14 In the second year of Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz, the king of Israel, Amaziah the son of Joash, the king of Judah, became king. 2 He was a son of 25 years when he became king, and he was king 29 years in Jerusalem. And the name of his mother was Jehoaddan, from Jerusalem. 3 And he did what was upright in the eyes of Yahweh, only not like David his father. Like everything that Joash his father did, he did. 4 Only the high places were not removed—the people still were sacrificing and burning incense at the high places. 5 And it happened, just as the kingdom was strong in his hand, and he struck his servants, the ones who had struck the king, his father. 6 But the sons of the ones striking he did not kill, according to what is written on the Scroll of the Law of Moses, that Yahweh commanded, saying, “Fathers will not be killed on account of sons, and sons will not be killed on account of fathers—rather a person will be killed in exchanged for his sin.” 7 He himself struck Edom in the valley of Salt—10,000 people—and he seized the Sela in the war. And he called its name Joktheel until this day.
8 Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, the king of Israel, saying, “Come, let us cause our faces to be seen.” 9 And Jehoash the king of Israel sent to Amaziah the king of Judah saying, “The thorn that was in the Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in the Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son as a wife.’ And an animal of the field that was in the Lebanon passed by, and it trampled the thorn. 10 You have certainly struck Edom, and your heart has lifted you. Be honored, but stay in your house. And why should you stir up calamity, so that you will fall—you and Judah with you?”
11 But Amaziah did not listen. And Jehoash the king of Israel went up, and they cause their faces to be seen—he and Amaziah the king of Judah in Beth-Shemesh, which belongs to Judah. 12 And Judah was struck to the face of Israel. And they fled, each man to his tent. 13 And Jehoash the king of Israel captured Amaziah the king of Judah, the son of Jehoash, the son of Ahaziah, in Beth-Shemesh. And he came to Jerusalem, and he broke down the wall of Jerusalem at the Gate of Ephraim up to the Gate of the Corner—400 cubits. 14 And he took all the gold and the silver and all the equipment that was found in the house of Yahweh and in the treasuries of the house of the king and the sons of the pledges. And he returned to Samaria.
15 But the rest of the words of Jehoash, what he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah the king of Judah—are they not written on the scroll of the words of the days of the kings of Israel? 16 And Jehoash slept with his fathers, and he was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel. And Jeroboam his son became king in his place.
17 And Amaziah the son of Joash, the king of Judah, lived 15 years after the death of Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz, the king of Israel. 18 But the rest of the words of Amaziah—are they not written on the scroll of the words of the days of the kings of Judah? 19 For they conspired a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. But they sent after him to Lachish, and they killed him there. 20 And they carried him on the horses, and he was buried in Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David. 21 And all the people of Judah took Azariah (and he was a son of 16 years), and they made him king in place of his father Amaziah. 22 He himself built up Elath, and he returned it to Judah after the king slept with his fathers.
23 In the year of the 15th year of Amaziah the son of Joash, the king of Judah, Jeroboam the son of Jehoash, the king of Israel, became king in Samaria—41 years. 24 And he did what was evil in the eyes of Yahweh. He did not turn away from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who had caused Israel to sin. 25 He himself restored the border of Israel from Lebo-Hamath to the Sea of the Desert, according to the word of Yahweh the God of Israel, which he spoke by the hand of his servant Jonah the son of Amittai, the prophet, who was from the Gath-Hepher. 26 For Yahweh saw the very bitter affliction of Israel, and there was none being bound and none set free, and there was no helper for Israel. 27 But Yahweh had not spoken to wipe out the name of Israel from under the heavens. And he rescued them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Jehoash.
28 But the rest of the words of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his might, how he fought, and how he restored Damascus and Hamath to Judah in Israel—are they not written on the scroll of the words of the days of the kings of Israel? 29 And Jeroboam slept with his fathers, with the kings of Israel, and Zechariah his son became king in his place.
