Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign; he reigned three months in Jerusalem.
The people of the land took Jehoahaz son of Josiah and made him king to succeed his father in Jerusalem.
Then the king of Egypt deposed him in Jerusalem and laid on the land a tribute of one hundred talents of silver and one talent of gold.
Alas for you, O land, when your king is a child and your princes feast in the morning!
And I will make youths their princes, and children shall rule over them.
