25Then his officerH7991, PekahH6492 sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425, conspiredH7194 against himH5921 along withH854 ArgobH709H854, AriehH745, andH5973 fiftyH2572 menH376 ofH1121 GileadH1569.

26As for the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of PekahiahH6494, along with allH3605 his accomplishmentsH834H6213, they are indeedH2009 writtenH3789 inH5921 the BookH5612 of the ChroniclesH1697H3117 of the KingsH4428 of IsraelH3478.

27In the fifty-secondH2572H8147 yearH8141 of Azariah’sH5838 reignH4428 over JudahH3063, PekahH6492 sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425 became kingH4427 ofH5921 IsraelH3478, and he reigned in SamariaH8111 twentyH6242 yearsH8141. 28And he didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 and did notH3808 turn awayH5493 fromH4480 the sins thatH2403 JeroboamH3379 sonH1121 of NebatH5028 had caused IsraelH3478 to commitH2398.

29In the daysH3117 of PekahH6492 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, Tiglath-pileserH8407 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 cameH935 and capturedH3947 IjonH5859, Abel-beth-maacahH59H1038, JanoahH3239, KedeshH6943, HazorH2674, GileadH1568, and GalileeH1551, including allH3605 the landH776 of NaphtaliH5321, and he took the people as captivesH1540 to AssyriaH804.
