2 Kings 21:18-24

18So Manasseh rested with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza. Then his son Amon reigned in his place.

19Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.

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

21So he walked in all the ways that his father had walked; and he served the idols that his father had served, and worshiped them.

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

23Then the servants of Amon conspired against him, and killed the king in his own house.

24But the people of the land executed all those who had conspired against King Amon. Then the people of the land made his son Josiah king in his place.
