Evil Manasseh Reigns After Godly Hezekiah

⁴ And he built altars in the very house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, "In Jerusalem I will put my name." ⁵ And he built altars unto all the host of heaven, even in two courts of the house of the LORD. ⁶ And he offered his son in fire, and observed dismal days; and used witchcraft and maintained workers with spirits, and tellers of fortunes - and wrought much wickedness in the sight of the LORD to anger him.
