2 Chronicles 33:17
Still - Manasseh could not carry the reformation so far as he had carried the corruption. It is an easy thing to debauch men's manners; but not so easy to reform them again.
15 He took away athe foreign gods and the idol from the house of the Lord, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of the Lord and in Jerusalem; and he cast them out of the city.
16 He also repaired the altar of the Lord, sacrificed peace offerings and athank offerings on it, and commanded Judah to serve the Lord God of Israel.
17 aNevertheless the people still sacrificed on the1 high places, but only to the Lord their God.
Death of Manasseh
18 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, his prayer to his God, and the words of athe seers who spoke to him in the name of the Lord God of Israel, indeed they are written in the1 book of the kings of Israel.
19 Also his prayer and how God received his entreaty, and all his sin and trespass, and the sites where he built1 high places and set up wooden images and carved images, before he was humbled, indeed they are written among the sayings of2 Hozai.
