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.

¹Manasye berumur 12 tahun ketika ia menjadi raja Yehuda, dan ia memerintah di Yerusalem 55 tahun lamanya. Ibunya bernama Hefzibah.

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.

²Manasye berdosa kepada TUHAN, karena mengikuti kebiasaan-kebiasaan jahat bangsa-bangsa yang diusir TUHAN dari Kanaan pada waktu orang Israel memasuki negeri itu.

³For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal, and made an Asherah, as did Ahab king of Israel, and worshiped all the army of the sky, and served them.

³Tempat-tempat penyembahan dewa yang telah dimusnahkan Hizkia ayahnya dibangunnya kembali. Ia membangun mezbah-mezbah untuk beribadat kepada Baal, dan membuat patung Dewi Asyera, seperti yang dilakukan oleh Ahab raja Israel. Manasye juga menyembah bintang-bintang.

⁴He built altars in the house of Yahweh, of which Yahweh said, “I will put my name in Jerusalem.”

⁴TUHAN telah berkata bahwa Yerusalem adalah tempat kehadiran-Nya dan tempat ibadat kepada-Nya, tetapi di sana di Rumah TUHAN, Manasye telah mendirikan mezbah-mezbah untuk dewa-dewa.

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

⁵Di kedua halaman Rumah TUHAN itu ia mendirikan mezbah-mezbah untuk penyembahan kepada bintang-bintang.

⁶He made his son to pass through the fire, and practiced sorcery, and used enchantments, 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.

⁶Anaknya dipersembahkannya sebagai kurban bakaran. Manasye juga melakukan praktek-praktek kedukunan, penujuman, ilmu gaib, dan meminta petunjuk kepada roh-roh. Ia sangat berdosa kepada TUHAN sehingga membangkitkan kemarahan-Nya.

⁷He set the engraved image of Asherah, that he had made, in the house of which Yahweh 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;

⁷Lambang Dewi Asyera ditaruhnya di dalam Rumah TUHAN, padahal mengenai tempat itu TUHAN telah berkata kepada Daud dan Salomo putranya, "Rumah-Ku dan kota Yerusalem ini, yang telah Kupilih dari antara wilayah kedua belas suku Israel, adalah tempat yang Kutentukan sebagai tempat ibadat kepada-Ku.

⁸neither will I cause the feet of Israel to wander any more out of the land which I gave their fathers, if only they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.”

⁸Dan kalau umat Israel mentaati semua perintah-Ku dan menuruti hukum-hukum yang diberikan Musa hamba-Ku kepada mereka, maka Aku tidak akan membiarkan mereka diusir dari negeri yang telah Kuberikan kepada leluhur mereka."

⁹But they didn’t listen: and Manasseh seduced them to do that which is evil more than the nations did whom Yahweh destroyed before the children of Israel.

⁹Tetapi orang Yehuda tidak taat kepada TUHAN, dan Manasye malah menyebabkan mereka melakukan dosa-dosa yang lebih jahat dari dosa yang dilakukan oleh bangsa-bangsa yang diusir TUHAN dari Kanaan pada waktu umat Israel memasuki negeri itu.

¹⁰Yahweh spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,

¹⁰Sebab itu melalui para nabi, hamba-hamba TUHAN, TUHAN berkata,

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

¹¹"Raja Manasye jahat sekali. Perbuatannya jauh lebih jahat dari perbuatan orang Kanaan. Dengan berhala-berhala yang dibuatnya, ia menyebabkan orang Yehuda berdosa.

¹²therefore thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, ‘Behold, I bring such evil on Jerusalem and Judah, that whoever hears of it, both his ears shall tingle.

¹²Karena itu, Aku, TUHAN Allah yang disembah oleh umat Israel, akan mendatangkan bencana yang sangat besar ke atas Yerusalem dan Yehuda sehingga setiap orang yang mendengar tentang hal itu akan terkejut.

¹³I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.

¹³Yerusalem akan Kuhukum seperti Aku menghukum Samaria dan Ahab raja Israel serta keturunannya. Yerusalem akan Kusapu bersih seperti piring yang telah dicuci dan dibalikkan.

¹⁴I will cast off the remnant of my inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies. They will become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies;

¹⁴Penduduknya yang masih tertinggal akan Kubiarkan menjadi mangsa bagi musuh-musuhnya, yang akan melucuti mereka dan menjarahi negeri mereka.

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

¹⁵Semuanya itu akan Kulakukan terhadap umat-Ku karena mereka berdosa kepada-Ku dan membangkitkan kemarahan-Ku sejak leluhur mereka keluar dari Mesir sampai pada hari ini."

¹⁶Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, until he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; besides his sin with which he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh.

¹⁶Selain membuat orang Yehuda berdosa kepada TUHAN dengan menyembah berhala, Manasye juga membunuh sangat banyak orang yang tak bersalah sehingga darah mengalir di mana-mana di Yerusalem.

¹⁷Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

¹⁷Kisah lainnya mengenai Raja Manasye dan mengenai dosa-dosa yang dilakukannya, dicatat dalam buku Sejarah Raja-raja Yehuda.

¹⁸Manasseh 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 place.

¹⁸Manasye meninggal dan dikuburkan di taman istana, yaitu taman Uza. Amon putranya menjadi raja menggantikan dia.

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 the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.

¹⁹Amon berumur 22 tahun ketika ia menjadi raja Yehuda dan ia memerintah di Yerusalem dua tahun lamanya. Ibunya bernama Mesulemet anak Harus, orang Yotba.

²⁰He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as Manasseh his father did.

²⁰Seperti ayahnya, ia pun berdosa kepada TUHAN.

²¹He walked in all the way that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshiped them:

²¹Ia meniru perbuatan-perbuatan ayahnya, dan menyembah berhala-berhala yang disembah ayahnya.

²²and he forsook Yahweh, the God of his fathers, and didn’t walk in the way of Yahweh.

²²Ia tidak hidup menurut kemauan TUHAN, bahkan meninggalkan TUHAN, Allah yang disembah oleh leluhurnya.

²³The servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house.

²³Pegawai-pegawai Raja Amon berkomplot melawan dia dan membunuhnya di istana.

²⁴But 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.

²⁴Tetapi rakyat Yehuda membunuh para pembunuh Raja Amon itu, lalu mengangkat Yosia anaknya, menjadi raja.

²⁵Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

²⁵Kisah lainnya mengenai Amon dicatat dalam buku Sejarah Raja-raja Yehuda.

²⁶He was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza: and Josiah his son reigned in his place.

²⁶Amon dikuburkan di kuburan di taman Uza. Yosia anaknya menjadi raja menggantikan dia.
