For you have forsaken Yahweh, so he will forsake you.'" Then they conspired against him and stoned him [with] stones at the command of the king in the courtyard of the house of Yahweh. So King Joash did not remember the loyal love that Jehoiada had shown to him, and he killed his son. And as he was dying he said, "May Yahweh see and avenge!"
