Kings IV 14:3-13

³And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, but not as David his father: he did according to all things that his father Joas did.

⁴Only he removed not the high places: as yet the people sacrificed and burnt incense on the high places.

⁵And it came to pass when the kingdom was established in his hand, that he killed his servants that had slain the king his father.

⁶But he killed not the sons of those that had slain him; according as it is written in the book of the laws of Moses, as the Lord gave commandment, saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, and the children shall not be put to death for the fathers; but every one shall die for his own sins.

⁷He struck of Edom ten thousand in the valley of salt, and took the Rock in the war, and called its name Jethoel until this day.

⁸Then Amessias sent messengers to Joas son of Joachaz son of Ju king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look one another in the face.

⁹And Joas the king of Israel sent to Amessias king of Juda, saying, The thistle that was in Libanus sent to the cedar that was in Libanus, saying, Give my daughter to your son to wife: and the wild beasts of the field that were in Libanus passed by and trod down the thistle.

¹⁰You have struck and wounded Edom, and your heart has lifted you up: stay at home and glorify yourself; for therefore are you quarrelsome to your hurt? So both you will fall and Juda with you.

¹¹Nevertheless Amessias listened not: so Joas king of Israel went up, and he and Amessias king of Juda looked one another in the face in Baethsamys of Juda.

¹²And Juda was overthrown before Israel, and every man fled to his tent.

¹³And Joas king of Israel took Amessias the son of Joas the son of Ochozias, in Baethsamys; and he came to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, beginning at the gate of Ephraim as far as the gate of the corner, four hundred cubits.
