- 所以耶和华使亚述王的将帅来攻击他们,用铙钩钩住玛拿西,用铜链锁住他,带到巴比伦去。
- 他在急难的时候,就恳求耶和华他的神,且在他列祖的神面前极其自卑。
- 他祈祷耶和华,耶和华就允准他的祈求,垂听他的祷告,使他归回耶路撒冷,仍坐国位。玛拿西这才知道惟独耶和华是神。
- 此后,玛拿西在大卫城外,从谷内基训西边直到鱼门口,建筑城墙,环绕俄斐勒,这墙筑得甚高。又在犹大各坚固城内设立勇敢的军长。
- 并除掉外邦人的神像与耶和华殿中的偶像,又将他在耶和华殿的山上和耶路撒冷所筑的各坛都拆毁抛在城外。

- 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.
- Now after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah.
- And he took away the strange gods, and the idol out of the house of the LORD, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of the LORD, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.
