2 Chronicles 33:12

Manasseh's Repentance

¹¹ So Yahweh brought in upon them, the captains of the army that belonged to the king of Assyria, and they captured Manasseh with hooks, - and bound him captive with a pair of bronze fetters, and took him away to Babylon. ¹² But, in his distress, he appeased the face of Yahweh his God, - and humbled himself greatly, before the God of his fathers; ¹³ and, when he prayed unto him, then was he entreated of him, and hearkened unto his supplication, and brought him back to Jerusalem, unto his own kingdom, and so Manasseh came to know, that, Yahweh, is God.
