II Kings 21:1-6 (NKJV)
[1] Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hephzibah.
[2] And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, according to the abominations of the nations whom the LORD had cast out before the children of Israel.
[3] For he rebuilt the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; he raised up altars for Baal, and made a wooden image, as Ahab king of Israel had done; and he worshiped all the host of heaven and served them.
[4] He also built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, “In Jerusalem I will put My name.”
[5] And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD.
[6] Also he made his son pass through the fire, practiced soothsaying, used witchcraft, and consulted spiritists and mediums. He did much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke Him to anger.
