2 Chronicles 33
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem.
1瑪拿西 登基的時候年十二歲，在 耶路撒冷 作王五十五年。
2And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, after the abominations of the nations, whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
2他行耶和華眼中看為惡的事，效法耶和華在 以色列 人面前趕出的外邦人那可憎的事，
3For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; and he reared up altars for the Baalim, and made Asheroth, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
3重新建築他父 希西家 所拆毀的邱壇，又為 巴力 築壇，做木偶，且敬拜事奉天上的萬象，
4And he built altars in the house of the LORD, whereof the LORD said: 'In Jerusalem shall My name be for ever.'
4在耶和華的殿宇中築壇－耶和華曾指着這殿說：「我的名必永遠在 耶路撒冷 。」
5And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD.
5他在耶和華殿的兩院中為天上的萬象築壇，
6He also made his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom; and he practised soothsaying, and used enchantments, and practised sorcery, and appointed them that divined by a ghost or a familiar spirit; he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke Him.
6並在 欣嫩子谷 使他的兒女經火，又觀兆，用法術，行邪術，立交鬼的和行巫術的，多行耶和華眼中看為惡的事，惹動他的怒氣，
7And he set the graven image of the idol, which he had made, in the house of God, of which God 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 put My name for ever;
7又在上帝殿內立雕刻的偶像。上帝曾對 大衛 和他兒子 所羅門 說：「我在 以色列 各支派中所選擇的 耶路撒冷 和這殿，必立我的名直到永遠。
8neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers; if only they will observe to do all that I have commanded them, even all the law and the statutes and the ordinances by the hand of Moses.'
8以色列 人若謹守遵行我藉 摩西 所吩咐他們的一切法度、律例、典章，我就不再使他們挪移離開我所賜給他們列祖之地。」
9And Manasseh made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to err, so that they did evil more than did the nations, whom the LORD destroyed before the children of Israel.
9瑪拿西 引誘 猶大 和 耶路撒冷 的居民，以致他們行惡比耶和華在 以色列 人面前所滅的列國更甚。
10And the LORD spoke to Manasseh, and to his people; but they gave no heed.
10耶和華警戒 瑪拿西 和他的百姓，他們卻是不聽。
11Wherefore the LORD brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh with hooks, and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
11所以耶和華使 亞述 王的將帥來攻擊他們，用鐃鉤鉤住 瑪拿西 ，用銅鍊鎖住他，帶到 巴比倫 去。
12And when he was in distress, he besought the LORD his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.
12他在急難的時候，就懇求耶和華－他的上帝，且在他列祖的上帝面前極其自卑。
13And he prayed unto Him; and He was entreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him back to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD He was God.
13他祈禱耶和華，耶和華就允准他的祈求，垂聽他的禱告，使他歸回 耶路撒冷 ，仍坐國位。 瑪拿西 這才知道惟獨耶和華是上帝。
14Now after this he built an outer wall to the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance at the fish gate; and he compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height; and he put captains of the army in all the fortified cities of Judah.
14此後， 瑪拿西 在 大衛城 外，從谷內 基訓 西邊直到 魚門 口，建築城牆，環繞 俄斐勒 ，這牆築得甚高；又在 猶大 各堅固城內設立勇敢的軍長；
15And 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.
15並除掉外邦人的神像與耶和華殿中的偶像，又將他在耶和華殿的山上和 耶路撒冷 所築的各壇都拆毀拋在城外；
16And he built up the altar of the LORD, and offered thereon sacrifices of peace-offerings and of thanksgiving, and commanded Judah to serve the LORD, the God of Israel.
16重修耶和華的祭壇，在壇上獻平安祭、感謝祭，吩咐 猶大 人事奉耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝。
17Nevertheless the people did sacrifice still in the high places, but only unto the LORD their God.
17百姓卻仍在邱壇上獻祭，只獻給耶和華－他們的上帝。
18Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer unto his God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, behold, they are written among the acts of the kings of Israel.
18瑪拿西 其餘的事和禱告他上帝的話，並先見奉耶和華－ 以色列 上帝的名警戒他的言語，都寫在 以色列 諸王記上。
19His prayer also, and how God was entreated of him, and all his sin and his transgression, and the places wherein he built high places, and set up the Asherim and the graven images, before he humbled himself; behold, they are written in the history of the seers.
19他的禱告，與 上帝 怎樣應允他，他未自卑以前的罪愆過犯，並在何處建築邱壇，設立 亞舍拉 和雕刻的偶像，都寫在 何賽 的書上。
20So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house; and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
20瑪拿西 與他列祖同睡，葬在自己的宮院裏。他兒子 亞們 接續他作王。
21Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
21亞們 登基的時候年二十二歲，在 耶路撒冷 作王二年。
22And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as did Manasseh his father; and Amon sacrificed unto all the graven images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them.
22他行耶和華眼中看為惡的事，效法他父 瑪拿西 所行的，祭祀事奉他父 瑪拿西 所雕刻的偶像，
23And he humbled not himself before the LORD, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but this same Amon became guilty more and more.
23不在耶和華面前像他父 瑪拿西 自卑。這 亞們 所犯的罪越犯越大。
24And his servants conspired against him, and put him to death in his own house.
24他的臣僕背叛，在宮裏殺了他。
25But 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.
25但國民殺了那些背叛 亞們 王的人，立他兒子 約西亞 接續他作王。
