire. He practiced sorcery and enchantments. He also put the image of Asherah in the house of the Lord, who said, “I will choose Jerusalem and they will do all commandments that Moses proclaimed.”
And the Lord spoke by his servants the prophets, saying, “Because Manasseh king of Judah has done these abominations which are worse than all the abominations that the Amorites have done and because he has made Judah sin, I will bring evil on Jerusalem and Judah. It shall be a measuring line, I will wipe them out like a bowl and what is left over I will to leave to their enemies.” Manasseh shed much innocent blood until Jerusalem until become completely filled with it. When he slept with his fathers and was buried in the garden of his father Uzza, Amon who was twenty-two years old, reigned for two years. But he also did what displeased the Lord, just as Manasseh did. But his servants conspired against him and killed him. Josiah became king in his place.
