15
But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died; one hundred thirty years old was he when he died.
16
They buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.
17
Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king listened to them.
18
They forsook the house of Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherim and the idols: and wrath came on Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.
19
Yet he sent prophets to them, to bring them again to Yahweh; and they testified against them: but they would not give ear.
20
The Spirit of God came on Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest; and he stood above the people, and said to them, Thus says God, Why disobey you the commandments of Yahweh, so that you can`t prosper? because you have forsaken Yahweh, he has also forsaken you.
21
They conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of Yahweh.
22
Thus Joash the king didn`t remember the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. When he died, he said, Yahweh look on it, and require it.
