Menahem Reigns in Israel
17
In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem the son of Gadi began to reign over Israel, and he reigned ten years in Samaria.
18
And he did what was evil in the sight of the LORD. He did not depart all his days from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he made Israel to sin.
19
1Pula the king of Assyria came against the land, and Menahem gave 2Pul a thousand talentsb of silver, that he might help him 3to confirm his hold on the royal power.
20
Menahem exacted the money from Israel, that is, from all the wealthy men, fifty shekelsc of silver from every man, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back and did not stay there in the land.
21
Now the rest of the deeds of Menahem and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
22
And Menahem slept with his fathers, and Pekahiah his son reigned in his place.
