2 Kings 14:17-24

17Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, lived fifteen years after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.

18Now the rest of the deeds of Amaziah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

19And they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. But they sent after him to Lachish and put him to death there.

20And they brought him on horses; and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David.

21And all the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amaziah.

22He built Elath and restored it to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.

23In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel, began to reign in Samaria, and he reigned forty-one years.

24And he did what was evil in the sight of the Lord. He did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he made Israel to sin.
