2 Kings 21:18–26

¹⁸And Manasses slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Oza: and Amon, his son, reigned in his stead.

¹⁹Two and twenty years old was Amon when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Messalemeth, the daughter of Harus, of Jeteba.

²⁰And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, as Manasses, his father, had done.

²¹And he walked in all the way in which his father had walked: and he served the abominations which his father had served, and he adored them.

²²And forsook the Lord, the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.

²³And his servants plotted against him, and slew the king in his own house.

²⁴But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon: and made Josias, his son, their king in his stead.

²⁵But the rest of the acts of Amon, which he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?

²⁶And they buried him in his sepulchre, in the garden of Oza: and his son, Josias, reigned in his stead.
