Amaziah
the

@ He was
twenty

five

old
when he began to
reign

reigned
twenty

nine
years
in

name
was
Jehoaddan

strkjv@2Kings:14:3
@ And he
did
that which was
right
in the
sight
of the
LORD
,
yet
not like
David
his
father

did
according to all things as
Joash
his
father
did
.

were not taken
away

incense
on the high

@ And it came to pass, as soon as the
kingdom
was
confirmed
in his
hand

slew
his
servants
which had
slain
the
king
his
father
.
strkjv@2Kings:14:6
@ But the
children

murderers
he
slew
not: according unto that which is
written
in the
book
of the
law
of
Moses
, wherein the
LORD
commanded
,
saying
, The
fathers
shall not be put to
death
for the
children

children
be put to
death
for the
fathers
; but every
man
shall be put to
death
for his own
sin

slew

salt
ten

took
Selah
by
war

called
the
name

Joktheel
unto this

saying

thistle
that was in
Lebanon
sent
to the
cedar
that was in

saying
,
Give
thy
daughter
to my
son
to
wife

passed
by a
wild
beast
that was in
Lebanon

down
the
thistle

@ Thou hast
indeed
smitten
Edom

heart
hath lifted thee
up
:
glory
of this, and
tarry
at
home

meddle
to thy
hurt
, that thou shouldest
fall
, even thou, and
Judah
with thee?
strkjv@2Kings:14:11
@ But
Amaziah
would not
hear
. Therefore
Jehoash
king

Israel
went
up
; and he and
Amaziah
king
of
Judah
looked
one another in the
face
at
Bethshemesh
Beyth, which belongeth to
Judah
.
strkjv@2Kings:14:12

Judah
was put to the
worse
before
Israel

fled
every
man
to their
tents

Jehoash
king

took
Amaziah
king

Ahaziah

Bethshemesh
Beyth, and
came
to
