For there was not left to Jehoahaz an army of more than fifty horsemen and ten chariots and ten thousand footmen, for the king of Syria had destroyed them and made them like the dust (A)at threshing.

So Jehoahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria, and Joash his son reigned in his place.

He did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, (B)which he made Israel to sin, but he walked in them.
