WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Manasés tenía doce años cuando comenzó a reinar en Judá, y reinó cincuenta y cinco años en Jerusalén. Su madre era Hepsiba.
1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hephzibah.
2 Manasés fue un mal rey, pues hizo lo que no le agrada al Señor, pues imitó las prácticas abominables de las naciones que fueron arrojadas de la tierra para dejarle el lugar al pueblo de Israel.
2 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, after the abominations of the nations whom Yahweh cast out before the children of Israel.
3 Reedificó los santuarios de las colinas, que su padre Ezequías había destruido. Edificó altares a Baal e hizo una abominable imagen de la diosa Aserá, tal como lo había hecho Acab, rey de Israel. Levantó altares al dios sol, a la diosa luna, y a los dioses de las estrellas en el templo del Señor, ¡precisamente en la ciudad y el edificio que el Señor había elegido para honrar su propio nombre!
3 For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he raised up altars for Baal, and made an Asherah, as Ahab king of Israel did, and worshiped all the army of the sky, and served them.
4 Not in this translation
4 He built altars in Yahweh’s house, of which Yahweh said, “I will put my name in Jerusalem.”
5 Not in this translation
5 He built altars for all the army of the sky in the two courts of Yahweh’s house.
6 Además, hizo quemar en un altar pagano a uno de sus propios hijos. Practicó la brujería y la adivinación, y consultó a espiritistas y a adivinos. En fin, hizo todo lo que el Señor desaprueba. Por eso, el Señor se enojó con él.
6 He made his son to pass through the fire, practiced sorcery, used enchantments, and dealt with those who had familiar spirits and with wizards. He did much evil in Yahweh’s sight, to provoke him to anger.
7 Manasés llegó a colocar una abominable imagen de la diosa Aserá en la casa en la cual el Señor había dicho a David y a Salomón: «Yo pondré para siempre mi nombre en esta casa, y en Jerusalén, ciudad que he escogido de entre todas las ciudades de las tribus de Israel.
7 He set the engraved image of Asherah that he had made in the house of which Yahweh 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, I will put my name forever;
8 Si el pueblo de Israel sigue los mandamientos que les entregué por medio de Moisés, yo jamás los expulsaré de la tierra que di a sus padres».
8 I will not cause the feet of Israel to wander any more out of the land which I gave their fathers, if only they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.”
9 Pero el pueblo no quiso escuchar al Señor, y Manasés los indujo a hacer mayores males que las naciones vecinas, aun cuando el Señor había destruido a aquellas naciones por sus malos comportamientos, cuando el pueblo de Israel entró en la tierra.
9 But they didn’t listen, and Manasseh seduced them to do that which is evil more than the nations did whom Yahweh destroyed before the children of Israel.
10 Entonces el Señor declaró por medio de los profetas:
10 Yahweh spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,
11 «Por cuanto el rey Manasés ha hecho estas iniquidades, y es aun más malo que los amorreos que vivían en esta tierra hace mucho tiempo, y por cuanto ha llevado al pueblo de Judá a la idolatría,
11 “Because Manasseh king of Judah has done these abominations, and has done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, who were before him, and has also made Judah to sin with his idols;
12 yo traeré tal mal sobre Jerusalén y Judá, que los oídos de los que lo oigan les retumbarán de horror.
12 therefore Yahweh the God of Israel says, ‘Behold, I will bring such evil on Jerusalem and Judah that whoever hears of it, both his ears will tingle.
13 Haré que los reyes de Israel conquisten a Jerusalén, y borraré Jerusalén como un hombre limpia un plato y lo pone boca abajo para que se seque.
13 I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plumb line of Ahab’s house; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.
14 Rechazaré aun a los pocos de mi pueblo que han quedado, y los entregaré como despojo y botín en manos de sus enemigos.
14 I will cast off the remnant of my inheritance and deliver them into the hands of their enemies. They will become a prey and a plunder to all their enemies,
15 Porque han hecho grandes males y me han hecho enojar siempre, desde que traje a sus antepasados de Egipto».
15 because they have done that which is evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger since the day their fathers came out of Egypt, even to this day.’”
16 Además de practicar la idolatría, que el Señor odia, y de hacer que el pueblo de Judá también la practicara, Manasés asesinó a gran número de personas inocentes. Jerusalén quedó llena de un extremo a otro de los cadáveres de sus víctimas.
16 Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, until he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; in addition to his sin with which he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight.
17 El resto de la historia de Manasés y de su reinado pecaminoso está escrito en el libro de los reyes de Judá.
17 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
18 Cuando murió, fue sepultado en su palacio, en el jardín de Uza. Su hijo Amón fue el nuevo rey.
18 Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza; and Amon his son reigned in his place.
19 Amón tenía veintidós años cuando comenzó a reinar sobre Judá, y reinó dos años en Jerusalén. Su madre era Mesulémet, hija de Jaruz, de Jotba.
19 Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
20 Amón hizo todo lo que desagrada al Señor, siguiendo, así, el ejemplo de su padre Manasés.
20 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, as Manasseh his father did.
21 Hizo todas las maldades que su padre había hecho, y adoró los mismos ídolos.
21 He walked in all the ways that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshiped them;
22 Así que Amón abandonó su fe en el Señor, Dios de sus antepasados, pues no vivió de acuerdo con su voluntad.
22 and he abandoned Yahweh, the God of his fathers, and didn’t walk in the way of Yahweh.
23 Pero sus servidores conspiraron contra él y lo mataron en el palacio.
23 The servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house.
24 Luego, la gente del pueblo dio muerte a los asesinos, y pusieron a Josías hijo de Amón, como rey de Judá.
24 But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.
25 El resto de la biografía de Amón está escrito en el libro de los reyes de Judá.
25 Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
26 Cuando Amón murió, fue sepultado en su propia tumba, en el jardín de Uza. Su hijo Josías fue el nuevo rey.
26 He was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza, and Josiah his son reigned in his place.
