19 Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, ruling in Jerusalem for two years; his mother's name was Meshullemeth, the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
20 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Manasseh his father had done.
21 He went in all the ways of his father, being a servant and worshipper of the false gods to which his father had been a servant;
22 Turning away from the Lord, the God of his fathers, and not walking in his ways.
23 And the servants of Amon made a secret design against him, and put the king to death in his house.
