Joash Killed by His Servants
King Joash of Judah took the sacred gifts and gold from the temple and the royal palace and sent them to Hazael, king of Aram, to avert an attack on Jerusalem. Later, his own servants formed a conspiracy and struck him down at Beth-Millo, on the road going down to Silla.
Andra Kungaboken 12,19-21
19So Jehoash king of Judah took all the sacred objects that his fathers Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, and Ahaziah, the kings of Judah, had dedicated, together with his own dedicated gifts and all the gold found in the treasuries of the house of the LORD and of the royal palace, and he sent them to Hazael king of Aram, who then withdrew from Jerusalem.
וַיִּקַּ֞ח יְהוֹאָ֣שׁ מֶֽלֶךְ־יְהוּדָ֗ה אֵ֣ת כָּל־הַקֳּדָשִׁ֡ים אֲשֶׁר־הִקְדִּ֣ישׁוּ יְהוֹשָׁפָ֣ט וִיהוֹרָם֩ וַאֲחַזְיָ֨הוּ אֲבֹתָ֜יו מַלְכֵ֤י יְהוּדָה֙ וְאֶת־קֳדָשָׁ֔יו וְאֵ֣ת כָּל־הַזָּהָ֗ב הַנִּמְצָ֛א בְּאֹצְר֥וֹת בֵּית־יְהוָ֖ה וּבֵ֣ית הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ וַיִּשְׁלַ֗ח לַֽחֲזָאֵל֙ מֶ֣לֶךְ אֲרָ֔ם וַיַּ֖עַל מֵעַ֥ל יְרוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם׃
20As for the rest of the acts of Joash and all that he did, they are written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah.
וְיֶ֛תֶר דִּבְרֵ֥י יוֹאָ֖שׁ וְכָל־אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשָׂ֑ה הֲלוֹא־הֵ֣ם כְּתוּבִ֗ים עַל־סֵ֛פֶר דִּבְרֵ֥י הַיָּמִ֖ים לְמַלְכֵ֥י יְהוּדָֽה׃
21His servants rose up, formed a conspiracy, and struck Joash down at Beth Millo, on the road down to Silla.
וַיָּקֻ֥מוּ עֲבָדָ֖יו וַיִּקְשְׁרֽוּ־קָ֑שֶׁר וַיַּכּוּ֙ אֶת־יוֹאָ֔שׁ בֵּ֥ית מִלֹּ֖א הַיּוֹרֵ֥ד סִלָּֽא׃
