20 He did what the Lord considered evil, as his father Manasseh had done.
21 He lived like his father in every way and worshiped and prayed to the idols his father had worshiped.
22 He abandoned the Lord God of his ancestors and didn’t live the Lord’s way.
23 Amon’s officials plotted against him and killed him in his palace.
24 Then the people of the land killed everyone who had plotted against King Amon. They made his son Josiah king in his place.
25 Isn’t everything else about Amon—the things he did—written in the official record of the kings of Judah?
26 He was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza. His son Josiah succeeded him as king.
