2 Chronicles

2 Chronicles 33:21–23

²¹Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years. ²²And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done.

Amon served and sacrificed to all the idols that his father Manasseh had made, ²³but he did not humble himself before the LORD as his father Manasseh had done; instead, Amon increased his guilt.
