11 “Since Manasseh (causing to forget) king of Judah (praised) has committed all these abominations, acting more wickedly than the Amorites (sayers) who preceded him, and with his idols has caused Judah to sin, 12 this is what the LORD, the God {YHWH Elohe} of Israel (he wrestles with God), says: ‘Behold, I am bringing such calamity upon Jerusalem (city of peace) and Judah (praised) that the news will reverberate in the ears of all who hear it. 13 I will stretch out over Jerusalem (city of peace) the measuring line used against Samaria (watch mountain) and the plumb line used against the house of Ahab (father's brother), and I will wipe out Jerusalem as one wipes out a bowl—wiping it and turning it upside down. 2 Kings 21:11-13, Berean Annotated Bible.
