10 And the Lord spoke nby His servants the prophets, saying, 11 o“Because Manasseh king of Judah has done these abominations (phe has acted more wickedly than all the qAmorites who were before him, and rhas also made Judah sin with his idols), 12 therefore thus says the Lord God of Israel: ‘Behold, I am bringing such calamity upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whoever hears of it, both shis ears will tingle. 13 And I will stretch over Jerusalem tthe measuring line of Samaria and the plummet of the house of Ahab; uI will wipe Jerusalem as one wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down. 14 So I will forsake the vremnant of My inheritance and deliver them into the hand of their enemies; and they shall become victims of plunder to all their enemies, 15 because they have done evil in My sight, and have provoked Me to anger since the day their fathers came out of Egypt, even to this day.’ ”

16 wMoreover Manasseh shed very much innocent blood, till he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another, besides his sin by which he made Judah sin, in doing evil in the sight of the Lord.
