14 For Menahem the son of Gadi went up from aTirzah, came to Samaria, and struck Shallum the son of Jabesh in Samaria and killed him; and he reigned in his place.  
15 Now the rest of the acts of Shallum, and the conspiracy which he1 led, indeed they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.  
16 Then from Tirzah, Menahem attacked aTiphsah, all who were there, and its territory. Because they did not surrender, therefore he attacked it. All bthe women there who were with child he ripped open.  

Menahem Reigns in Israel

17 In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem the son of Gadi became king over Israel, and reigned ten years in Samaria.
18 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord; he did not depart all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin.
19 aPul king of Assyria came against the land; and Menahem gave Pul a thousand talents of silver, that his2 hand might be with him to bstrengthen the kingdom under his control.  
20 And Menahem aexacted the money from Israel, from all the very wealthy, from each man fifty shekels of silver, 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 acts of Menahem, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
22 So Menahem rested with his fathers. Then Pekahiah his son reigned in his place.
