He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.

He did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, yet not like David his father. He did everything that Joash, his father, had done.

But the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense at the high places.

Yet he did not put the sons of the murderers to death; instead, he acted according to what was written in the Book of the Law Moses, as Yahweh had commanded, saying, “The fathers must not be put to death for their children, neither must the children be put to death for their parents. Instead, every person must be put to death for his own sin.”

But Jehoash the king of Israel sent messengers back to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “A thistle that was in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar in Lebanon, saying, 'Give your daughter to my son for a wife,' but a wild beast in Lebanon walked by and trampled down the thistle.
10 Inge Amaziah, kom kutangla mwet Edom, ac kom arulana insefulatak kac. Lela kom in falkin wo ouiya nu sum, ac mutana in acn sum an. Efu ku kom orek purakak su ma ac kunauskomla ac mwet lom an?”
You have indeed attacked Edom, and your heart has lifted you up. Take pride in your victory, but stay at home, for why should you cause yourself trouble and fall, both you and Judah with you?”
