2 Kings 12:18-20
Easy-to-Read Version
18 Joash[a] and his ancestors—Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, and Ahaziah—had all been kings of Judah. They had given many things to the Lord that were kept in his Temple. Joash gathered all these things and all the gold that was stored in the Temple and in his palace. He sent all this treasure to King Hazael of Aram, who then commanded his army to leave Jerusalem.

20 Joash’s officers made plans against him. They killed Joash at the house of Millo on the road that goes down to Silla.
