2 Chronicles 24:25

Death of Joash

23 So it happened in the spring of the year that ^athe army of Syria came up against him; and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the leaders of the people from among the people, and sent all their¹ spoil to the king of Damascus.

24 For the army of the Syrians ^acame with a small company of men; but the Lord ^bdelivered a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers. So they ^cexecuted judgment against Joash.

25 And when they had withdrawn from him (for they left him severely wounded), ^ahis own servants conspired against him because of the blood of the¹ sons of Jehoiada the priest, and killed him on his bed. So he died. And they buried him in the City of David, but they did not bury him in the tombs of the kings.

26 These are the ones who conspired against him:¹ Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.

27 Now concerning his sons, and ^athe many oracles about him, and the repairing of the house of God, indeed they are written in the¹ annals of the book of the kings. ^bThen Amaziah his son reigned in his place.
