א
בֶּן-שְׁתֵּים עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁנָה, מְנַשֶּׁה בְמָלְכוֹ, וַחֲמִשִּׁים וְחָמֵשׁ שָׁנָה, מָלַךְ בִּירוּשָׁלִָם; וְשֵׁם אִמּוֹ, חֶפְצִי-בָהּ.
|
1
Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned five and fifty years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Hephzi-bah.
|
|
ב
וַיַּעַשׂ הָרַע, בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה--כְּתוֹעֲבֹת, הַגּוֹיִם, אֲשֶׁר הוֹרִישׁ יְהוָה, מִפְּנֵי בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל.
|
2
And he did that which was evil in the sight of YAHOWAH, after the abominations of the nations, whom YAHOWAH cast out before the children of Yisrael.
|
|
ג
וַיָּשָׁב, וַיִּבֶן אֶת-הַבָּמוֹת, אֲשֶׁר אִבַּד, חִזְקִיָּהוּ אָבִיו; וַיָּקֶם מִזְבְּחֹת לַבַּעַל, וַיַּעַשׂ אֲשֵׁרָה כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה אַחְאָב מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל, וַיִּשְׁתַּחוּ לְכָל-צְבָא הַשָּׁמַיִם, וַיַּעֲבֹד אֹתָם.
|
3
For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for the falsegod, and made an a falsegod, as did Ahab king of Yisrael, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
|
|
ד
וּבָנָה מִזְבְּחֹת, בְּבֵית יְהוָה, אֲשֶׁר אָמַר יְהוָה, בִּירוּשָׁלִַם אָשִׂים אֶת-שְׁמִי.
|
4
And he built altars in the house of YAHOWAH, whereof YAHOWAH said: 'In Jerusalem will I put My name.'
|
|
ה
וַיִּבֶן מִזְבְּחוֹת, לְכָל-צְבָא הַשָּׁמָיִם, בִּשְׁתֵּי, חַצְרוֹת בֵּית-יְהוָה.
|
5
And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of YAHOWAH.
|
|
ו
וְהֶעֱבִיר אֶת-בְּנוֹ, בָּאֵשׁ, וְעוֹנֵן וְנִחֵשׁ, וְעָשָׂה אוֹב וְיִדְּעֹנִים: הִרְבָּה, לַעֲשׂוֹת הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה--לְהַכְעִיס.
|
6
And he made his son to pass through the fire, and practised soothsaying, and used enchantments, and appointed them that divined by a ghost or a familiar spirit: he wrought much evil in the sight of YAHOWAH, to provoke Him.
|
|
ז
וַיָּשֶׂם, אֶת-פֶּסֶל הָאֲשֵׁרָה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה--בַּבַּיִת, אֲשֶׁר אָמַר יְהוָה אֶל-דָּוִד וְאֶל-שְׁלֹמֹה בְנוֹ, בַּבַּיִת הַזֶּה וּבִירוּשָׁלִַם אֲשֶׁר בָּחַרְתִּי מִכֹּל שִׁבְטֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל, אָשִׂים אֶת-שְׁמִי לְעוֹלָם.
|
7
And he set the graven image of a falsegod, that he had made, in the house of which YAHOWAH said to David and to Solomon his son: 'In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Yisrael, will I put My name for ever;
|
|
ח
וְלֹא אֹסִיף, לְהָנִיד רֶגֶל יִשְׂרָאֵל, מִן-הָאֲדָמָה, אֲשֶׁר נָתַתִּי לַאֲבוֹתָם: רַק אִם-יִשְׁמְרוּ לַעֲשׂוֹת, כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר צִוִּיתִים, וּלְכָל-הַתּוֹרָה, אֲשֶׁר-צִוָּה אֹתָם עַבְדִּי מֹשֶׁה.
|
8
neither will I cause the feet of Yisrael to wander any more out of the land which I gave their fathers; if only they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that My servant Moses commanded them.'
|
|
ט
וְלֹא, שָׁמֵעוּ; וַיַּתְעֵם מְנַשֶּׁה, לַעֲשׂוֹת אֶת-הָרָע, מִן-הַגּוֹיִם, אֲשֶׁר הִשְׁמִיד יְהוָה מִפְּנֵי בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל.
|
9
But they hearkened not; and Manasseh seduced them to do that which is evil more than did the nations, whom YAHOWAH destroyed before the children of Yisrael.
|
|
י
וַיְדַבֵּר יְהוָה בְּיַד-עֲבָדָיו הַנְּבִיאִים, לֵאמֹר.
|
10
And YAHOWAH spoke by His servants the prophets, saying:
|
|
יא
יַעַן אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה מְנַשֶּׁה מֶלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה, הַתֹּעֵבוֹת הָאֵלֶּה--הֵרַע, מִכֹּל אֲשֶׁר-עָשׂוּ הָאֱמֹרִי אֲשֶׁר לְפָנָיו; וַיַּחֲטִא גַם-אֶת-יְהוּדָה, בְּגִלּוּלָיו. {ס}
|
11
'Because Manasseh king of Judah hath done these abominations, and hath done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, that were before him, and hath made Judah also to sin with his idols;
{S}
|
|
יב
לָכֵן, כֹּה-אָמַר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל, הִנְנִי מֵבִיא רָעָה, עַל-יְרוּשָׁלִַם וִיהוּדָה: אֲשֶׁר, כָּל-שמעיו (שֹׁמְעָהּ)--תִּצַּלְנָה, שְׁתֵּי אָזְנָיו.
