2 Kings 21:19-26

Holman Christian Standard Bible CSB

19 Amon was 22 years old when he became king; he reigned two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Meshullemeth daughter of Haruz; [she was] from Jotbah.

20 He did what was evil in the Lord's sight as his father Manasseh had done.

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

22 He abandoned the Lord God of his ancestors and did not walk in the way of the Lord.

23 Amon's servants conspired against the king and killed him in his own house.

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

25 The rest of the events of Amon's [reign], along with his accomplishments, are written about in the Historical Record of Judah's Kings.

26 He was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza, and his son Josiah became king in his place.

New International Version NIV

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

20 He did evil in the eyes of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done.

21 He followed completely the ways of his father, worshiping the idols his father had worshiped, and bowing down to them.

22 He forsook the LORD, the God of his ancestors, and did not walk in obedience to him.

23 Amon’s officials conspired against him and assassinated the king in his palace.

24 Then the people of the land killed all who had plotted against King Amon, and they made Josiah his son king in his place.

25 As for the other events of Amon’s reign, and what he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah?

26 He was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza. And Josiah his son succeeded him as king.
