*
And when they had finished it ,
they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada ,
whereof were made vessels for the house of the LORD ,
even vessels to minister ,
and to offer withal ,
and spoons ,
and vessels of gold and silver .
And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada .
*
But Jehoiada waxed old ,
and was full of days when he died ;
an hundred and thirty years old was he when he died .
*
And they buried him in the city of David among the kings ,
because he had done good in Israel Yisra #
el #,
both toward God ,
and toward his house .
*
Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah ,
and made obeisance to the king .
Then the king hearkened unto them .
*
And they left the house of the LORD God of their fathers ,
and served groves and idols :
and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their trespass .
*
Yet he sent prophets to them ,
to bring them again unto the LORD ;
and they testified against them :
but they would not give ear .
*
And the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest ,
which stood above the people ,
and said unto them ,
Thus saith God ,
Why transgress ye the commandments of the LORD ,
that ye cannot prosper ?
because ye have forsaken the LORD ,
he hath also forsaken you .
*
And they conspired against him ,
and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of the LORD .
*
Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him ,
but slew his son .
And when he died ,
he said ,
The LORD look upon it ,
and require it .
