¹Manasses mal dvanásť rokov, keď začal kraľovať, a kraľoval päťdesiatpäť rokov v Jeruzaleme. A meno jeho matky bolo Chefcíba.

¹A son of twelve years [is] Manasseh in his reigning, and fifty and five years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Hephzi-Bah;

²A robil to, čo je zlé v očiach Hospodinových, podľa ohavností národov, ktoré vyhnal Hospodin zpred tvári synov Izraelových.

²and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, according to the abominations of the nations that Jehovah dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel,

³Lebo zase vystavil výšiny, ktoré bol skazil Ezechiáš, jeho otec, a postavil oltáre Bálovi a spravil háj, ako bol spravil Achab, izraelský kráľ, a klaňal sa všetkému vojsku nebeskému a slúžil im.

³and he turneth and buildeth the high places that Hezekiah his father destroyed, and raiseth altars for Baal, and maketh a shrine, as did Ahab king of Israel, and boweth himself to all the host of the heavens, and serveth them.

⁴A vystavil oltáre v dome Hospodinovom, o ktorom povedal Hospodin: V Jeruzaleme položím svoje meno.

⁴And he hath built altars in the house of Jehovah, of which Jehovah said, `In Jerusalem I put My name.`

⁵A vystavil oltáre všetkému vojsku nebeskému, v oboch nádvoriach domu Hospodinovho.

⁵And he buildeth altars to all the host of the heavens in the two courts of the house of Jehovah;

⁶Aj previedol svojho syna cez oheň a planetáril a veštil a nadovážil si duchárov, ktorí vyvolávali duchov, a vedomcov a robil mnoho takého, čo je zlé v očiach Hospodinových, aby ho popudzoval.

⁶and he hath caused his son to pass through fire, and observed clouds, and used enchantment, and dealt with a familiar spirit and wizards; he hath multiplied to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah — to provoke to anger.

⁷K tomu ešte postavil aj rytinu hája, ktorú spravil, v dome, o ktorom povedal Hospodin Dávidovi a Šalamúnovi, jeho synovi: V tomto dome a v Jeruzaleme, ktorý som si vyvolil zpomedzi všetkých pokolení Izraelových, položím svoje meno, aby tam bolo až na veky.

⁷And he setteth the graven image of the shrine that he made in the house of which Jehovah said unto David and unto Solomon his son, `In this house, and in Jerusalem, that I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I put My name — to the age;

⁸A neučiním toho viacej, aby som dal, že by sa túlala noha Izraelova zo zeme, ktorú som dal ich otcom, ak len budú pozorovať, aby robili podľa všetkého toho, čo som im prikázal, a všetok zákon, ktorý im prikázal môj služobník Mojžiš.

⁸and I do not add to cause the foot of Israel to move from the ground that I gave to their fathers, only, if they observe to do according to all that I commanded them, and to all the law that My servant Moses commanded them.`

⁹Ale neposlúchali, a Manasses ich zaviedol, aby robili zlé, a horšie ako národy, ktoré zahladil Hospodin zpred tvári synov Izraelových.

⁹And they have not hearkened, and Manasseh causeth them to err, to do the evil thing above the nations that Jehovah destroyed from the presence of the sons of Israel.

¹⁰A Hospodin hovoril skrze svojich služobníkov prorokov a riekol:

¹⁰And Jehovah speaketh by the hand of his servants the prophets, saying,

¹¹Pretože páchal Manasses, judský kráľ, tie ohavnosti a robil horšie od všetkého toho, čo robili Amoreji, ktorí boli pred ním, a spôsobil to, aby hrešil i Júda, svojimi ukydanými bohy,

¹¹`Because that Manasseh king of Judah hath done these abominations — he hath done evil above all that the Amorites have done who [are] before him, and causeth also Judah to sin by his idols;

¹²preto takto hovorí Hospodin, Bôh Izraelov: Hľa, uvediem zlé na Jeruzalem a na Júdu, takže každému, kto to počuje, bude hučať v oboch ušiach.

