2 Chronicles 33

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	BIBBIA VOLGARE
1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for fifty-five years in Jerusalem.	1 E quando incominciò a regnare, Manasse era di XII anni; e LV anni regnò in Ierusalem.
2 But he did evil before the Lord, in accord with all the abominations of the nations which the Lord overturned before the sons of Israel.	2 E fece male nel cospetto del Signore, secondo (tutte) le abominazioni delle genti le quali il Signore dissipoe dinanzi a (tutti) i figliuoli d' Israel.
3 And turning away, he repaired the high places, which had been demolished by his father, Hezekiah. And he constructed altars to the Baals, and made sacred groves. And he adored the entire army of heaven, and he served them.	3 E convertendosi restaurò i luoghi alti, i quali avea dissipati il suo padre Ezechia; e fece altari a Baalim, e fece boschi, e adoroe tutta la milizia del cielo, e coltivolla.
4 Also, he built altars in the house of the Lord, about which the Lord had said, “My name shall be in Jerusalem forever.”	4 Ed edificò altari nella casa di Dio, della quale avea detto il Signore: in Ierusalem sarà il nome mio in eterno.
5 But he built these for the entire army of heaven, in the two courts of the house of the Lord.	5 Ed edificogli a tutto l'esercito del cielo in due palagi della casa di Dio.
6 And he caused his sons to pass through fire in the Valley of the son of Hinnom. He observed dreams, followed divinations, served the occult arts, had with him magicians and enchanters, and worked many evils before the Lord, so that he provoked him.	6 E fece passare i suoi figliuoli per lo fuoco nella valle di Benennom; attendea a' sogni, seguitava le divinazioni, e servia all' arti malefiche, e avea seco maghi (e divinatori) e incantatori; e molti mali operò nel cospetto di Dio per provocarlo.
7 Also, he set up a graven image and molten statue in the house of God, about which God said to David, and to his son Solomon: “In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen from all the tribes of Israel, I will place my name forever.	7 E nella casa di Dio puose (uno segnale cioè) una imagine fonduta, della quale cosa favellò Iddio a David e al suo figliuolo [Salomone], dicendo: in questa casa e in Ierusalem, la quale io hoe eletta di tutte le tribù d'Israel, porrò il mio nome in sempiterno.
8 And I will not cause the foot of Israel to be moved from the land which I delivered to their fathers. Yet this is so, only if they will take care to do what I have instructed them, by the hand of Moses, with the entire law and the ceremonies and the judgments.”	8 E non farò muovere il piede ad Israel della terra la quale io diedi a' padri loro, in questo modo se egli faranno quelle cose le quali io hoe comandate loro, tutta la legge e le osservanze e li giudicii (li quali io comandai) per le mani di Moisè.
9 And so Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did evil, more so than all the nations which the Lord had overturned before the face of the sons of Israel.	9 Onde che Manasse ingannò Giuda e gli abitatori di Ierusalem, che facessero male sopra tutte le genti le quali il Signore avea disperse dinanzi ai figliuoli d' Israel.
10 And the Lord spoke to him and to his people, but they were not willing to pay attention.	10 E favelloe il Signore a lui e al popolo, e non volsero attendere.
11 Therefore, he led over them the leaders of the army of the king of the Assyrians. And they captured Manasseh, and they led him, bound with chains and fetters, to Babylon.	11 E però indusse sopra di loro i principi dello esercito del re degli Assirii; e presero Manasse, e legato con catene e con ceppi il menarono in Babilonia.
12 And after this, being in great anguish, he prayed to the Lord his God. And he did penance greatly before the God of his fathers.	12 Il quale, poi che fu costretto, orò al suo Signore Iddio; e pentissi molto nel cospetto del Signore Iddio de' padri suoi.
13 And he petitioned and begged him intently. And he heeded his prayer, and led him back to Jerusalem, into his kingdom. And Manasseh realized that the Lord himself was God.	13 E pregollo molto attentamente; ed esaudio la sua orazione, e ridusselo in Ierusalem nel regno suo, e conobbe Manasse che il Signore lui è Iddio.
14 After these things, he built a wall outside the City of David, to the west of Gihon, at the steep valley, from the entrance to the fish gate, circling around as far as Ophel. And he raised it up greatly. And he appointed leaders of the army in all the fortified cities of Judah.	14 Dopo queste cose edificò il muro di fuori della città di David, alle parti dell' occidente di Gion nella valle, dall' entrata della porta de' pesci dintorno insino ad Ofel, e alzollo molto; e puose principi dello esercito in tutte le cittadi fornite di Giuda.
15 And he took away the foreign gods, and the idol from the house of the Lord, and also the altars which he had made on the mount of the house of the Lord and in Jerusalem. And he cast all these things outside the city.	15 E tolse via gli dii altrui e le statue della casa di Dio, e gli altari i quali avea fatti ne' monti della casa di Dio e in Ierusalem; e tutti gli gittò fuori della città.
16 Then he repaired the altar of the Lord, and he immolated upon it victims, and peace offerings, with praise. And he instructed Judah to serve the Lord, the God of Israel.	16 E rifece l' altare del Signore, e offerse sopra quello vittime, pacifiche (ostie) e laude; e comandò a Giuda, che servisse al suo Signore Iddio d'Israel.
17 Yet still the people were immolating on the high places, to the Lord their God.	17 Ma pure il popolo sacrificava ne' luoghi alti al suo Signore Iddio.
18 But the rest of the deeds of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and also the words of the seers who were speaking to him in the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, are contained in the words of the kings of Israel.	18 Tutte l'altre cose di Manasse, e la sua osservanza al Dio suo, e le parole de' profeti li quali favellavano a lui nel nome del Signore d' Israel, si contiene nei sermoni de' re d'Israel.
19 Also, his prayer and its heeding, and all his sins and contempt, and the sites on which he built high places and made sacred groves and statues, before he repented, have been written in the words of Hozai.	19 E la sua orazione e la esaudizione, e tutti i peccati e dispregiamenti, e i luoghi alti i quali edificoe (e l'altezze), e fece boschi e le statue prima che facesse penitenza, sono scritte nei sermoni di Ozai.
20 Then Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. And his son, Amon, reigned in his place.	20 E dormio Manasse coi padri suoi, e seppellironlo nella casa sua; e regnò per lui il suo figliuolo Amon.
21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for two years in Jerusalem.	21 E Amon, quando incominciò a regnare, era di XXII anni; e due anni regnò in Ierusalem.
22 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, just as his father Manasseh had done. And he immolated to all the idols that Manasseh had fabricated, and he served them.	22 E fece male nel cospetto di Dio, sì come avea fatto Manasse suo padre
23 But he did not turn his face to the Lord, as his father Manasseh had turned himself. And he sinned much more grievously.	23 E non ebbe riverenza alla faccia di Dio, sì come ebbe riverenza Manasse suo padre; e in molte maggiori cose falloe.
24 And when his servants had conspired against him, they killed him in his own house.	24 E congiurati contra lui, i servi suoi ucciserlo nella casa sua.
25 But the rest of the multitude of the people, having slain those who had struck down Amon, appointed his son, Josiah, as king in his place.	25 E tutta l'altra moltitudine del popolo uccisono coloro i quali aveano morto Amon, e fecero re per lui Iosia suo figliuolo.
