2 Kings (4 Kings) 21

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.

ΥΙΟΣ δώδεκα ἐτῶν Μανασσῆς ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτὸν καὶ πεντήκοντα καὶ πέντε ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν ῾Ιερουσαλήμ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ ᾿Οψιβά.

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.

καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου κατὰ τὰ βδελύγματα τῶν ἐθνῶν, ὧν ἐξῇρε Κύριος ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν υἱῶν ᾿Ισραήλ,

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.

καὶ ἐπέστρεψε καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε τὰ ὑψηλά, ἃ κατέσπασεν ᾿Εζεκίας ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀνέστησε θυσιαστήριον τῇ Βάαλ καὶ ἐποίησε τὰ ἄλση, καθὼς ἐποίησε ᾿Αχαὰβ βασιλεὺς ᾿Ισραήλ, καὶ προσεκύνησε πάσῃ τῇ δυνάμει τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἐδούλευσεν αὐτοῖς.

And he built an altar in the house of the Lord, whereas he had said, In Jerusalem I will place my name.

καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε θυσιαστήριον ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου, ὡς εἶπεν· ἐν ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ θήσω τὸ ὄνομά μου,

And he built an altar to all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.

καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε θυσιαστήριον πάσῃ τῇ δυνάμει τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐν ταῖς δυσὶν αὐλαῖς οἴκου Κυρίου

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.

καὶ διῆγε τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐν πυρὶ καὶ ἐκληδονίζετο καὶ οἰωνίζετο καὶ ἐποίησε τεμένη καὶ γνώστας ἐπλήθυνε τοῦ ποιεῖν τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου παροργίσαι αὐτόν.

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.

καὶ ἔθηκε τὸ γλυπτὸν τοῦ ἄλσους ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ, ᾧ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Δαυὶδ καὶ πρὸς Σαλωμὼν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ· ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τούτῳ καὶ ἐν ῾Ιερουσαλήμ, ᾗ ἐξελεξάμην ἐκ πασῶν φυλῶν τοῦ ᾿Ισραήλ, καὶ θήσω τὸ ὄνομά μου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα

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.

καὶ οὐ προσθήσω τοῦ σαλεῦσαι τὸν πόδα ᾿Ισραὴλ ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς, ἧς ἔδωκα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν, οἵτινες φυλάξουσι πάντα ὅσα ἐνετειλάμην κατὰ πᾶσαν τὴν ἐντολήν, ἣν ἐνετείλατο αὐτοῖς ὁ δοῦλός μου Μωυσῆς.

But they hearkened 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.

καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσαν, καὶ ἐπλάνησεν αὐτοὺς Μανασσῆς τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου ὑπὲρ τὰ ἔθνη, ἃ ἠφάνισε Κύριος ἐκ προσώπου υἱῶν ᾿Ισραήλ.

And the Lord spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,

καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος ἐν χειρὶ δούλων αὐτοῦ τῶν προφητῶν λέγων·

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,

ἀνθ᾿ ὧν ὅσα ἐποίησε Μανασσῆς ὁ βασιλεὺς ᾿Ιούδα τὰ βδελύγματα ταῦτα τὰ πονηρὰ ἀπὸ πάντων, ὧν ἐποίησεν ὁ ᾿Αμορραῖος ὁ ἔμπροσθεν, καὶ ἐξήμαρτε καί γε τὸν ᾿Ιούδαν ἐν τοῖς εἰδώλοις αὐτῶν,

[it shall] not [be] so. Thus saith 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.

οὐχ οὕτως, τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ᾿Ισραήλ· ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ φέρω κακὰ ἐπὶ ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ καὶ ᾿Ιούδαν, ὥστε παντὸς ἀκούοντος ἠχήσει ἀμφότερα τὰ ὦτα αὐτοῦ,

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.

καὶ ἐκτενῶ ἐπὶ ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ τὸ μέτρον Σαμαρείας καὶ τὸ στάθμιον οἴκου ᾿Αχαάβ· καὶ ἀπαλείψω τὴν ῾Ιερουσαλήμ, καθὼς ἀπαλείφεται ὁ ἀλάβαστρος ἀπαλειφόμενος καὶ καταστρέφεται ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ,

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:

καὶ ἀπώσομαι τὸ ὑπόλειμμα τῆς κληρονομίας μου καὶ παραδώσω αὐτοὺς εἰς χεῖρας ἐχθρῶν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἔσονται εἰς διαρπαγὴν καὶ εἰς προνομὴν πᾶσι τοῖς ἐχθροῖς αὐτῶν,

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.

ἀνθ᾿ ὧν ὅσα ἐποίησαν τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς μου καὶ ἦσαν παροργίζοντές με ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας, ἧς ἐξήγαγον τοὺς πατέρας αὐτῶν ἐξ Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης.

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.

καί γε αἷμα ἀθῷον ἐξέχεε Μανασσῆς πολὺ σφόδρα, ἕως οὗ ἔπλησε τὴν ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ στόμα εἰς στόμα, πλὴν ἀπὸ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτοῦ, ὧν ἐξήμαρτε τὸν ᾿Ιούδαν τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου.

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?

καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Μανασσῆ καὶ πάντα, ὅσα ἐποίησε, καὶ ἡ ἁμαρτία αὐτοῦ, ἣν ἥμαρτεν, οὐχὶ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ τῷ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν ᾿Ιούδα;

And Manasses slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his house, [even] in the garden of Oza: and Amon his son reigned in his stead.

καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Μανασσῆς μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν τῷ κήπῳ τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ, ἐν κήπω ᾿Οζά, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ᾿Αμὼν υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.

Twenty and two years old [was] Amon when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name [was] Mesollam, daughter of Arus of Jeteba.

Υἱὸς εἴκοσι καὶ δύο ἐτῶν ᾿Αμὼν ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτὸν καὶ δύο ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν ῾Ιερουσαλήμ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ Μεσολλὰμ θυγάτηρ ᾿Αροῦς ἐξ ᾿Ιετέβα.

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as Manasses his father did.

καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου, καθὼς ἐποίησε Μανασσῆς ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ.

And he walked in all the way in which his father walked, and served the idols which his father served, and worshipped them.

καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν πάσῃ ὁδῷ, ᾗ ἐπορεύθη ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐλάτρευσε τοῖς εἰδώλοις, οἷς ἐλάτρευσεν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ, καὶ προσεκύνησεν αὐτοῖς

And he forsook the Lord God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.

καὶ ἐγκατέλιπε τὸν Κύριον Θεὸν τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδῷ Κυρίου.

And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and slew the king in his house.

καὶ συνεστράφησαν οἱ παῖδες ᾿Αμὼν πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ ἐθανάτωσαν τὸν βασιλέα ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ.

And the people of the land slew all that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josias king in his room.

καὶ ἐπάταξεν ὁ λαὸς τῆς γῆς πάντας τοὺς συστραφέντας ἐπὶ τὸν βασιλέα ᾿Αμὼν καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ὁ λαὸς τῆς γῆς τὸν ᾿Ιωσίαν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.

And the rest of the acts of Amon, [even] all that he did, behold, [are] not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?

καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων ᾿Αμών, ὅσα ἐποίησεν, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν ᾿Ιούδα;

And they buried him in his tomb in the garden of Oza: and Josias his son reigned in his stead.

καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ τάφῳ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ κήπῳ ᾿Οζά, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ᾿Ιωσίας υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
