2 Chronicles 22:1-3
International Standard Version
Ahaziah Succeeds Jehoram(A)
22 The residents of Jerusalem made Jehoram’s[a] son Ahaziah[b] king in his place after the raiding party that had invaded the city with the Arabs had killed all of the older sons. That’s how Jehoram’s son Ahaziah became king of Judah. 2 Ahaziah was 22[c] years old when he became king, and he reigned for one year in Jerusalem. His mother was Athaliah, Omri’s granddaughter.
3 He followed the example[d] of Ahab’s dynasty because his mother gave him evil counsel.
