1M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] [was] twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and five years in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]: 2But did [that which was] evil in the sight of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), like unto the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) had cast out before the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]. 3For he built again the high places which Hizkiyahu [Yehovah is my strength] his father had broken down, and he reared up altars for Ba’alim [lords (false gods)], and made groves, and worshipped all the army of heaven, and served them. 4Also he built altars in the house of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), whereof the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) had said, In Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] shall my name be forever. 5And he built altars for all the army of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate). 6And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom [Lamentation]: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), to provoke him to anger. 7And he set a carved image, the idol which he had made, in the house of God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], of which God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] had said to David [beloved] and to Shlomo (Solomon) [peace] his son, In this house, and in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], which I have chosen before all the tribes of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], will I put my name forever: 8Neither will I any more remove the foot of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] from out of the land which I have appointed for your fathers; so that they will take heed to do all that I have commanded them, according to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinances by the hand of Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters]. 9So M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] made Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] and the inhabitants of Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] to err, [and] to do worse than the heathen, whom the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) had destroyed before the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God].

10And the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) spoke to M’nasheh [Causing to Forget], and to his people: but they would not hearken. 11For what reason the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Ashur [the level plain] (the land of the sons of Shem [name] (name, renown (great reputation; being well-known))), which took M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] among the thorns, and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Bavel (to jumble, or a confused medley of sounds; confusion; gate of the deity) (Babylon) [confusion]. 12And when he was in affliction, he besought the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) his God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and humbled himself greatly before the God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of his fathers, 13And prayed unto him: and he was intreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] into his kingdom. Then M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] knew that the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) he [was] God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered].

14Now after this he built a wall without the city of David [beloved], on the west side of Gikhon (Bursting Forth), in the valley, even to the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about ‘Ofel [hill], and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised]. 15And he took away the strange gods, and the idol out of the house of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], and cast [them] out of the city. 16And he repaired the altar of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and sacrificed thereon peace offerings and thank offerings, and commanded Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] to serve the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]. 17Nevertheless the people did sacrifice still in the high places, [yet] unto the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) their God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] only.

18Now the rest of the acts of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget], and his prayer unto his God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], behold, they [are written] in the book of the kings of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]. 19His prayer also, and [how God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]] was intreated of him, and all his sin, and his trespass, and the places wherein he built high places, and set up groves and graven images, before he was humbled: behold, they [are] written among the sayings of the seers. 20So M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house: and ‘Amon [master workman] his son reigned in his stead.

21‘Amon [master workman] [was] two and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned two years in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]. 22But he did [that which was] evil in the sight of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), as did M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] his father: for ‘Amon [master workman] sacrificed unto all the carved images which M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] his father had made, and served them; 23And humbled not himself before the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), as M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] his father had humbled himself; but ‘Amon [master workman] trespassed more and more. 24And his servants conspired against him, and killed him in his own house. 25But the people of the land killed all them that had conspired against king ‘Amon [master workman]; and the people of the land made Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] his son king in his stead.
