2 Chronicles 24:24-26

King James Version

²⁴For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men, and the Lord delivered a very great host into their hand, because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers. So they executed judgment against Joash.

²⁵And when they were departed from him, (for they left him in great diseases,) his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slew him on his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchres of the kings.

²⁶And these are they that conspired against him; Zabad the son of Shimeath an Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith a Moabitess.

New American Standard Bible

²⁴Indeed, the army of the Arameans came with a small number of men; yet ^(A)the Lord handed a very great army over to them, ^(B)because ^[a]Judah and Joash had abandoned the Lord, the God of their fathers. So they executed judgment on Joash.

²⁵^(C)When they left him (for they left him very sick), his own servants conspired against him because of the blood of the ^[b]son of Jehoiada the priest, and they murdered him on his bed. So he died, and they buried him in the city of David, but they did not bury him in the tombs of the kings. ²⁶Now these are the men who conspired against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
