2 Kings 23:30–35

³⁰From Megiddo his servants carried his dead body in a chariot, brought him into Jerusalem, and buried him in his own tomb.^g Then the common people took Jehoahaz son of Josiah, anointed him, and made him king in place of his father.^h

JUDAH’S KING JEHOAHAZ

³¹Jehoahazⁱ was^j twenty-three years old when he became king, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal^k daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah. ³²He did what was evil in the Lord’s sight just as his ancestors had done.^{l 33}Pharaoh Neco imprisoned him at Riblah^m in the land of Hamathⁿ to keep him from reigning in Jerusalem, and he imposed on the land a fine of seventy-five hundred pounds^B of silver and seventy-five pounds^C of gold.

JUDAH’S KING JEHOIAKIM

³⁴Then^o Pharaoh Neco made Eliakim^p son of Josiah king in place of his father Josiah and changed Eliakim’s name to Jehoiakim.^q But Neco took Jehoahaz and went to Egypt, and he died there.^{r 35}So Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh, but at Pharaoh’s command he taxed the land to give it. He exacted the silver and the gold from the common people, each according to his assessment,^s to give it to Pharaoh Neco.
