2 Kings 21New American Bible (Revised Edition) (NABRE) Chapter 21 Reign of Manasseh. 1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hephzibah. 2 He did what was evil in the Lord’s sight, following the abominable practices of the nations whom the Lord had dispossessed before the Israelites. 3 He rebuilt the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed. He set up altars to Baal and also made an asherah, as Ahab, king of Israel, had done. He bowed down to the whole host of heaven and served them. 4 He built altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord had said: In Jerusalem I will set my name. 5 And he built altars for the whole host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord. 6 He immolated his child by fire. He practiced soothsaying and divination, and reintroduced the consulting of ghosts and spirits. He did much evil in the Lord’s sight and provoked him to anger. 7 The Asherah idol he had made, he placed in the Lord’s house, of which the Lord had said to David and to his son Solomon: In this house and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I shall set my name forever. 8 I will no longer make Israel step out of the land I gave their ancestors, provided that they are careful to observe all I have commanded them and the entire law which Moses my servant enjoined upon them. 9 But they did not listen. Manasseh misled them into doing even greater evil than the nations the Lord had destroyed at the coming of the Israelites. 10 Then the Lord spoke through his servants the prophets: 11 “Because Manasseh, king of Judah, has practiced these abominations, and has done greater evil than all that was done by the Amorites before him, and has led Judah into sin by his idols, 12 therefore, thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: I am about to bring such evil on Jerusalem and Judah that, when any hear of it, their ears shall ring: 13 I will measure Jerusalem with the same cord as I did Samaria, and with the plummet I used for the house of Ahab. I will wipe Jerusalem clean as one wipes a dish, wiping it inside and out. 14 I will cast off the survivors of my inheritance. I will deliver them into enemy hands, to become prey and booty for all their enemies, 15 because they have done what is evil in my sight and provoked me from the day their ancestors came forth from Egypt until this very day.” 16 Manasseh shed so much innocent blood that it filled the length and breadth of Jerusalem, in addition to the sin he caused Judah to commit by doing what was evil in the Lord’s sight. 17 The rest of the acts of Manasseh, with all that he did and the sin he committed, are recorded in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah. 18 Manasseh rested with his ancestors; he was buried in his palace garden, the garden of Uzza, and his son Amon succeeded him as king. Reign of Amon. 19 Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Meshullemeth, daughter of Haruz, from Jotbah. 20 He did what was evil in the Lord’s sight, as his father Manasseh had done. 21 He walked in all the ways of his father; he served the idols his father had served, and bowed down to them. 22 He abandoned the Lord, the God of his ancestors, and did not walk in the way of the Lord. 23 Officials of Amon plotted against him and killed the king in his palace, 24 but the people of the land then slew all who had plotted against King Amon, and the people of the land made his son Josiah king in his stead. 25 The rest of the acts of Amon, which he did, are recorded in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah. 26 He was buried in his own grave in the garden of Uzza, and his son Josiah succeeded him as king.

