2 Kings 21:2 in Context — 2 Kings 21

1 Manassé avait douze ans lorsqu’il devint roi, et il régna cinquante-cinq ans à Jérusalem. Sa mère s’appelait Hephtsiba.

2 Il fit ce qui est mal aux yeux de l’Éternel, selon les abominations des nations que l’Éternel avait chassées devant les enfants d’Israël.

3 Il rebâtit les hauts lieux qu’Ézéchias, son père, avait détruits, il éleva des autels à Baal, il fit une idole d’Astarté, comme avait fait Achab, roi d’Israël, et il se prosterna devant toute l’armée des cieux et la servit.

4 Il bâtit des autels dans la maison de l’Éternel, quoique l’Éternel eût dit: C’est dans Jérusalem que je placerai mon nom.
