2 Kings 21:18-24

18And Manasseh slept with his fathers and was buried in the garden of his house, in the garden of Uzza, and Amon his son reigned in his place.

19Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.

20And he did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, as Manasseh his father had done.

21He walked in all the way in which his father walked and served the idols that his father served and worshiped them.

22He abandoned the Lord, the God of his fathers, and did not walk in the way of the Lord.

23And the servants of Amon conspired against him and put the king to death in his house.

24But the people of the land struck down all those who had conspired against King Amon, and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.
