2 Chronicles 24:17-22

Now after
<0310>
the death
<04194>
of Jehoiada
<03077>
came
<0935> (8804)
the princes
<08269>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and made obeisance
<07812> (8691)
to the king
<04428>_.
Then the king
<04428>
hearkened
<08085> (8804)
unto them.
And they left
<05800> (8799)
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of their fathers
<01>_,
and served
<05647> (8799)
groves
<0842>
and idols
<06091>_:
and wrath
<07110>
came upon Judah
<03063>
and Jerusalem
<03389>
for this their trespass
<0819>_.
Yet he sent
<07971> (8799)
prophets
<05030>
to them, to bring them again
<07725> (8687)
unto the LORD
<03068>_;
and they testified
<05749> (8686)
against them: but they would not give ear
<0238> (8689)_.
And the Spirit
<07307>
of God
<0430>
came
<03847> (8804)
upon Zechariah
<02148>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>
the priest
<03548>_,
which stood
<05975> (8799)
above the people
<05971>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
God
<0430>_,
Why transgress
<05674> (8802)
ye the commandments
<04687>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
that ye cannot prosper
<06743> (8686)_?
because ye have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
he hath also forsaken
<05800> (8799)
you. {came...: Heb. clothed}
And they conspired
<07194> (8799)
against him, and stoned
<07275> (8799)
him with stones
<068>
at the commandment
<04687>
of the king
<04428>
in the court
<02691>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
Thus Joash
<03101>
the king
<04428>
remembered
<02142> (8804)
not the kindness
<02617>
which Jehoiada
<03077>
his father
<01>
had done
<06213> (8804)
to him, but slew
<02026> (8799)
his son
<01121>_.
And when he died
<04194>_,
he said
<0559> (8804)_,
The LORD
<03068>
look
<07200> (8799)
upon [it], and require
<01875> (8799)
[it].
