Bible. Kings, 2nd
12:021:017 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and
his sin that he sinned, are they not written in the book of
the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
12:021:018 And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the
garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza: and Amon his
son reigned in his stead.
12:021:019 Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign, and
he reigned two years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was
Meshullemeth, the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
12:021:020 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as
his father Manasseh did.
12:021:021 And he walked in all the way that his father walked in, and
served the idols that his father served, and worshipped them:
12:021:022 And he forsook the LORD God of his fathers, and walked not in
the way of the LORD.
12:021:023 And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and slew the
king in his own house.
12:021:024 And the people of the land slew all them that had conspired
against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his
son king in his stead.
12:021:025 Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, are they not
written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
12:021:026 And he was buried in his sepulchre in the garden of Uzza: and
Josiah his son reigned in his stead.
12:022:001 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he
reigned thirty and one years in Jerusalem. And his mother's
name was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah of Boscath.
12:022:002 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, and
walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not
aside to the right hand or to the left.
12:022:003 And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Josiah,
that the king sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, the son of
Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of the LORD, saying,
12:022:004 Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may sum the silver
which is brought into the house of the LORD, which the keepers
of the door have gathered of the people:
12:022:005 And let them deliver it into the hand of the doers of the
work, that have the oversight of the house of the LORD: and
let them give it to the doers of the work which is in the
house of the LORD, to repair the breaches of the house,
12:022:006 Unto carpenters, and builders, and masons, and to buy timber
and hewn stone to repair the house.
12:022:007 Howbeit there was no reckoning made with them of the money
that was delivered into their hand, because they dealt
faithfully.
