2 Kings 14:1-7

1In the second yearH8141 of JoashH3101 sonH1121 of JehoahazH3099, kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, began AmaziahH558 the sonH1121 of JoashH3101, kingH4428 of JudahH3063, to reignH4427.

2He was twenty-five yearsH8141 old when he began to reignH4427; and he reignedH4427 twenty-nine yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389; and his mother's nameH8034 was JehoaddanH3086 of JerusalemH3389.

3And he did what was rightH3477 in the sight of Jehovah, yet not like DavidH1732 his fatherH1: he did according to all that JoashH3101 his fatherH1 had done.

4OnlyH7535, the highH1116 placesH1116 were not removedH5493: the peopleH5971 stillH5750 sacrificedH2076 and burned incenseH6999 on the highH1116 placesH1116.

5And it came to pass when the kingdomH4467 wasH1961 established in his handH3027, that he slew his servantsH5650 who had smitten the kingH4428 his fatherH1.

6But the children of those that smote [him] he did not putH4191 to deathH4191; according to that which is writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the lawH8451 of MosesH4872, wherein Jehovah commandedH6680 sayingH559, The fathersH1 shall not be putH4191 to deathH4191 for the children, neither shall the children be putH4191 to deathH4191 for the fathersH1; but every manH376 shall be putH4191 to deathH4191 for his own sinH2399.

7He smote of EdomH123 in the valleyH1516 of saltH4417 tenH6235 thousandH505, and took SelaH5554 in the warH4421, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 of it JoktheelH3371 to this dayH3117.
