Bible. Kings, 2nd
12:014:018 And the rest of the acts of Amaziah, are they not written in
the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
12:014:019 Now they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: and he
fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish, and slew
him there.
12:014:020 And they brought him on horses: and he was buried at Jerusalem
with his fathers in the city of David.
12:014:021 And all the people of Judah took Azariah, which was sixteen
years old, and made him king instead of his father Amaziah.
12:014:022 He built Elath, and restored it to Judah, after that the king
slept with his fathers.
12:014:023 In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash king of
Judah Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel began to reign
in Samaria, and reigned forty and one years.
12:014:024 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he
departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat,
who made Israel to sin.
12:014:025 He restored the coast of Israel from the entering of Hamath
unto the sea of the plain, according to the word of the LORD
God of Israel, which he spake by the hand of his servant
Jonah, the son of Amittai, the prophet, which was of
Gathhepher.
12:014:026 For the LORD saw the affliction of Israel, that it was very
bitter: for there was not any shut up, nor any left, nor any
helper for Israel.
12:014:027 And the LORD said not that he would blot out the name of
Israel from under heaven: but he saved them by the hand of
Jeroboam the son of Joash.
12:014:028 Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and
his might, how he warred, and how he recovered Damascus, and
Hamath, which belonged to Judah, for Israel, are they not
written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
12:014:029 And Jeroboam slept with his fathers, even with the kings of
Israel; and Zachariah his son reigned in his stead.
12:015:001 In the twenty and seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel
began Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah to reign.
12:015:002 Sixteen years old was he when he began to reign, and he
reigned two and fifty years in Jerusalem. And his mother's
name was Jecholiah of Jerusalem.
12:015:003 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD,
according to all that his father Amaziah had done;
12:015:004 Save that the high places were not removed: the people
sacrificed and burnt incense still on the high places.
12:015:005 And the LORD smote the king, so that he was a leper unto the
day of his death, and dwelt in a several house. And Jotham the
king's son was over the house, judging the people of the land.
