3. He did right in the eyes of Yahweh, only not as David his ancestor; as all which Jehoash his father had done, he did.
4. Only the high places were not removed; the people were still sacrificing and offering incense on the high places.
5. It happened that when the kingdom was firmly in his hand, he killed his servants who had killed his father the king.
6. But the sons of the killers he did not kill, as it is written in the scroll of the law of Moses which Yahweh had commanded, saying, “Fathers should not be killed because of children, and children should not be killed because of fathers; but a man should die because of his own sin.”
7. He also killed ten thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt, and he seized Sela in the battle, and he called its name Jokteel, until this day.
