2 Chronicles 24:15-22

15And Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died; he was a hundred and thirty years old when he died.

16And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward 1God and toward his house.

17And after the death of Jehoiada the princes of Judah came and made obeisance to the king; then the king hearkened to them.

18And they forsook the house of Jehovah the 2God of their fathers, and served the Asherahs and idols; and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their trespass.

19And he sent prophets among them to bring them again to Jehovah, and they testified against them; but they would not give ear.

20And the Spirit of 3God came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest; and he stood up above the people and said unto them, Thus saith 4God: Wherefore do ye transgress the commandments of Jehovah? And ye cannot prosper; for ye have forsaken Jehovah, and he hath forsaken you.

21And they conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the command of the king in the court of the house of Jehovah.

22And king Joash remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, Jehovah see and require [it]!
