²⁵And Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, liveth after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, fifteen years; ²⁶and the rest of the matters of Amaziah, the first and the last, lo, are they not written on the books of the kings of Judah and Israel? ²⁷And from the time that Amaziah hath turned aside from after Jehovah—they make a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fleeth to Lachish, and they send after him to Lachish, and put him to death there, ²⁸and lift him up on the horses, and bury him with his fathers in the city of Judah.

Chapter 26

¹And all the people of Judah take Uzziah (and he is a son of sixteen years), and cause him to reign instead of his father Amaziah. ²He hath built Eloth, and restoreth it to Judah after the king’s lying with his fathers.
