2 And he did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, ^yaccording to the despicable practices of the nations whom the Lord drove out before the people of Israel.

26 Still the Lord did not turn from the burning of his great wrath, by which his anger was kindled against Judah, ^tbecause of all the provocations with which Manasseh had provoked him.

3 Surely this came upon Judah at the command of the Lord, to remove them out of his sight, ^ofor the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he had done, 4 and also ^pfor the innocent blood that he had shed. For he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and the Lord would not pardon.

4 ^xAnd I will make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth because of what ^yManasseh the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah, did in Jerusalem.
