1 Manasseh na twelf years wen e start to rule and e rule from Jerusalem for fifty-five years. En mama name na Hepzibah. 2 E nor gri obey God and e kon dey sin like di oda kountries wey God drive komot der. 3 E ribuild di high place dem wey en papa Hezekaya bin distroy; e build altars for Baal juju kon make Asherah juju, just as King Ahab do for Israel. E dey bow and woship stars for sky. 4 E build juju altar for God Temple, even wen God don sey, “Jerusalem na my house.” 5 For di two kourtyard wey dey God Temple, e build altar for all di stars wey dey di sky. 6 E dey sakrifice en sons and dey do majik. E dig one pit where dem for dey koll dead body spirit kom out kon choose majik men make dem dey look am. Di bad-bad tins wey e do many well-well for God eye, so God kon dey vex.
7 E put Asherah juju wey e make for di temple, di place where God don tell David and en pikin, Solomon sey, “Dis temple for Jerusalem wey I don choose from all di tribes for Israel, go bi where I go stay forever. 8 I nor go porshu Israel pipol from dis land wey I don give to dia grand-grand papa, as long as dem obey all di kommand and laws wey I give dem thru Moses, my savant.” 9 But dem nor gri obey and Manasseh make all of dem bigin sin pass di kountries wey God distroy bikos of Israel pipol.

And e go shok anybody wey go hear wetin happen. 13 As I take distroy Samaria and Ahab generashon, na so too I go distroy Jerusalem. I go make sure sey nor-tin dey for Jerusalem again and e go bi like plate wey dem wosh klean. 14 Di tribe wey remain among my pipol, I go forget dem kon give dem to dia enemies wey go beat and tif dia propaty, 15 bikos dem don sin against mi kon make mi dey vex since wen dia grand-grand papa komot from Egypt kon rish naw!’ ”
16 Manasseh still kill many innocent pipol and dia blood don stain Jerusalem from one end go rish di oda end. E even still dey enkourage Judah pipol to sin against God.
