Amaziah dies

²⁵ Joash's son Amaziah, the king of Judah, lived for 15 years after Jehoahaz's son Jehoash, the king of Israel, died.^{[a] 26} All the other things that happened while Amaziah was king are written in a book. The book is called ‘The history of the kings of Judah and Israel’. ²⁷ After Amaziah had turned away from the Lord, some people in Jerusalem made a plan to kill him. So he ran away to Lachish. But the people in Jerusalem sent men to catch him in Lachish. They killed Amaziah there.^[b]
