2 Kings 21:19-26

191AmonH526 was twenty-twoH6242H8147 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he becameH4427 kingH4427, and he reignedH4427 twoH8147 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389; and his mother’sH517 nameH8034 was MeshullemethH4922 the daughterH1323 of HaruzH2743 of JotbahH3192.

20He didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, 2as ManassehH4519 his fatherH1 had doneH6213.

21For he walkedH1980 in allH3605 the wayH1870 that his fatherH1 had walkedH1980, and servedH5647 the idolsH1544 that his fatherH1 had servedH5647 and worshipedH7812 them.

22So 3he forsookH5800 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of his fathersH1, and did not walkH1980 in the wayH1870 of the LordH3068.

234The servantsH5650 of AmonH526 conspiredH7194 againstH5921 him and killedH4191 the kingH4428 in his own houseH1004.

24Then 5the peopleH5971 of the landH776 6killedH5221 allH3605 those who had conspiredH7194 againstH5921 KingH4428 AmonH526, and the peopleH5971 of the landH776 madeH4427 JosiahH2977 his sonH1121 kingH4427 in his placeH8478.

25Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of AmonH526 whichH834 he didH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the BookH5612 of the ChroniclesH1697H3117 of the KingsH4428 of JudahH3063?

26He was buriedH6912 in his graveH6900 7in the gardenH1588 of UzzaH5798, and JosiahH2977 his sonH1121 becameH4427 kingH4427 in his placeH8478.
