Holman Christian Standard Bible
Judah’s King Amon
21 Amon was 22 years old when he became king and reigned two years in Jerusalem. 22 He did what was evil in the Lord’s sight just as his father Manasseh had done.(A) Amon sacrificed to all the carved images that his father Manasseh had made, and he served them. 23 But he did not humble himself before the Lord like his father Manasseh humbled himself;(B) instead, Amon increased his guilt.
24 So his servants conspired against him and put him to death(C) in his own house. 25 Then the common people[a] executed all those who conspired against King Amon and made his son Josiah king in his place.

International Standard Version
Amon’s Reign and Death(A)
21 Amon was 22 years old when he became king, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. 22 He practiced what the Lord considered to be evil, just as his father Manasseh had done, sacrificing to and serving all the carved images that his father Manasseh had made, 23 except that he never humbled himself to the Lord like his father Manasseh had done. In fact, Amon multiplied his own guilt 24 until his servants finally conspired against him and executed him in his own palace. 25 But the people of the land executed all of the conspirators against King Amon and installed his son Josiah as king to succeed him.

New International Version
Amon King of Judah(A)
21 Amon(B) was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years. 22 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Manasseh had done. Amon worshiped and offered sacrifices to all the idols Manasseh had made. 23 But unlike his father Manasseh, he did not humble(C) himself before the Lord; Amon increased his guilt.
24 Amon’s officials conspired against him and assassinated him in his palace. 25 Then the people(D) of the land killed all who had plotted against King Amon, and they made Josiah his son king in his place.
