14 2 Amaziah the king of Judah putteth to death them that slew his father, 7 and after smiteth Edom. 15 Joash dieth, and Jeroboam his son succeedeth him. 29 And after him reigneth Zechariah.
1 The second year of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel, reigned (A)Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah.
2 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem, and his mother’s name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.
3 And he did [a]uprightly in the sight of the Lord, yet not like David his father, but did according to all that Joash his father had done.
