25 No ano doze de Jeorão filho de Acabe rei de Israel, começou a reinar Acazias filho de Jeorão rei de Judá.

26 De vinte e dois anos era Acazias quando começou a reinar, e reinou um ano em Jerusalém. O nome de sua mãe foi Atalia filha de Onri rei de Israel.

27 E andou no caminho da casa de Acabe, e fez o que era mau aos olhos do SENHOR, como a casa de Acabe: porque era genro da casa de Acabe.
