And his servants carried him in a chariot dead from Megiddo ,
and brought him to Jerusalem ,
and buried him in his own sepulchre .
And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah ,
and anointed him ,
and made him king in his father '
s stead .

Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign ;
and he reigned three months in Jerusalem .
And his mother '
s name was Hamutal ,
the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah .
*
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD ,
according to all that his fathers had done .
*
And Pharaohnechoh put him in bands at Riblah in the land of Hamath ,
that he might not reign in Jerusalem ;
and put the land to a tribute of an hundred talents of silver ,
and a talent of gold .

And Pharaohnechoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the room of Josiah his father ,
and turned his name to Jehoiakim ,
and took Jehoahaz away :
and he came to Egypt ,
and died there .
