— 2 Kings 14:3, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, yet not like David his father: he did according to all things as Joash his father did.”
“And he did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, yet not like David his father: he did according to all that Joash his father had done. ”
“He did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, yet not like David his father: he did according to all that Joash his father had done.”
“He did what the LORD approved, but not like David his father. He followed the example of his father Joash.”
“And he did that which was right before the Lord, but yet not like David his father. He did according to all things that Joas his father, did:”
“He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, though not like David his father; he did as Joash his father had done.”
“And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, yet not like David his father: he did according to all things as Joash his father did.”
In the second year of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the king of Israel: Amaziah, the son of Jehoash, reigned as king of Judah.
He was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign. And he reigned for twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jehoaddin from Jerusalem.
And he did what is right before the Lord, yet truly, not like David, his father. He acted in accord with all the things that his father Jehoash did,
except for this alone: he did not take away the high places. For still the people were immolating, and burning incense, in the high places.
And when he had obtained the kingdom, he struck down those of his servants who had killed his father, the king.
But the sons of those who had been killed he did not put to death, in accord with what was written in the book of the law of Moses, just as the Lord instructed, saying: “The fathers shall not die for the sons, and the sons shall not die for the fathers. Instead, each one shall die for his own sin.”
