ESV 2 Kings 13:9
The name of the king is incorrectly typed: "So Jehoahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria, and Joash his son reigned in his place." Should be Jehoash, Jehoahaz's son. As it says correctly in the following verse.

Verse 12 is also incorrect.

As the ESV footnote says, "Jehoash is an alternate spelling of Joash (son of Jehoahaz) as in verses 9, 12-14; also verse 25."
Logos doesn't translate the ESV and you'll see the same text in print ESV's or anywhere else the ESV is available.

Apparently, even with a stele available, his name was problematical:
Jehoash son of Jehoahaz. In the Tell al-Rimah stele, he is called Yaʾasu Samerīnāya, “Joash (of the land) of Samaria”; see S. Page, Iraq 30 (1968), 142, line 8. (Alternate readings of the transcription of the name have been suggested: Yaʾusu [so W. F. Albright in “Prolegomenon” to Burney, Notes (New York: Ktav, 1970) 35], and Yuʾasu [so, A. Malamat, BASOR 204 (1971), 37–39.])
