¹Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Hephzibah.

¹[Ny nanjakan'i Manase sy Amona] Roa ambin'ny folo taona Manase, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary dimy amby dimam-polo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Hefziba.

²And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, like the abominations of the nations that Jehovah had dispossessed from before the children of Israel.

²Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason'i Jehovah izy tahaka ny fahavetavetan'ny firenena izay noroahin'i Jehovah tsy ho eo anoloan'ny Zanak'Isiraely.

³And he built again the high places that Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars to Baal and made an Asherah, as did Ahab king of Israel; and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.

³Fa namboariny indray ny fitoerana avo, izay noravan'i Hezekia rainy, ka nanangana alitara ho an'i Bala izy sady nanao Aseraha, tahaka izay nataon'i Ahaba, mpanjakan'ny Isiraely; ary niankohoka teo anatrehan'izay rehetra eny amin'ny lanitra izy ka nanompo ireny,

⁴And he built altars in the house of Jehovah, of which Jehovah had said, In Jerusalem will I put my name.

⁴sady nanao alitara tao an-tranon'i Jehovah koa izy, dia tao amin'izay nolazain'i Jehovah hoe: Ao Jerosalema no hasiako ny anarako.

⁵And he built altars to all the host of heaven in both courts of the house of Jehovah.

⁵Fa nanao alitara teo anatin'ny kianja roa tamin'ny tranon'i Jehovah ho an'izay rehetra eny amin'ny lanitra izy.

⁶And he caused his son to pass through the fire, and used magic and divination, and appointed necromancers and soothsayers: he wrought evil beyond measure in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger.

⁶Ary ny zanany nampamakiny ny afo, sady nanandro sy nanao sikidy izy ary naka ny manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra sy ny mpanao hatsarana, ary nahery nanao izay ratsy eo imason'i Jehovah izy ka nampahatezitra Azy.

⁷And he set the graven image of the Asherah that he had made, in the house of which Jehovah had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever;

⁷Ary ny sarin'i Astarta izay nataony dia napetrany tao amin'ny trano nolazain'i Jehovah tamin'i Davida sy Solomona zanany hoe: Ato amin'ity trano ity sy eto Jerosalema, izay nofidiko tamin'ny firenen'Isiraely rehetra, no hasiako ny anarako mandrakizay.

⁸neither will I any more cause the foot of Israel to wander away from the land that I gave their fathers; if they will only take heed to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.

⁸Ary tsy hampandeha ny tongotry ny Isiraely intsony hiala amin'ny tany izay nomeko ny razany Aho, raha mba hitandrina ka hanao araka izay rehetra nandidiako azy sy araka ny lalàna rehetra izay nandidian'i Mosesy mpanompoko azy ihany izy.

⁹But they would not hearken, and Manasseh led them astray to do more evil than the nations that Jehovah had destroyed from before the children of Israel.

⁹Nefa tsy nihaino izy; fa Manase nitaona azy hanao ratsy mihoatra noho ny nataon'ny jentilisa, izay naringan'i Jehovah tsy ho eo anoloan'ny Zanak'Isiraely.

¹⁰And Jehovah spoke by his servants the prophets saying,

¹⁰Ary Jehovah nampilaza ny mpaminany mpanompony hoe:

¹¹Because Manasseh king of Judah hath done these abominations, and hath done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, who were before him, and hath made Judah also to sin with his idols;

¹¹Satria Manase, mpanjakan'ny Joda, nanao izao fahavetavetana izao ka nanao ratsy mihoatra noho izay rehetra nataon'ny Amorita izay teo alohany sady nampanota ny Joda tamin'ny sampiny,

¹²therefore thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle.

¹²dia izao kosa no lazain'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Indro, hahatonga loza amin'i Jerosalema sy ny Joda Aho, ka izay rehetra mandre izany dia hangintsingintsina ny sofiny roa.

¹³And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab, and I will wipe Jerusalem as one wipeth a pan, wiping it and turning it upside down.

¹³Ary hohenjaniko ato Jerosalema ny famolainan'i Samaria sy ny pilaon'ny taranak'i Ahaba; ary hamaoka an'i Jerosalema Aho, toy ny olona mamaoka lovia ka sady mamaoka no manohoka azy koa.

¹⁴And I will forsake the remnant of mine inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies; and they shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies;

¹⁴Ary hafoiko ny lovako sisa ka hatolotro ho eo an-tànan'ny fahavalony; dia ho sambotra sy ho babon'ny fahavalony rehetra izy,

¹⁵because they have done evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger, since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt even to this day.

¹⁵satria efa nanao izay ratsy eo imasoko izy ka nampahatezitra Ahy hatramin'ny andro nivoahan'ny razany avy any Egypta ka mandraka androany.

¹⁶And Manasseh shed very much innocent blood, till he had filled Jerusalem [with it] from one end to another; beside his sin with which he made Judah to sin, in doing evil in the sight of Jehovah.

¹⁶Ary na dia ny rà marina aza dia nalatsak'i Manase be dia be mandra-pamenony an'i Jerosalema rehetra, ho fanampin'ny ota izay nampanotany ny Joda tamin'ny nanaovany izay ratsy eo imason'i Jehovah.

¹⁷And the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin which he sinned, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

¹⁷Ary ny tantaran'i Manase sisa mbamin'izay rehetra nataony sy ny fahotana izay nataony, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin'ny bokin'ny tantaran'ny mpanjakan'ny Joda va izany?

¹⁸And 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.

¹⁸Ary Manase lasa nodi-mandry any amin'ny razany, dia nalevina teo an-tanimboly eo ala-tranony amin'ny sahan'i Oza; ary Amona zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.

¹⁹Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Meshullemeth, daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.

¹⁹Roa amby roa-polo taona Amona, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary roa taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema, Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Mesolemeta, zanakavavin'i Haroza, avy any Jotba.

²⁰And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, as Manasseh his father had done;

²⁰Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason'i Jehovah koa izy tahaka ny nataon'i Manase rainy.

²¹and he walked in all the way that his father had walked in, and served the idols that his father had served, and worshipped them;

²¹Fa nandeha tamin'ny lalana rehetra izay efa nalehan-drainy izy ka nanompo ny sampy izay notompoin-drainy sady niankohoka teo anatrehany.

²²and he forsook Jehovah the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of Jehovah.

²²Ary nahafoy an'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, izy, fa tsy nandeha tamin'ny lalan'i Jehovah.

²³And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and slew the king in his own house.

²³Ary ny mpanompon'i Amona mpanjaka nikomy taminy ka namono azy tao an-tranony.

²⁴But the people of the land smote all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.

²⁴Ary ny vahoaka namono izay rehetra nikomy tamin'i Amona mpanjaka, dia nampanjaka an'i Josia zanany hisolo azy.

²⁵And the rest of the acts of Amon, what he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

²⁵Ary ny tantaran'i Amona sisa, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin'ny bokin'ny tantaran'ny mpanjakan'ny Joda va izany?Ary nalevina tao amin'ny fasany tao amin'ny sahan'i Oza izy; ary Josia zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.

²⁶And he was buried in his sepulchre in the garden of Uzza; and Josiah his son reigned in his stead.

²⁶Ary nalevina tao amin'ny fasany tao amin'ny sahan'i Oza izy; ary Josia zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
