Good News Translation

King Ahaziah of Israel

⁵¹ In the seventeenth year of the reign of King Jehoshaphat of Judah, Ahaziah son of Ahab became king of Israel, and he ruled in Samaria for two years. ⁵² He sinned against the Lord, following the wicked example of his father Ahab, his mother Jezebel, and King Jeroboam, who had led Israel into sin. ⁵³ He worshiped and served Baal, and like his father before him, he aroused the anger of the Lord, the God of Israel.
