God’s Word Translation
2 Kings 21:18-24
18Manasseh lay down in death with his ancestors. He was buried in the garden of his own palace, in the garden of Uzza. His son Amon succeeded him as king.
19Amon was 22 years old when he began to rule, and he ruled for 2 years in Jerusalem. His mother was Meshullemeth, daughter of Haruz from Jotbah.
20He did what the Lord considered evil, as his father Manasseh had done.
21He lived like his father in every way and worshiped and prayed to the idols his father had worshiped.
22He abandoned the Lord God of his ancestors and didn’t live the Lord’s way.
23Amon’s officials plotted against him and killed him in his palace.
24Then the people of the land killed everyone who had plotted against King Amon. They made his son Josiah king in his place.
