Old Testament

2 Kings 12:17-21
Hazael Attacks Jerusalem
17Then Hazael king of Aram came up and attacked Gath and captured it. Hazael turned to go up against Jerusalem. 18So Jehoash king of Judah took all the sacred articles which his fathers Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, and Ahaziah, kings of Judah, had dedicated, as well as the sacred articles that he himself had given and all the gold which was found in the treasuries of the House of the Lord and in the king's palace, and he sent them to Hazael king of Aram. So Hazael left Jerusalem.
The Wickedness and Death of Jehoash
19As for the rest of the acts of Jehoash[] and all the things he did, are they not written in the annals of the kings of Judah? 20His servants conspired against Jehoash and killed him at Beth Millo, along the road down to Silla. 21His servants Jozabad[] son of Shimath and Jehozabad son of Shomer struck him down, and he died. They buried him with his fathers in the City of David. Then his son Amaziah became king in his place.
