17 And they came up H5927 into Judah, H3063 and brake H1234 into it, and carried away H7617 all the substance H7399 that was found H4672 in the king's H4428 house, H1004 and his sons H1121 also, and his wives; H802 so that there was never a son H1121 left H7604 him, save Jehoahaz, H3059 the youngest H6996 of his sons. H1121
And the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 made H4427 Ahaziah H274 his youngest H6996 son H1121 king H4427 in his stead: for the band of men H1416 that came H935 with the Arabians H6163 to the camp H4264 had slain H2026 all the eldest. H7223 So Ahaziah H274 the son H1121 of Jehoram H3088 king H4428 of Judah H3063 reigned. H4427

And Joash H3101 the king H4428 of Israel H3478 took H8610 Amaziah H558 king H4428 of Judah, H3063 the son H1121 of Joash, H3101 the son H1121 of Jehoahaz, H3059 at Bethshemesh, H1053 and brought H935 him to Jerusalem, H3389 and brake down H6555 the wall H2346 of Jerusalem H3389 from the gate H8179 of Ephraim H669 to the corner H6437 gate, H8179 four H702 hundred H3967 cubits.
