2 Kings 14:6-22 But the children of those murderers he slew not, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, where the LORD commanded saying, "The fathers shall not die for the children's cause, nor the children for the deeds of their fathers: But every man shall be slain for his own sin."

MSTC⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ But the children of those murderers he slew not, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, where the LORD commanded saying, "The fathers shall not die for the children's cause, nor the children for the deeds of their fathers: But every man shall be slain for his own sin." ⁷ And he slew of the Edomites in the salt valley, ten thousand, and took the town Sela with strength of battle, and called the name of it Joktheel ever after. ⁸ After that, Amaziah sent messengers to Joash the son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu king of Israel, saying, "Come, let us see each other." ⁹ But Joash king of Israel sent again to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, "A thistle in Lebanon sent to a cypress tree in Lebanon, saying, 'Give thy daughter to my son to wife.' But the wild beasts in Lebanon went and trod down the thistle. ¹⁰ Because thou hast beaten the Edomites, therefore thine heart riseth. Be glorious: but tarry at home. For what needest thou to provoke to mischief — that thou shouldest be overthrown and Judah with thee?" ¹¹ But Amaziah would not hear. And so Joash king of Israel went up, and he and Amaziah king of Judah saw either other at Bethshemesh in Judah. ¹² And Judah was put to the worse before Israel, and they fled every man to his tent. ¹³ And Joash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, son of Jehoash son of Ahaziah, at Bethshemesh. And then he went to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits. ¹⁴ And he took all the gold and silver and all the vessels that were found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasure of the king's house, and hostages thereto: and then returned to Samaria again. ¹⁵ The rest of the acts of Joash which he did, and his power, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, are written in the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel. ¹⁶ And Joash laid him to rest with his fathers and was buried at Samaria among the kings of Israel: and Jeroboam his son reigned in his room. ¹⁷ Amaziah the son of Jehoash king of Judah lived after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel, fifteen years. ¹⁸ And the remnant of the deeds of Amaziah, are written in the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah. ¹⁹ And they conspired great treason against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. And they went after him to Lachish and slew him there. ²⁰ And they brought him on a horse and he was buried at Jerusalem with his fathers in the city of David. ²¹ And all the people of Judah took Uzziah, which was sixteen years old, and made him king for his father Amaziah. ²² And he built Elath and brought it again to Judah, after that the king was laid to rest with his fathers.
