LXX	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 ων δεκα δυο ετων μανασσης εν τω βασιλευσαι αυτον και πεντηκοντα πεντε ετη εβασιλευσεν εν ιερουσαλημ	1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
2 και εποιησεν το πονηρον εναντιον κυριου απο παντων των βδελυγματων των εθνων ους εξωλεθρευσεν κυριος απο προσωπου των υιων ισραηλ	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.
3 και επεστρεψεν και ωκοδομησεν τα υψηλα α κατεσπασεν εζεκιας ο πατηρ αυτου και εστησεν στηλας ταις βααλιμ και εποιησεν αλση και προσεκυνησεν παση τη στρατια του ουρανου και εδουλευσεν αυτοις	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.
4 και ωκοδομησεν θυσιαστηρια εν οικω κυριου ου ειπεν κυριος εν ιερουσαλημ εσται το ονομα μου εις τον αιωνα	4 Also, he built altars in the house of the Lord, about which the Lord had said, “My name shall be in Jerusalem forever.”
5 και ωκοδομησεν θυσιαστηρια παση τη στρατια του ουρανου εν ταις δυσιν αυλαις οικου κυριου	5 But he built these for the entire army of heaven, in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
6 και αυτος διηγαγεν τα τεκνα αυτου εν πυρι εν γαι-βαναι-εννομ και εκληδονιζετο και οιωνιζετο και εφαρμακευετο και εποιησεν εγγαστριμυθους και επαοιδους επληθυνεν του ποιησαι το πονηρον εναντιον κυριου του παροργισαι αυτον	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.
7 και εθηκεν το γλυπτον και το χωνευτον εικονα ην εποιησεν εν οικω θεου ου ειπεν ο θεος προς δαυιδ και προς σαλωμων υιον αυτου εν τω οικω τουτω και ιερουσαλημ ην εξελεξαμην εκ πασων φυλων ισραηλ θησω το ονομα μου εις τον αιωνα	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.
8 και ου προσθησω σαλευσαι τον ποδα ισραηλ απο της γης ης εδωκα τοις πατρασιν αυτων πλην εαν φυλασσωνται του ποιησαι παντα α ενετειλαμην αυτοις κατα παντα τον νομον και τα προσταγματα και τα κριματα εν χειρι μωυση	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.”
9 και επλανησεν μανασσης τον ιουδαν και τους κατοικουντας εν ιερουσαλημ του ποιησαι το πονηρον υπερ παντα τα εθνη α εξηρεν κυριος απο προσωπου υιων ισραηλ	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.
10 και ελαλησεν κυριος επι μανασση και επι τον λαον αυτου και ουκ επηκουσαν	10 And the Lord spoke to him and to his people, but they were not willing to pay attention.
11 και ηγαγεν κυριος επ' αυτους τους αρχοντας της δυναμεως βασιλεως ασσουρ και κατελαβον τον μανασση εν δεσμοις και εδησαν αυτον εν πεδαις και ηγαγον εις βαβυλωνα	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.
12 και ως εθλιβη εζητησεν το προσωπον κυριου του θεου αυτου και εταπεινωθη σφοδρα απο προσωπου θεου των πατερων αυτου	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.
13 και προσηυξατο προς αυτον και επηκουσεν αυτου και επηκουσεν της βοης αυτου και επεστρεψεν αυτον εις ιερουσαλημ επι την βασιλειαν αυτου και εγνω μανασσης οτι κυριος αυτος εστιν ο θεος	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.
14 και μετα ταυτα ωκοδομησεν τειχος εξω της πολεως δαυιδ απο λιβος κατα γιων εν τω χειμαρρω και εκπορευομενων την πυλην την κυκλοθεν και εις το οφλα και υψωσεν σφοδρα και κατεστησεν αρχοντας της δυναμεως εν πασαις ταις πολεσιν ταις τειχηρεσιν εν ιουδα	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.
15 και περιειλεν τους θεους τους αλλοτριους και το γλυπτον εξ οικου κυριου και παντα τα θυσιαστηρια α ωκοδομησεν εν ορει οικου κυριου και εν ιερουσαλημ και εξω της πολεως	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.
16 και κατωρθωσεν το θυσιαστηριον κυριου και εθυσιασεν επ' αυτο θυσιαν σωτηριου και αινεσεως και ειπεν τω ιουδα του δουλευειν κυριω θεω ισραηλ	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.
17 πλην ο λαος ετι επι των υψηλων πλην κυριος ο θεος αυτων	17 Yet still the people were immolating on the high places, to the Lord their God.
18 και τα λοιπα των λογων μανασση και η προσευχη αυτου η προς τον θεον και λογοι των ορωντων λαλουντων προς αυτον επ' ονοματι κυριου θεου ισραηλ ιδου επι λογων	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.
19 προσευχης αυτου και ως επηκουσεν αυτου και πασαι αι αμαρτιαι αυτου και αι αποστασεις αυτου και οι τοποι εφ' οις ωκοδομησεν τα υψηλα και εστησεν εκει αλση και γλυπτα προ του επιστρεψαι ιδου γεγραπται επι των λογων των ορωντων	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.
20 και εκοιμηθη μανασσης μετα των πατερων αυτου και εθαψαν αυτον εν παραδεισω οικου αυτου και εβασιλευσεν αντ' αυτου αμων υιος αυτου	20 Then Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. And his son, Amon, reigned in his place.
21 ων εικοσι και δυο ετων αμων εν τω βασιλευειν αυτον και δυο ετη εβασιλευσεν εν ιερουσαλημ	21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for two years in Jerusalem.
22 και εποιησεν το πονηρον ενωπιον κυριου ως εποιησεν μανασσης ο πατηρ αυτου και πασιν τοις ειδωλοις οις εποιησεν μανασσης ο πατηρ αυτου εθυεν αμων και εδουλευσεν αυτοις	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.
23 και ουκ εταπεινωθη εναντιον κυριου ως εταπεινωθη μανασσης ο πατηρ αυτου οτι υιος αυτου αμων επληθυνεν πλημμελειαν	23 But he did not turn his face to the Lord, as his father Manasseh had turned himself. And he sinned much more grievously.
24 και επεθεντο αυτω οι παιδες αυτου και επαταξαν αυτον εν οικω αυτου	24 And when his servants had conspired against him, they killed him in his own house.
25 και επαταξεν ο λαος της γης τους επιθεμενους επι τον βασιλεα αμων και εβασιλευσεν ο λαος της γης τον ιωσιαν υιον αυτου αντ' αυτου	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.
