25 Amaziah was twenty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem. ² And he did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, but not with a perfect heart. ³ Now it came to pass, when the kingdom was established unto him, that he slew his servants that had killed the king his father. ⁴ But he put not their children to death, but did according to that which is written in the law in the book of Moses, as Jehovah commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin.
