New Testament

2 Kings 21:21-26 New International Version (NIV)

21. He followed completely the ways of his father, worshiping the idols his father had worshiped, and bowing down to them.

22. He forsook the Lord, the God of his ancestors, and did not walk in obedience to him.

23. Amon’s officials conspired against him and assassinated the king in his palace.

24. Then the people of the land killed all who had plotted against King Amon, and they made Josiah his son king in his place.

25. As for the other events of Amon’s reign, and what he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah?

26. He was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza. And Josiah his son succeeded him as king.
