2 Chronicles 33:21-25
Lexham English Bible
21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. 22 And he did what was evil in the eyes of Yahweh as Manasseh his father had done. And Amon sacrificed to all the idols that Manasseh his father had made, and he served them. 23 And he did not humble himself before Yahweh, as Manasseh his father humbled himself, but Amon himself multiplied his guilt. 24 And his servants conspired against him and killed him in his house. 25 But the people of the land struck down all who conspired against King Amon. And the people of the land made his son Josiah king in his place.

Amon Becomes King in Judah
21 (A)Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned for two years in Jerusalem. 22 He did evil in the sight of the Lord, just as his father Manasseh (B)had done, and Amon sacrificed to all (C)the carved images which his father Manasseh had made, and he served them. 23 Furthermore, he did not humble himself before the Lord (D)as his father Manasseh had [a]done, but Amon multiplied his guilt. 24 Finally, (E)his servants conspired against him and put him to death in his own house. 25 But the people of the land [b]killed all the conspirators against King Amon, and the people of the land made his son Josiah king in his place.