¹²therefore thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Lo, I am bringing in evil on Jerusalem and Judah, that whoever heareth of it, tingle do his two ears.

¹³A roztiahnem na Jeruzalem merné lano Samárie a použijem závažia domu Achabovho a vytriem Jeruzalem, ako niekto vytrie misu, vytrie a obráti ju hore dnom.

¹³And I have stretched out over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab, and wiped Jerusalem as one wipeth the dish — he hath wiped, and hath turned [it] on its face.

¹⁴A ta odvrhnem ostatok svojho dedičstva a vydám ich do ruky ich nepriateľov, a budú za lúpež a na rozchvátanie všetkým svojim nepriateľom,

¹⁴`And I have left the remnant of Mine inheritance, and given them into the hand of their enemies, and they have been for a prey and for a spoil to all their enemies,

¹⁵pretože robili to, čo je zlé v mojich očiach, a popudzovali ma hneď od toho dňa, ktorého vyšli ich otcovia z Egypta, a tak až do tohoto dňa.

¹⁵because that they have done the evil thing in Mine eyes, and are provoking Me to anger from the day that their fathers came out of Egypt, even unto this day.`

¹⁶Ba ešte aj nevinnej krvi navylieval Manasses veľmi mnoho, takže ňou naplnil Jeruzalem od jedného konca po druhý, krome svojho hriechu, ktorým spôsobil to, aby hrešil Júda, aby robil to, čo je zlé v očiach Hospodinových.

¹⁶And also, innocent blood hath Manasseh shed very much, till that he hath filled Jerusalem — mouth to mouth; apart from his sin that he hath caused Judah to sin, to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah.

¹⁷A ostatné deje Manassesove a všetko, čo robil, i jeho hriech, ktorým hrešil, či nie je to napísané v knihe letopisov kráľov Júdových?

¹⁷And the rest of the matters of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?

¹⁸A tak ľahol Manasses a ležal so svojimi otcami a bol pochovaný v zahrade svojho domu, v zahrade Uzu, a kraľoval Amon, jeho syn, miesto neho.

¹⁸And Manasseh lieth with his fathers, and is buried in the garden of his house, in the garden of Uzza, and reign doth Amon his son in his stead.

¹⁹Amon mal dvadsaťdva rokov, keď začal kraľovať, a kraľoval dva roky v Jeruzaleme. A meno jeho matky bolo Mešullemeť, dcéra Charúca z Jotby.

¹⁹A son of twenty and two years [is] Amon in his reigning, and two years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Meshullemeth daughter of Haruz of Jotbah,

²⁰A robil to, čo je zlé v očiach Hospodinových, ako robil Manasses, jeho otec,

²⁰and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, as did Manasseh his father,

²¹a chodil po každej ceste, po ktorej chodil jeho otec, a slúžil ukydaným bohom, ktorým slúžil jeho otec, a klaňal sa im.

²¹and walketh in all the way that his father walked in, and serveth the idols that his father served, and boweth himself to them,

²²A opustil Hospodina, Boha svojich otcov, a nechodil po ceste Hospodinovej.

²²and forsaketh Jehovah, God of his fathers, and hath not walked in the way of Jehovah.

²³A služobníci Amonovi sa sprisahali proti nemu a zabili kráľa v jeho dome.

²³And the servants of Amon conspire against him, and put the king to death in his own house,

²⁴A zase ľud zeme pobil všetkých tých, ktorí sa boli sprisahali proti kráľovi Amonovi, a ľud zeme urobil kráľom Joziáša, jeho syna, miesto neho.

²⁴and the people of the land smite all those conspiring against king Amon, and the people of the land cause Josiah his son to reign in his stead.

²⁵Ostatné deje Amonove, to, čo robil, či nie je to napísané v knihe letopisov kráľov Júdových?

²⁵And the rest of the matters of Amon that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?

²⁶A pochovali ho v jeho hrobe, v zahrade Uzu. A kraľoval Joziáš, jeho syn, miesto neho.

²⁶and [one] burieth him in his burying-place in the garden of Uzza, and reign doth Josiah his son in his stead.
