Amon's Wicked Reign and Assassination

2 Chronicles 33:21-25

33
Chapter 33
21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. 22 He did evil in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father Manasseh had done. He sacrificed to and served all the carved images that his father Manasseh had made. 23 And he did not humble himself before the LORD, as his father Manasseh had humbled himself, for Ammon multiplied guilt. 24 His servants conspired against him and killed him in his house. 25 Then the people of the land struck down all the conspirators against King Amon, and the people of the land made his son Josiah king in his place.
