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

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.

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

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.

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 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.

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

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

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

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

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 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;

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.

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.

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

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.

¹⁰A Hospodin hovoril skrze svojich služobníkov prorokov a riekol:

¹⁰And Jehovah spoke by 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,

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;

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 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.

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 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.

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

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;

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 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.

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 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.

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 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?

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 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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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;

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

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

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

²³And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and slew the king 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.

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.

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

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?

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

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