2 राजा 21Nepali Bible: Easy-to-Read Version (ERV-NE) मनश्शे यहूदामा कुशासन शुरू गर्छन् 21 मनश्शे बाह्र बर्षका थिए जब उनले शासन शुरू गरे। उनले यरूशलेममा 55 बर्ष शासन गरे। उनको आमाको नाउँ हेप्सीबा थियो। 2 मनश्शेले ती कामहरू गरे जसलाई परमप्रभुले नराम्रो भन्नुभएको थियो। मनश्शेले अरू मानिसहरूले गरे जस्तै डरलाग्दा कामहरू गरे। (अनि परमप्रभुले ती राष्ट्रहरूलाई आफ्ना देश छोड्नु वाध्य गराउनुभयो जब इस्राएलीहरू आए।) 3 मनश्शेले अग्लाठाउँहरू फेरि बनाए जसलाई उनका पिताले भत्काएका थिए। मनश्शेले बालका लागि वेदीहरू पनि बनाए अनि अशेरा खाँबो निर्माण गरे जसरी इस्राएलका राजाले गरेका थिए। मनश्शेले आकाशका ताराहरूको पूजा गरे अनि सेवा गरे। 4 मनश्शेले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा असत्य देवताहरूको पूजा गर्न वेदीहरू बनाए। (यो त्यही ठाउँ हो जसको बारेमा परमप्रभु बोल्नु हुन्थ्यो जब उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “म मेरो नाउँ यरूशलेममा राख्नेछु।”) 5 मनश्शेले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको दुइवटा आँगनमा अकाशका ताराहरूका लागि वेदीहरू बनाए। 6 मनश्शेले आफ्नो छोराको बलि दिए अनि यसलाई वेदीमाथि जलाए। मनश्शेले भविष्य जान्नकालागि धेरै तरीकाहरू प्रयोग गरे। उनले भूत-प्रेत र पिशाचहरूसँग समर्पक राख्ने मानिसहरू अनि तंत्र-मंत्रगर्नेहरूलाई भेटे। मनश्शेले ति कामहरू बढिभन्दा बढी गरे जसलाई परमप्रभुले नराम्रो भन्नुभएको थियो। यसले परमप्रभुलाई रीस उठायो। 7 मनश्शेले अश्तारोत देवीको मूर्ति बनाए। उनले मूर्तिलाई मन्दिरमा स्थापित गरे। परमप्रभुले दाऊद दाऊदका छोरा सुलेमानलाई यस मन्दिरको विषयमा भन्नुभएको थियो, “इस्राएलका सबै शहरहरूमध्ये मैले यरूशलेमलाई चुनेको थिएँ। म यरूशलेमको मन्दिरमा आफ्नो नाउँ सदाका लागि राख्नेछु। 8 म इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई कहिल्यै पनि भूमि छोड्न वाध्य गराउने छैन जुन मैले उनका पिता-पुर्खाहरूलाई दिएको थिएँ। म मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूको आफ्नो देशमा बस्न दिनेछु यदि तिनीहरू मैले दिएको आदेशहरू पालन गर्छन् र मेरो सेवक मोशाले दिएको शिक्षा पालन गर्छन्।” 9 तर मानिसहरूले परमेश्वरको कुरा सुनेनन्। मनश्शेले इस्राएली आउन अघि कनानमा बस्ने सबै राष्ट्रहरूले गरेको भन्दा बढी दुष्कर्म गरे। अनि परमप्रभुले ती राष्ट्रहरूलाई खत्तम पार्नुभयो जब इस्राएलका मानिसहरू त्यो भूमिमा आए। 10 परमप्रभुले यी कुराहरू भन्नको लागि आफ्ना सेवक अगमवक्ताहरूलाई प्रयोग गर्नुभयोः 11 “यहूदाका राजा मनश्शेले उनी अघिका एमोरीहरूले भन्दा बढी घृणित र दुष्कर्म गरे। मनश्शेले देवी देवताका मूर्तिहरूले गर्दा यहूदालाई पनि पाप गर्न लगाए। 12 यसर्थ इस्राएलका परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ सुन, ‘म यरूशलेम र यहूदामा धेरै सङ्कट ल्याउनेछु जसले यस विषयमा सुन्नेहरू छक्क पर्नेछ। 13 म सामरियाको नाप्ने सीमा रेखा र आहाबको परिवारलाई नाप्ने साहुल यरूशलेमसम्म फिजाउनेछु। एउटा मानिसले थाल माझ्छ र यसलाई घोप्टाउँछ। त्यतै म यरूशलेमलाई गरिदिनेछु। 14 तर म मेरो बाँकी मनिसहरूलाई छोड्नेछु। म तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शत्रुद्वारा पराजित गराउँने छु। तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूले तिनीहरूलाई बन्दी बनाउनेछन्। तिनीहरू सैनिकहरूले युद्धको बेलामा पाउने बहुमूल्य चीजहरू जस्तै हुनेछन्। 15 म यस्तो गर्नेछु किनभने मेरा मानिसहरूले मैले गल्ती हो भनेको काम गरे। तिनीहरूले मलाई रीस उठाउने काम मिश्रबाट तिनीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरू निस्केको दिनदेखि गरेका छन्। 16 अनि मनश्शेले धेरै निर्दोष मानिसहरूलाई मारे। उनले यरूशलेममा एक छेऊदेखि अर्को छेउसम्म रगतले भरे अनि ती सबै पाप कामहरूको अतिरिक्त छन् जसले यहूदालाई पाप काम गर्न लगाए। मनश्शेले यहूदालाई ती कामहरू गर्न लगाए जसलाई परमप्रभुले नराम्रो भन्नु भएको थियो।’” 17 सबै कामहरू जो मनश्शेले गरे जसमा उनले गरेको पाप कामहरू पनि छ जसको विषयमा यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएको छ। 18 मनश्शेको मृत्यु भयो अनि उनलाई उनका पुर्खाहरूसँगै गाडियो। मनश्शेलेलाई उनको महलको बगैंचामा गाडियो। यसलाई, “उज्जाको बगैंचा” भनिन्थ्यो। मनश्शेका छोरा आमोन उनीपछि नयाँ राजा भए। आमोनको छोटो शासन 19 आमोन 22 बर्षका थिए जब उनले शासन शुरू गरे। उनले यरूशलेममा दुइ बर्ष शासन गरे। उनको आमाको नाउँ मशूलेमेत थियो जो योत्बाका हारूसकी छोरी थिइन्। 20 आमोनले आफ्ना पिता मनश्शे जस्तै ती कामहरू गरे जसलाई परमप्रभुले नराम्रो भन्नुभएको थियो। 21 आमोनले आफ्ना पिता जस्तै जीवन यापन गरे। आमोनले ती देवमूर्तीहरूको पूजा र सेवा गरे जसलाई उनका पिताले गरेका थिए। 22 आमोनले आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमप्रभु, परमेश्वरलाई त्यागे अनि परमप्रभुले चाहे जस्तो जीवन यापन गरेनन्। 23 आमोनका सेवकहरूले उनको विरोधमा षड्यन्त्र गरे अनि उनको आफ्नो महलमा नै उनको हत्या गरे। 24 साधारण मानिसहरूले ती सबै अधिकारीहरूको हत्या गरे जसले राजा आमोनको विरोधमा षड्यन्त्र गरेका थिए। त्यसपछि मानिसहरूले आमोनका छोरा योशियाहलाई उनीपछि नयाँ राजा बनाए। 25 आमोनले गरेको अरू कामहरूको विषयमा यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएको छ। 26 आमोनलाई उज्जाका बगैंचामा उनको चिहानमा गाडियो। आमोनका छोरा योशियाह नयाँ राजा भए।
