A son of twelve years is Manasseh in his reigning, and fifty and five years he hath reigned in Jerusalem;

And when he is in distress he hath appeased the face of Jehovah his God, and is humbled exceedingly before the God of his fathers,

and his prayer, and his entreaty, and all his sin, and his trespass, and the places in which he had built high places, and established the shrines and the graven images before his being humbled, lo, they are written beside the matters of Hozai.

They were ashamed when they did abomination! Yea, they are not at all ashamed, And blushing they have not known, Therefore, they do fall among falling ones, In the time of their inspection they stumble, said Jehovah.

And in the time of his distress -- he addeth to trespass against Jehovah, (this king Ahaz),

And they have not hearkened unto Me, Nor inclined their ear, and harden their neck, They have done evil above their fathers.

and evil men and impostors shall advance to the worse, leading astray and being led astray.
