Book 12 : 2 KINGS - Chapter 015
015:001
Sixteen 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
015:002
And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD,
according to all that his father Amaziah had done
015:003
Save that the high places were not removed: the people
sacrificed and burnt incense still on the high places
015:004
And the 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
015:005
And 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
Judah
015:006
So 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
015:007
In the thirty and eighth year of Azariah king of Judah did
Zachariah the son of Jeroboam reign over Israel in Samaria six
months
015:008
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as
his fathers had done: he departed not from the sins of
Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin
015:009
And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him, and smote
him before the people, and slew him, and reigned in his stead
015:010
And the rest of the acts of Zachariah, behold, they are
written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel
015:011
This was the word of the LORD which he spake unto Jehu,
saying, Thy sons shall sit on the throne of Israel unto the
fourth generation. And so it came to pass
015:012
Shallum the son of Jabesh began to reign in the nine and
thirtieth year of Uzziah king of Judah; and he reigned a full
month in Samaria
015:013
For 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
015:014
And 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 Israel
015:015
Then 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
015:016
In the nine and thirtieth year of Azariah king of Judah began
Menahem the son of Gadi to reign over Israel, and reigned ten
years in Samaria
015:017
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he
departed not all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of
Nebat, who made Israel to sin
015:018
And 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
015:019
And Menahem exacted the money of 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
015:020
And 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
Israel
015:021
And Menahem slept with his fathers; and Pekahiah his son
reigned in his stead
015:022
In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekahiah the son
of Menahem began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned
two years
015:023
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he
departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who
made Israel to sin
015:024
But 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
015:025
And 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 Israel
015:026
In the two and fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekah
the son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and
reigned twenty years
015:027
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he
departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who
made Israel to sin
015:028
In the days of Pekah king of Israel came Tiglathpileser king
of Assyria, and took Ijon, and Abelbethmaachah, and Janoah,
and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Gilead, and Galilee, all the land
of Naphtali, and carried them captive to Assyria
015:029
And 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
015:030
And 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 Israel
015:031
In the second year of Pekah the son of Remaliah king of Israel
began Jotham the son of Uzziah king of Judah to reign
015:032
Five 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
015:033
And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD: he
did according to all that his father Uzziah had done
015:034
Howbeit 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 the LORD
015:035
Now 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
Judah
015:036
In those days the LORD began to send against Judah Rezin the
king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah
015:037
And 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
