2 Chronicles 33:12 in context

  1. 10Yahweh spoke to Manasseh, and to his people; but they didn’t listen.
  2. 11Therefore Yahweh brought on them the captains of the army of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh in chains, bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
  3. 12When he was in distress, he begged Yahweh his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.
  4. 13He prayed to him; and he was entreated by him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that Yahweh was God.
  5. 14Now after this, he built an outer wall to David’s city, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance at the fish gate. He encircled Ophel with it, and raised it up to a very great height; and he put valiant captains in all the fortified cities of Judah.
