2 Chronicles 33:11-14
New American Standard Bible 1995
11 (A)Therefore the Lord brought the commanders of the army of the king of Assyria against them, and they captured Manasseh with [a]hooks, (B)bound him with bronze chains and took him to Babylon. 12 When (C)he was in distress, he entreated the Lord his God and (D)humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers. 13 When he prayed to Him, (E)He was moved by his entreaty and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem to his kingdom. Then Manasseh (F)knew that the Lord was God.
14 Now after this he built the outer wall of the city of David on the west side of (G)Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance of the (H)Fish Gate; and he encircled the (I)Ophel with it and made it very high. Then he put army commanders in all the fortified cities of Judah.
