Amaziah was a son of twenty five years when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty nine years in Jerusalem; and the name of his mother was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

And he did the right in the eyes of Jehovah; only, not with a perfect heart.

And it happened, when the kingdom had been made strong to him, he killed his servants, those who had struck the king, his father.

But he did not kill their sons, but did as is written in the Law, in the Book of Moses, whom Jehovah commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the sons, and the sons shall not die for the fathers; but they each shall die for his own sin.
