2 Kings 15:19-20
191Pul, the king of Assyria, came against the land, and Menahem gave Pul a 2thousand talents of silver so that his hand might be with him to 3strengthen the 4kingdom 5under his rule.
20Then Menahem collected the money from Israel, from all the 6mighty men of wealth, from each man fifty shekels of silver to pay the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria returned and did not stay there in the land.
