But they sent after him to Lachish and killed him there. 28 They brought him back on horses; he was buried with his ancestors in the city of David.

When Amaziah fled to Lachish, they sent men after him, and they murdered him in Lachish. 28 They carried him back on horses and he was buried with his ancestors in David’s City.[a]
