    22 King Joash did not remember the kindness that Jehoiada, Zechariah's father, had shown him but killed his son. As Zechariah was dying, he said, 'May the Lord see this and call you to account.'

    23 At the turn of the year, the Aramean army came up against Joash. They invaded Judah and Jerusalem, and they destroyed all the leaders of the people, sending all the plunder to the king of Damascus.

    24 Though the Aramean army had come with only a small force of men, the Lord delivered into their hands a very large army because Judah had forsaken the Lord, the God of their ancestors. So they executed judgment against Joash.

    25 When the Arameans withdrew, leaving Joash severely wounded, his officials conspired against him for murdering the sons of Jehoiada the priest. They killed him on his bed, and he died. He was buried in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
