2 Kings 14:3-5

The Voice

³ Amaziah did what was good in the Eternal’s eyes, but not to the extent that his forefather David had. Amaziah was a lot more like his father, Joash, than he was like David, for he was not as devoted to the Lord as David was. ⁴ But the high places were not destroyed. They remained standing, and everyone continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there.

⁵ As soon as Amaziah inherited the throne, he crushed all the servants who participated in the assassination of his father, King Joash.
