2 Kings 15:14-22

¹⁴ and go up doth Menahem son of Gadi from Tirzah and cometh in to Samaria, and smiteth Shallum son of Jabesh in Samaria, and putteth him to death, and reigneth in his stead. ¹⁵ And the rest of the matters of Shallum, and his conspiracy that he made, lo, they are written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel. ¹⁶ Then doth Menahem smite Tiphsah, and all who 'are' in it, and its borders from Tirzah, for it opened not 'to him', and he smiteth 'it', all its pregnant women he hath ripped up.

The Reign of Menahem

¹⁷ In the thirty and ninth year of Azariah king of Judah reigned hath Menahem son of Gadi over Israel—ten years in Samaria. ¹⁸ And he doth the evil in the eyes of Jehovah, he hath turned not aside from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat that he caused Israel to sin, all his days. ¹⁹ Pul king of Asshur hath come against the land, and Menahem giveth to Pul a thousand talents of silver, for his hand being with him to strengthen the kingdom in his hand. ²⁰ And Menahem bringeth out the silver 'from' Israel, 'from' all the mighty men of wealth, to give to the king of Asshur, fifty shekels of silver for each one, and the king of Asshur turneth back and hath not stayed there in the land. ²¹ And the rest of the matters of Menahem, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel? ²² And Menahem lieth with his fathers, and reign doth Pekahiah his son in his stead.
