2 Kings 14:15-22
New International Version
15 As for the other events of the reign of Jehoash, what he did and his achievements, including his war(A) against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel? 16 Jehoash rested with his ancestors and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel. And Jeroboam his son succeeded him as king.
17 Amaziah son of Joash king of Judah lived for fifteen years after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel. 18 As for the other events of Amaziah’s reign, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah?
19 They conspired(B) against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish,(C) but they sent men after him to Lachish and killed him there. 20 He was brought back by horse(D) and was buried in Jerusalem with his ancestors, in the City of David.
21 Then all the people of Judah took Azariah,[a](E) who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah. 22 He was the one who rebuilt Elath(F) and restored it to Judah after Amaziah rested with his ancestors.
