¹Manasse oli kuningaks saades kaksteist aastat vana ja ta valitses Jeruusalemmas viiskümmend viis aastat.

¹Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.

²Tema tegi kurja Issanda silmis nende rahvaste jõleduste eeskujul, kelle Issand oli ära ajanud Iisraeli laste eest.

²He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, after the abominations of the nations whom Yahweh cast out before the children of Israel.

³Tema ehitas jälle üles ohvrikünkad, mis ta isa Hiskija oli maha kiskunud, ja ta püstitas altareid baalidele, valmistas Aðera kujusid ja kummardas kõiki taevavägesid ning teenis neid.

³For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he reared up altars for the Baals, and made Asheroth, and worshiped all the army of the sky, and served them.

⁴Tema ehitas altareid Issanda kotta, kuigi Issand oli öelnud: 'Jeruusalemmas peab minu nimi olema igavesti!'

⁴He built altars in the house of Yahweh, of which Yahweh said, “My name shall be in Jerusalem forever.”

⁵Tema ehitas altareid kõigile taevavägedele Issanda koja kumbagi õue.

⁵He built altars for all the army of the sky in the two courts of the house of Yahweh.

⁶Tema laskis oma pojad tulest läbi käia Ben-Hinnomi orus, toimetas lausumist ja kuulutas märkidest, nõidus ning seadis vaimudemanajaid ja ennustajaid; ta tegi palju kurja Issanda silmis ja vihastas teda.

⁶He also made his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom; and he practiced sorcery, and used enchantments, and practiced sorcery, and dealt with those who had familiar spirits, and with wizards: he worked much evil in the sight of Yahweh, to provoke him to anger.

⁷Tema paigutas Jumala kotta nikerdatud ebajumalakuju, mille ta oli valmistanud, kuigi Jumal oli öelnud Taavetile ja ta pojale Saalomonile: 'Siia kotta ja Jeruusalemma, mille ma olen valinud kõigist Iisraeli suguharudest, panen ma oma nime igaveseks ajaks.

⁷He set the engraved image of the idol, which he had made, in God’s house, of which God 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 forever:

⁸Ma ei vii enam Iisraeli jalga ära sellelt maalt, mille ma olen määranud teie vanemaile, kui nad ainult panevad tähele ja teevad kõike, mida ma Moosese läbi neid olen käskinud, mis puutub kogu Seadusesse, määrustesse ja seadlustesse.'

⁸neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers, if only they will observe to do all that I have commanded them, even all the law and the statutes and the ordinances given by Moses.”

⁹Aga Manasse ahvatles Juuda ja Jeruusalemma elanikke tegema rohkem kurja, kui tegid need paganad, kelle Issand oli hävitanud Iisraeli laste eest.

⁹Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did more evil than the nations whom Yahweh destroyed before the children of Israel did.

¹⁰Ja Issand rääkis Manassele ja tema rahvale, aga nemad ei pannud tähele.

¹⁰Yahweh spoke to Manasseh, and to his people; but they gave no heed.

¹¹Siis tõi Issand nende kallale Assuri kuninga sõjaväepealikud ja need võtsid Manasse kinni peiduurkas, sidusid ta vaskahelatega ja viisid Paabelisse.

¹¹Therefore Yahweh brought on them the captains of the army of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh in chains, and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.

¹²Aga kui tal kitsas käes oli, siis ta püüdis leevendada Issanda, oma Jumala palet ja alandas ennast väga oma vanemate Jumala ees.

¹²When he was in distress, he begged Yahweh his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.

¹³Ja kui ta palvetas tema poole, siis andis Jumal temale järele, kuulis ta anumist ja tõi tema tagasi Jeruusalemma, ta oma kuningriiki. Siis mõistis Manasse, et Issand on Jumal.

¹³He prayed to him; and he was entreated by him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that Yahweh was God.

¹⁴Ja seejärel ehitas ta Taaveti linna välimise müüri orgu Giihonist lääne pool, Kalavärava suunas ja ümber templikünka, tehes selle väga kõrgeks; ja ta paigutas väepealikud kõigisse Juuda kindlustatud linnadesse.

¹⁴Now after this he built an outer wall to the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance at the fish gate; and he encircled Ophel with it, and raised it up to a very great height: and he put valiant captains in all the fortified cities of Judah.

¹⁵Ta kõrvaldas võõrad jumalad ja kuju Issanda kojast, samuti kõik altarid, mis ta oli ehitanud Issanda koja mäele ja Jeruusalemma, ja viskas need linnast välja.

¹⁵He took away the foreign gods, and the idol out of the house of Yahweh, and all the altars that he had built in the mountain of the house of Yahweh, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.

¹⁶Ja ta seadis korda Issanda altari ning ohverdas selle peal tänu- ja kiituseohvreid, ja andis Juudale käsu teenida Issandat, Iisraeli Jumalat.

¹⁶He built up the altar of Yahweh, and offered thereon sacrifices of peace offerings and of thanksgiving, and commanded Judah to serve Yahweh, the God of Israel.

¹⁷Ometi ohverdas rahvas veelgi ohvriküngastel, kuigi Issandale, oma Jumalale.

¹⁷Nevertheless the people sacrificed still in the high places, but only to Yahweh their God.

¹⁸Ja muud Manasse lood ja tema palve oma Jumala poole ning nende nägijate sõnad, kes temale rääkisid Issanda, Iisraeli Jumala nimel, vaata, need on Iisraeli Kuningate raamatus.

¹⁸Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel, behold, they are written among the acts of the kings of Israel.

¹⁹Ja tema palve ning kuidas seda kuulda võeti, ja kõik tema patud ja üleastumised, ja paigad, kuhu ta ehitas ohvrikünkad, püstitas viljakustulbad ja nikerdatud kujud, enne kui ta ennast alandas, vaata, need on kirja pandud Hoosai lugudes.

¹⁹His prayer also, and how God was entreated of him, and all his sin and his trespass, and the places in which he built high places, and set up the Asherim and the engraved images, before he humbled himself: behold, they are written in the history of Hozai.

²⁰Siis Manasse läks magama oma vanemate juurde ja ta maeti oma kotta. Ja tema poeg Aamon sai tema asemel kuningaks.

²⁰So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house: and Amon his son reigned in his place.

²¹Aamon oli kuningaks saades kakskümmend kaks aastat vana ja ta valitses Jeruusalemmas kaks aastat.

²¹Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.

²²Tema tegi kurja Issanda silmis, nõnda nagu tema isa Manasse oli teinud. Aamon ohverdas kõigile nikerdatud kujudele, mis ta isa Manasse oli teinud, ja teenis neid.

²²He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as did Manasseh his father; and Amon sacrificed to all the engraved images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them.

²³Aga ta ei alandanud ennast Issanda ees, nõnda nagu tema isa Manasse oli ennast alandanud, vaid tema, Aamon, suurendas süüd.

²³He didn’t humble himself before Yahweh, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but this same Amon trespassed more and more.

²⁴Siis pidasid ta sulased vandenõu tema vastu ja nad surmasid ta tema oma kojas.

²⁴His servants conspired against him, and put him to death in his own house.

²⁵Aga maa rahvas lõi maha kõik need, kes olid pidanud vandenõu kuningas Aamoni vastu, ja maa rahvas tõstis tema poja Joosija tema asemele kuningaks.

²⁵But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.
