2 Kings 14:17-22

17Joash’s son King Amaziah of Judah lived 15 years after the death of Jehoahaz’s son King Jehoash of Israel.

18Isn’t everything else about Amaziah written in the official records of the kings of Judah?

19Conspirators in Jerusalem plotted against him, so he fled to Lachish. But they sent men to Lachish after him and killed him there.

20They brought him back by horse, and he was buried in Jerusalem, in the City of David, with his ancestors.

21All the people of Judah took Azariah, who was 16 years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.

22Azariah rebuilt Elath and returned it to Judah after King Amaziah lay down in death with his ancestors.
