2 Kings 15:10-31

10Then ShallumH7967 the sonH1121 of JabeshH3003 conspiredH7194 againstH5921 him, and 1struckH5221 him in the presenceH6904 of the peopleH5971 and 2killedH4191 him, and reignedH4427 inH8478 his placeH8478. 11Now as for the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of ZechariahH2148, beholdH2009 they are writtenH3789 in the BookH5612 of the ChroniclesH1697H3117 of the KingsH4428 of IsraelH3478. 12ThisH1931 is 3the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 whichH834 He spokeH1696 to JehuH3058, sayingH559, “Your sonsH1121 to the fourthH7243 generation shall sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478.” And soH3651 it was.

13ShallumH7967 the sonH1121 of JabeshH3003 becameH4427 kingH4427 in the 4thirty-ninthH7970H8672 yearH8141 of UzziahH5818 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and he reignedH4427 for 5one monthH3391 in 6SamariaH8111. 14Then MenahemH4505 the sonH1121 of GadiH1424 wentH5927 upH5927 from 7TirzahH8656 and cameH935 to SamariaH8111, and struckH5221 ShallumH7967 sonH1121 of JabeshH3003 in SamariaH8111, and killedH4191 him and becameH4427 kingH4427 inH8478 his placeH8478. 15Now as for the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of ShallumH7967 and his conspiracyH7195 whichH834 he formedH7194, beholdH2009, they are writtenH3789 in the BookH5612 of the ChroniclesH1697H3117 of the KingsH4428 of IsraelH3478. 16ThenH227 MenahemH4505 attackedH5221 TiphsahH8607 and allH3605 whoH834 were in it and its bordersH1366 from TirzahH8656, becauseH3588 they did not openH6605 upH6605 to him; so he attackedH5221 it and rippedH1234 upH1234 8allH3605 its womenH2030 who were pregnantH2030.

17In the 9thirty-ninthH7970H8672 yearH8141 of AzariahH5838 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, MenahemH4505 the sonH1121 of GadiH1424 becameH4427 kingH4427 overH5921 IsraelH3478 and reigned for tenH6235 yearsH8141 in SamariaH8111. 18He didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068; for allH3605 his daysH3117 he did not desistH5493 from the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, into whichH834 he misledH2398 IsraelH3478.

1910PulH6322, the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, cameH935 againstH5921 the landH776, and MenahemH4505 gaveH5414 PulH6322 a 11thousandH505 talentsH3603 of silverH3701 so that his handH3027 might be with him to 12strengthenH2388 the 13kingdomH4467 14under his ruleH3027. 20Then MenahemH4505 collectedH3318 the moneyH3701 from IsraelH3478, from allH3605 the 15mightyH1368 menH1368 of wealthH2428, from eachH259 manH376 fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701 to payH5414 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804. So the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 returnedH7725 and did not stayH5975 thereH8033 in the landH776. 21Now as for the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of MenahemH4505 and allH3605 that he didH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the BookH5612 of the ChroniclesH1697H3117 of the KingsH4428 of IsraelH3478? 22And MenahemH4505 16layH7901 downH7901 with his fathersH1, and his sonH1121 PekahiahH6494 becameH4427 kingH4427 inH8478 his placeH8478.

23In 17the fiftiethH2572 yearH8141 of AzariahH5838 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, PekahiahH6494 the sonH1121 of MenahemH4505 becameH4427 kingH4427 overH5921 IsraelH3478 in SamariaH8111, and reigned for twoH8147 yearsH8141. 24He didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068; he did not desistH5493 from the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 sonH1121 of NebatH5028, into whichH834 he misledH2398 IsraelH3478. 25Then PekahH6492 the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425, his officerH7991, conspiredH7194 againstH5921 him and struckH5221 him in SamariaH8111, in 18the castleH759 of the king’sH4428 houseH1004 with ArgobH709 and AriehH745; and with him were fiftyH2572 menH376 of the GileaditesH1121H1569, and he killedH4191 him and becameH4427 kingH4427 inH8478 his placeH8478. 26Now as for the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of PekahiahH6494 and everythingH3605 that he didH6213, beholdH2009, they are writtenH3789 in the BookH5612 of the ChroniclesH1697H3117 of the KingsH4428 of IsraelH3478.

27In 19the fifty-secondH2572 yearH8141 of AzariahH5838 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, 20PekahH6492 the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425 becameH4427 kingH4427 overH5921 IsraelH3478 in SamariaH8111, and he reigned for twentyH6242 yearsH8141. 28He didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068; he did not desistH5493 from the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 sonH1121 of NebatH5028, into whichH834 he misledH2398 IsraelH3478.

29In the daysH3117 of PekahH6492 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, 2122Tiglath-pileserH8407 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 cameH935 and tookH3947 IjonH5859, Abel-beth-maacahH62, JanoahH3239, KedeshH6943, HazorH2674, GileadH1568, and GalileeH1552, allH3605 the landH776 of NaphtaliH5321; and 23he ledH1540 24their populations intoH1540 exileH1540 to AssyriaH804. 30And HosheaH1954 the sonH1121 of ElahH425 formedH7194 a conspiracyH7195 againstH5921 PekahH6492 the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425, and struckH5221 him and putH4191 him toH4191 deathH4191, and he becameH4427 kingH4427 inH8478 his placeH8478, in the twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of JothamH3147 the sonH1121 of UzziahH5818. 31Now as for the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of PekahH6492 and allH3605 that he didH6213, beholdH2009, they are writtenH3789 in the BookH5612 of the ChroniclesH1697H3117 of the KingsH4428 of IsraelH3478.
