Now concerning his sons, and the greatness of the burdens laid upon him, and the repairing of the house of God, behold, they are written in the story of the book of the kings. And Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.(2 Crónicas 24:27)

Amaziah was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.(2 Crónicas 25:1)

And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, but not with a perfect heart.(2 Crónicas 25:2)

But he slew not their children, but did as it is written in the law in the book of Moses, where the LORD commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers, but every man shall die for his own sin.(2 Crónicas 25:4)

Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and made them captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, according to the houses of their fathers, throughout all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and above, and found them three hundred thousand choice men, able to go forth to war, that could handle spear and shield.(2 Crónicas 25:5)

He hired also an hundred thousand mighty men of valor out of Israel for an hundred talents of silver.(2 Crónicas 25:6)
