Luke 23:39-43
New King James Version
39 (A)Then one of the criminals who were hanged blasphemed Him, saying, [a]“If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us.”
40 But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done (B)nothing wrong.” 42 Then he said [b]to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.”
43 And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in (C)Paradise.”

2 Chronicles 33:12-24
New King James Version
12 Now when he was in affliction, he implored the Lord his God, and (A)humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers, 13 and prayed to Him; and He (B)received his entreaty, heard his supplication, and brought him back to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh (C)knew that the Lord was God.
14 After this he built a wall outside the City of David on the west side of (D)Gihon, in the valley, as far as the entrance of the Fish Gate; and it (E)enclosed Ophel, and he raised it to a very great height. Then he put military captains in all the fortified cities of Judah. 15 He took away (F)the 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 (G)thank offerings on it, and commanded Judah to serve the Lord God of Israel. 17 (H)Nevertheless the people still sacrificed on the [a]high places, but only to the Lord their God.
Death of Manasseh(I)
18 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, his prayer to his God, and the words of (J)the seers who spoke to him in the name of the Lord God of Israel, indeed they are written in the [b]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 built [c]high places and set up wooden images and carved images, before he was humbled, indeed they are written among the sayings of [d]Hozai. 20 (K)So Manasseh rested with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. Then his son Amon reigned in his place.
Amon’s Reign and Death(L)
21 (M)Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. 22 But he did evil in the sight of the Lord, as his father Manasseh had done; for Amon sacrificed to all the carved images which his father Manasseh had made, and served them. 23 And he did not humble himself before the Lord, (N)as his father Manasseh had humbled himself; but Amon trespassed more and more.
24 (O)Then his servants conspired against him, and (P)killed him in his own house.
