2 Chronicles 25:27-28
25:27 From the time Amaziah turned from following the Lord, conspirators plotted against him in Jerusalem, 1 so he fled to Lachish. But they sent assassins after him 2 and they killed him there.
25:28 His body was carried back by horses, 3 and he was buried in Jerusalem with his ancestors 4 in the City of David. 5
1 tn Heb “and they conspired against him [with] a conspiracy in Jerusalem.”
2 tn Heb “and they sent after him to Lachish.”
3 tn Heb “and they carried him on horses.”
4 tn Heb “fathers.”
5 tc The Hebrew text has “Judah,” but some medieval mss read “David,” as does the parallel passage in 2 Kgs 14:20.
sn The phrase the City of David refers here to the fortress of Zion in Jerusalem, not to Bethlehem. See 2 Sam 5:7.
