Judah’s King Amon
21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he 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 The common people[a] killed all who had conspired against King Amon, and they 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.
