Menahem Reigns over Israel
17 In the (A)thirty-ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem son of Gadi became king over Israel and reigned ten years in Samaria. 18 And he did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh; he did not depart all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he made Israel sin.
19 (B)Pul, king of Assyria, came against the land, and Menahem gave Pul one thousand [a]talents of silver so that his hand might be with him to (C)strengthen the kingdom in his hand.
