12:013:020 And Elisha died, and they buried him.  And the bands of the
           Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.

12:013:021 And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold,
           they spied a band of men; and they cast the man into the
           sepulchre of Elisha:  and when the man was let down, and
           touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his
           feet.

12:013:022 But Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of
           Jehoahaz.

12:013:023 And the lord was gracious unto them, and had compassion on
           them, and had respect unto them, because of his covenant with
           Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither
           cast he them from his presence as yet.

12:013:024 So Hazael king of Syria died; and Benhadad his son reigned in
           his stead.

12:013:025 And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of
           Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities, which he had taken out
           of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war.  Three times did
           Joash beat him, and recovered the cities of Israel.

12:014:001 In the second year of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel
           reigned Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah.

12:014:002 He was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and
           reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem.  And his mother’s
           name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

12:014:003 And he did that which was right in the sight of the lord, yet
           not like David his father:  he did according to all things as
           Joash his father did.

12:014:004 Howbeit the high places were not taken away:  as yet the people
           did sacrifice and burnt incense on the high places.

12:014:005 And it came to pass, as soon as the kingdom was confirmed in
           his hand, that he slew his servants which had slain the king
           his father.

12:014:006 But the children of the murderers he slew not:  according unto
           that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein
           the lord commanded, saying, The fathers shall not be put to
           death for the children, nor the children be put to death for
           the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own
           sin.

12:014:007 He slew of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand, and took
           Selah by war, and called the name of it Joktheel unto this
           day.

12:014:008 Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz
           son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look one
           another in the face.
