2 Chronicles 24:17

The Wickedness of Joash

16And Jehoiada was buried with the kings in the City of David, because he had done what was good in Israel for God and His temple.17After the death of Jehoiada, however, the officials of Judah came and paid homage to the king, and he listened to them.18They abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and idols. So wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this guilt of theirs.
