²⁵ Amaziah son of Joash, the king of Judah, lived fifteen years after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, the king of Israel. ²⁶ The ·other things Amaziah did as king [rest of the events/acts/history of Amaziah], from ·the beginning to the end [first to last], ·are [^Lare they not…?] written in the ·book [scroll] of the kings of Judah and Israel. ²⁷ When Amaziah ·stopped obeying [turned away from] the Lord, the people in Jerusalem ·made plans [conspired; plotted] against him. So he ·ran away [fled] to the town of Lachish, but they sent men after him to Lachish and killed him there. ²⁸ They brought his body back on horses, and he was buried with his ·ancestors [fathers] in the city of ·Judah [or David; ^Csee 2 Kin. 14:20].
