2 Kings 14:1

1. Amaziah son of Joash began to rule over Judah in the second year of the reign of King Jehoash of Israel.
2. Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother was Jehoaddin, from Jerusalem.
3. Amaziah did what was pleasing in the LORD's sight, but not like his ancestor David. Instead, he followed the example of his father, Joash.
4. Amaziah did not destroy the pagan shrines, where the people offered sacrifices and burned incense.
5. When Amaziah was well established as king, he executed the men who had assassinated his father.
