*
So Manasseh madeJudah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to err ,
and to do worse than the heathen ,
whom the LORD had destroyed before the children of Israel Yisra #
el #.
*
And the LORD spake to Manasseh ,
and to his people :
but they would not hearken .
*
Wherefore the LORD brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria ,
which took Manasseh among the thorns ,
and bound him with fetters ,
and carried him to Babylon .
*
And when he was in affliction ,
he besought the LORD his God ,
and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers ,
*
And prayed unto him :
and he was intreated of him ,
and heard his supplication ,
and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom .
Then Manasseh knew that the LORD he was God .
