14:033:006 And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the
           valley of the son of Hinnom:  also he observed times, and used
           enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar
           spirit, and with wizards:  he wrought much evil in the sight of
           the lord, to provoke him to anger.

14:033:007 And he set a carved image, the idol which he had made, in the
           house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon
           his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen
           before all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever: 

14:033:008 Neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from out of
           the land which I have appointed for your fathers; so that they
           will take heed to do all that I have commanded them, according
           to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinances by the
           hand of Moses.

14:033:009 So Manasseh made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to
           err, and to do worse than the heathen, whom the lord had
           destroyed before the children of Israel.

14:033:010 And the lord spake to Manasseh, and to his people:  but they
           would not hearken.

14:033:011 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.

14:033:012 And when he was in affliction, he besought the lord his God,
           and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers,

14:033:013 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.

14:033:014 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.

14:033:015 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.

14:033:016 And he repaired the altar of the lord, and sacrificed thereon
           peace offerings and thank offerings, and commanded Judah to
           serve the lord God of Israel.

14:033:017 Nevertheless the people did sacrifice still in the high
           places, yet unto the lord their God only.
