1In the twenty and seventh year of Jeroboam king of Yashar'el (Israel) began Azariah son of Amaziah king of Yahudah (Judah) to reign.
2Sixteen years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned two and fifty years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jecholiah of Jerusalem.
3And he did that which was right in the sight of Yahuah (LORD), according to all that his father Amaziah had done;
4Save that the high places were not removed: the people sacrificed and burnt incense still on the high places.
5And Yahuah (LORD) smote the king, so that he was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a several house. And Jotham the king’s son was over the house, judging the people of the land.
6And the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yahudah (Judah)?
7So Azariah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.
8In the thirty and eighth year of Azariah king of Yahudah (Judah) did Zachariah the son of Jeroboam reign over Yashar'el (Israel) in Samaria six months.
9And he did that which was evil in the sight of Yahuah (LORD), as his fathers had done: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Yashar'el (Israel) to sin.
10And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him, and smote him before the people, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.
11And the rest of the acts of Zachariah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yashar'el (Israel).
12This was the word of Yahuah (LORD) which he spake unto Jehu, saying, Your sons shall sit on the throne of Yashar'el (Israel) unto the fourth generation. And so it came to pass.
13Shallum the son of Jabesh began to reign in the nine and thirtieth year of Uzziah king of Yahudah (Judah); and he reigned a full month in Samaria.
14For Menahem the son of Gadi went up from Tirzah, and came to Samaria, and smote Shallum the son of Jabesh in Samaria, and slew him, and reigned in his stead.
15And the rest of the acts of Shallum, and his conspiracy which he made, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yashar'el (Israel).
16Then Menahem smote Tiphsah, and all that were therein, and the coasts thereof from Tirzah: because they opened not to him, therefore he smote it; and all the women therein that were with child he ripped up.
17In the nine and thirtieth year of Azariah king of Yahudah (Judah) began Menahem the son of Gadi to reign over Yashar'el (Israel), and reigned ten years in Samaria.
18And he did that which was evil in the sight of Yahuah (LORD): he departed not all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Yashar'el (Israel) to sin.
19And Pul the king of Assyria came against the land: and Menahem gave Pul a thousand talents of silver, that his hand might be with him to confirm the kingdom in his hand.
20And Menahem exacted the money of Yashar'el (Israel), even of all the mighty men of wealth, of each man fifty shekels of silver, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back, and stayed not there in the land.
21And the rest of the acts of Menahem, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yashar'el (Israel)?
22And Menahem slept with his fathers; and Pekahiah his son reigned in his stead.
23In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Yahudah (Judah) Pekahiah the son of Menahem began to reign over Yashar'el (Israel) in Samaria, and reigned two years.
24And he did that which was evil in the sight of Yahuah (LORD): he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Yashar'el (Israel) to sin.
25But Pekah the son of Remaliah, a captain of his, conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria, in the palace of the king’s house, with Argob and Arieh, and with him fifty men of the Gileadites: and he killed him, and reigned in his room.
26And the rest of the acts of Pekahiah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yashar'el (Israel).
27In the two and fiftieth year of Azariah king of Yahudah (Judah) Pekah the son of Remaliah began to reign over Yashar'el (Israel) in Samaria, and reigned twenty years.
28And he did that which was evil in the sight of Yahuah (LORD): he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Yashar'el (Israel) to sin.
29In the days of Pekah king of Yashar'el (Israel) came Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, and took Ijon, and Abel-beth-maachah, and Janoah, and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Gilead, and Galilee, all the land of Naphtali, and carried them captive to Assyria.
30And Hoshea the son of Elah made a conspiracy against Pekah the son of Remaliah, and smote him, and slew him, and reigned in his stead, in the twentieth year of Jotham the son of Uzziah.
31And the rest of the acts of Pekah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yashar'el (Israel).
32In the second year of Pekah the son of Remaliah king of Yashar'el (Israel) began Jotham the son of Uzziah king of Yahudah (Judah) to reign.
33Five and twenty years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.
34And he did that which was right in the sight of Yahuah (LORD): he did according to all that his father Uzziah had done.
35Howbeit the high places were not removed: the people sacrificed and burned incense still in the high places. He built the higher gate of the house of Yahuah (LORD).
36Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yahudah (Judah)?
37In those days Yahuah (LORD) began to send against Yahudah (Judah) Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah.
38And Jotham slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