|
12
therefore thus saith YAHOWAH, the Eloheem of Yisrael: Behold, I bring such evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle.
|
|
יג
וְנָטִיתִי עַל-יְרוּשָׁלִַם, אֵת קָו שֹׁמְרוֹן, וְאֶת-מִשְׁקֹלֶת, בֵּית אַחְאָב; וּמָחִיתִי אֶת-יְרוּשָׁלִַם כַּאֲשֶׁר-יִמְחֶה אֶת-הַצַּלַּחַת, מָחָה, וְהָפַךְ, עַל-פָּנֶיהָ.
|
13
And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.
|
|
יד
וְנָטַשְׁתִּי, אֵת שְׁאֵרִית נַחֲלָתִי, וּנְתַתִּים, בְּיַד אֹיְבֵיהֶם; וְהָיוּ לְבַז וְלִמְשִׁסָּה, לְכָל-אֹיְבֵיהֶם.
|
14
And I will cast off the remnant of Mine inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies; and they shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies;
|
|
טו
יַעַן, אֲשֶׁר עָשׂוּ אֶת-הָרַע בְּעֵינַי, וַיִּהְיוּ מַכְעִסִים, אֹתִי--מִן-הַיּוֹם, אֲשֶׁר יָצְאוּ אֲבוֹתָם מִמִּצְרַיִם, וְעַד, הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה.
|
15
because they have done that which is evil in My sight, and have provoked Me, since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even unto this day.'
|
|
טז
וְגַם דָּם נָקִי שָׁפַךְ מְנַשֶּׁה, הַרְבֵּה מְאֹד, עַד אֲשֶׁר-מִלֵּא אֶת-יְרוּשָׁלִַם, פֶּה לָפֶה--לְבַד מֵחַטָּאתוֹ אֲשֶׁר הֶחֱטִיא אֶת-יְהוּדָה, לַעֲשׂוֹת הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה.
|
16
Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, till he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; beside his sin wherewith he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight of YAHOWAH.
|
|
יז
וְיֶתֶר דִּבְרֵי מְנַשֶּׁה וְכָל-אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה, וְחַטָּאתוֹ אֲשֶׁר חָטָא: הֲלֹא-הֵם כְּתוּבִים, עַל-סֵפֶר דִּבְרֵי הַיָּמִים--לְמַלְכֵי יְהוּדָה.
|
17
Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
|
|
יח
וַיִּשְׁכַּב מְנַשֶּׁה עִם-אֲבֹתָיו, וַיִּקָּבֵר בְּגַן-בֵּיתוֹ בְּגַן-עֻזָּא; וַיִּמְלֹךְ אָמוֹן בְּנוֹ, תַּחְתָּיו. {פ}
|
18
And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza; and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
{P}
|
|
יט
בֶּן-עֶשְׂרִים וּשְׁתַּיִם שָׁנָה, אָמוֹן בְּמָלְכוֹ, וּשְׁתַּיִם שָׁנִים, מָלַךְ בִּירוּשָׁלִָם; וְשֵׁם אִמּוֹ, מְשֻׁלֶּמֶת בַּת-חָרוּץ מִן-יָטְבָה.
|
19
Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
|
|
כ
וַיַּעַשׂ הָרַע, בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה, כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה, מְנַשֶּׁה אָבִיו.
|
20
And he did that which was evil in the sight of YAHOWAH, as did Manasseh his father.
|
|
כא
וַיֵּלֶךְ, בְּכָל-הַדֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר-הָלַךְ אָבִיו; וַיַּעֲבֹד, אֶת-הַגִּלֻּלִים אֲשֶׁר עָבַד אָבִיו, וַיִּשְׁתַּחוּ, לָהֶם.
|
21
And he walked in all the way that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshipped them.
|
|
כב
וַיַּעֲזֹב, אֶת-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי אֲבֹתָיו; וְלֹא הָלַךְ, בְּדֶרֶךְ יְהוָה.
|
22
And he forsook YAHOWAH, the Eloheem of his fathers, and walked not in the way of YAHOWAH.
|
|
כג
וַיִּקְשְׁרוּ עַבְדֵי-אָמוֹן, עָלָיו; וַיָּמִיתוּ אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ, בְּבֵיתוֹ.
|
23
And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house.
|
|
כד
וַיַּךְ, עַם-הָאָרֶץ, אֵת כָּל-הַקֹּשְׁרִים, עַל-הַמֶּלֶךְ אָמוֹן; וַיַּמְלִיכוּ עַם-הָאָרֶץ אֶת-יֹאשִׁיָּהוּ בְנוֹ, תַּחְתָּיו.
|
24
But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
|
|
כה
וְיֶתֶר דִּבְרֵי אָמוֹן, אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה: הֲלֹא-הֵם כְּתוּבִים, עַל-סֵפֶר דִּבְרֵי הַיָּמִים--לְמַלְכֵי יְהוּדָה.
|
25
Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
|
|
כו
וַיִּקְבֹּר אֹתוֹ בִּקְבֻרָתוֹ, בְּגַן-עֻזָּא; וַיִּמְלֹךְ יֹאשִׁיָּהוּ בְנוֹ, תַּחְתָּיו. {פ}
|
26
And he was buried in his sepulchre in the garden of Uzza; and Josiah his son reigned in his stead.
{P}
