Amon’s servants conspired against him and killed the king in his palace.

Manasseh passed away and was buried in his palace garden, the garden of Uzzah, and his son Amon replaced him as king.

Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned for two years in Jerusalem. His mother was Meshullemeth, the daughter of Haruz, from Jotbah.

The people of the land executed all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they made his son Josiah king in his place.

The rest of Amon’s accomplishments are recorded in the scroll called the Annals of the Kings of Judah.
