Kings IV 21
1 Manasses [was] twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Apsiba.
Duodecim annorum erat Manasses cum regnare cœpisset, et quinquaginta quinque annis regnavit in Ierusalem: nomen matris eius Haphsiba.
2 And he did that which was evil in the eyes of the Lord, according to the abominations of the nations which the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel.
Fecitque malum in conspectu Domini, iuxta idola gentium, quas delevit Dominus a facie filiorum Israel.
3 And he built again the high places, which Ezekias his father [had] demolished; and set up an altar to Baal, and made groves as Achaab king of Israel [made them]; and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
Conversusque est, et ædificavit excelsa, quæ dissipaverat Ezechias pater eius: et erexit aras Baal, et fecit lucos sicut fecerat Achab rex Israel, et adoravit omnem militiam cæli, et coluit eam.
4 And he built an altar in the house of the Lord, whereas he had said, In Jerusalem I will place my name.
Extruxitque aras in domo Domini, de qua dixit Dominus: In Ierusalem ponam nomen meum.
5 And he built an altar to all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
Et extruxit altaria universæ militiæ cæli in duobus atriis templi Domini.
6 And he caused his sons to pass through the fire, and used divination and auspices, and made groves, and multiplied wizards, so as to do that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him to anger.
Et traduxit filium suum per ignem: et ariolatus est, et observavit auguria, et fecit pythones, et aruspices multiplicavit, ut faceret malum coram Domino, et irritaret eum.
7 And he set up the graven image of the grove in the house of which the Lord 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 even place my name for ever.
Posuit quoque idolum luci, quem fecerat in templo Domini, super quod locutus est Dominus ad David, et ad Salomonem filium eius: In templo hoc, et in Ierusalem, quam elegi de cunctis tribubus Israel, ponam nomen meum in sempiternum.
8 And I will not again remove the foot of Israel from the land which I gave to their fathers, [even of those] who shall keep all that I commanded, according to all the commandments which my servant Moses commanded them.
Et ultra non faciam commoveri pedem Israel de terra, quam dedi patribus eorum: si tamen custodierint opere omnia quæ præcepi eis, et universam legem, quam mandavit eis servus meus Moyses.
9 But they listened not; and Manasses led them astray to do evil in the sight of the Lord, beyond the nations whom the Lord utterly destroyed from before the children of Israel.
Illi vero non audierunt: sed seducti sunt a Manasse, ut facerent malum super gentes, quas contrivit Dominus a facie filiorum Israel.
10 And the Lord spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus in manu servorum suorum Prophetarum, dicens:
11 Forasmuch as Manasses the king of Juda has wrought all these evil abominations, beyond all that the Amorite did, who lived before [him], and has led Juda also into sin by their idols,
Quia fecit Manasses rex Iuda abominationes istas pessimas, super omnia quæ fecerunt Amorrhæi ante eum, et peccare fecit etiam Iudam in immunditiis suis:
12 [it shall] not [be] so. Thus says the Lord God of Israel, Behold, I bring calamities upon Jerusalem and Juda, so that both the ears of every one that hears shall tingle.
propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israel: Ecce ego inducam mala super Ierusalem et Iudam: ut quicumque audierit, tinniant ambæ aures eius.
13 And I will stretch out over Jerusalem the measure of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Achaab: and I will wipe Jerusalem as a jar is wiped, and turned upside down in the wiping.
Et extendam super Ierusalem funiculum Samariæ, et pondus domus Achab: et delebo Ierusalem, sicut deleri solent tabulæ: et delens vertam, et ducam crebrius stylum super faciem eius.
14 And I will reject the remnant of my inheritance, and will deliver them into the hands of their enemies; and they shall be for a plunder and for a spoil to all their enemies:
Dimittam vero reliquias hereditatis meæ, et tradam eas in manus inimicorum eius: eruntque in vastitatem, et in rapinam cunctis adversariis suis:
15 forasmuch as they have done wickedly in my sight, and have provoked me from the day that I brought out their fathers out of Egypt, even until this day.
eo quod fecerint malum coram me, et perseveraverint irritantes me, ex die qua egressi sunt patres eorum ex Ægypto, usque ad hanc diem.
16 Moreover Manasses shed very much innocent blood, until he filled Jerusalem [with it] from one end to the other, beside his sins with which he caused Juda to sin, in doing evil in the eyes of the Lord.
Insuper et sanguinem innoxium fudit Manasses multum nimis, donec impleret Ierusalem usque ad os: absque peccatis suis, quibus peccare fecit Iudam, ut faceret malum coram Domino.
17 And the rest of the acts of Manasses, and all that he did, and his sin which he sinned, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
Reliqua autem sermonum Manasse, ut universa quæ fecit, et peccatum eius, quod peccavit, nonne hæc scripta sunt in Libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda?
18 And Manasses slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his house, [even] in the garden of Oza: and Amos his son reigned in his stead.
Dormivitque Manasses cum patribus suis, et sepultus est in horto domus suæ, in horto Oza: et regnavit Amon filius eius pro eo.
19 Twenty and two years old [was] Amos when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Mesollam, daughter of Arus of Jeteba.
Viginti duorum annorum erat Amon cum regnare cœpisset: duobus quoque annis regnavit in Ierusalem. Nomen matris eius Messalemeth filia Harus de Ieteba.
20 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as Manasses his father did.
Fecitque malum in conspectu Domini, sicut fecerat Manasses pater eius.
21 And he walked in all the way in which his father walked, and served the idols which his father served, and worshipped them.
Et ambulavit in omni via, per quam ambulaverat pater eius: servivitque immunditiis, quibus servierat pater eius, et adoravit eas,
22 And he forsook the Lord God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.
et dereliquit Dominum Deum patrum suorum, et non ambulavit in via Domini.
23 And the servants of Amos conspired against him, and killed the king in his house.
Tetenderuntque ei insidias servi sui, et interfecerunt regem in domo sua.
24 And the people of the land killed all that had conspired against king Amos; and the people of the land made Josias king in his room.
Percussit autem populus terræ omnes, qui coniuraverant contra regem Amon: et constituerunt sibi regem Iosiam filium eius pro eo.
25 And the rest of the acts of Amos, [even] all that he did, behold, [are] not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
Reliqua autem sermonum Amon quæ fecit, nonne hæc scripta sunt in Libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda?
26 And they buried him in his tomb in the garden of Oza: and Josias his son reigned in his stead.
Sepelieruntque eum in sepulchro suo, in horto Oza: et regnavit Iosias filius eius pro eo.
