Lexham English Bible
12 And when he was in distress he entreated Yahweh his God and greatly humbled himself before the God of his ancestors[a] 13 and prayed to him. And God responded to him and heard his plea and let him return to Jerusalem to his kingdom. And Manasseh knew that Yahweh was God.
14 Then afterward he built an outer wall for the city of David west of the Gihon in the valley, and for the entrance into the Gate of the Fishes. And it encircled the Ophel and raised it very high. Then he placed strong commanders in all the fortified cities of Judah.

2 Chronicles 33:12-14
New International Version
12 In his distress he sought the favor of the Lord his God and humbled(A) himself greatly before the God of his ancestors. 13 And when he prayed to him, the Lord was moved by his entreaty and listened to his plea; so he brought him back to Jerusalem and to his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the Lord is God.
14 Afterward he rebuilt the outer wall of the City of David, west of the Gihon(B) spring in the valley, as far as the entrance of the Fish Gate(C) and encircling the hill of Ophel;(D) he also made it much higher. He stationed military commanders in all the fortified cities in Judah.
