His mother’s name was Jecoliah, who was from Jerusalem. 3 Azariah did what was right in the Lord’s sight(C) just as his father Amaziah had done. 4 Yet the high places were not taken away; the people continued sacrificing and burning incense on the high places.(D)

19 Pul[d](W) king of Assyria invaded the land, so Menahem gave Pul 75,000 pounds[e] of silver so that Pul would support him to strengthen his grip on the kingdom.(X) 20 Then Menahem exacted 20 ounces[f] of silver from each of the wealthy men of Israel to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria withdrew and did not stay there in the land.(Y)

30 Then Hoshea(AI) son of Elah organized a conspiracy against Pekah son of Remaliah. He attacked him, killed him,(AJ) and became king in his place in the twentieth year of Jotham son of Uzziah.

2 Reyes 15
Reina-Valera Antigua
15 EN el año veintisiete de Jeroboam, rey de Israel, comenzó á reinar Azarías hijo de Amasías rey de Judá.
2 Cuando comenzó á reinar era de dieciséis años, y cincuenta y dos años reinó en Jerusalem; el nombre de su madre fué Jecolía, de Jerusalem.
3 E hizo lo recto en ojos de Jehová, conforme á todas las cosas que su padre Amasías había hecho.
4 Con todo eso los altos no se quitaron; que el pueblo sacrificaba aún y quemaba perfumes en los altos.
5 Mas Jehová hirió al rey con lepra, y fué leproso hasta el día de su muerte, y habitó en casa separada, y Jotham hijo del rey tenía el cargo del palacio, gobernando al pueblo de la tierra.
6 Lo demás de los hechos de Azarías, y todas las cosas que hizo, ¿no está escrito en el libro de las crónicas de los reyes de Judá?
7 Y durmió Azarías con sus padres, y sepultáronlo con sus padres en la ciudad de David: y reinó en su lugar Jotham su hijo.
8 En el año treinta y ocho de Azarías rey de Judá, reinó Zachârías hijo de Jeroboam sobre Israel seis meses.
9 E hizo lo malo en ojos de Jehová, como habían hecho sus padres: no se apartó de los pecados de Jeroboam hijo de Nabat, el que hizo pecar á Israel.
10 Contra él se conjuró Sallum hijo de Jabes, y lo hirió en presencia de su pueblo, y matólo, y reinó en su lugar.
11 Lo demás de los hechos de Zachârías, he aquí está escrito en el libro de las crónicas de los reyes de Israel.
12 Y esta fué la palabra de Jehová que había hablado á Jehú, diciendo: Tus hijos hasta la cuarta generación se sentarán en el trono de Israel. Y fué así.
13 Sallum hijo de Jabes comenzó á reinar en el año treinta y nueve de Uzzía rey de Judá, y reinó el tiempo de un mes en Samaria;
14 Pues subió Manahem hijo de Gadi, de Thirsa, y vino á Samaria, é hirió á Sallum hijo de Jabes en Samaria, y matólo, y reinó en su lugar.
15 Lo demás de los hechos de Sallum, y su conjuración con que conspiró, he aquí está escrito en el libro de las crónicas de los reyes de Israel.
16 Entonces hirió Manahem á Tiphsa, y á todos los que estaban en ella, y también sus términos desde Thirsa; é hirióla porque no le habían abierto; y abrió á todas sus preñadas.
17 En el año treinta y nueve de Azarías rey de Judá, reinó Manahem hijo de Gadi sobre Israel diez años, en Samaria.
18 E hizo lo malo en ojos de Jehová: no se apartó en todo su tiempo de los pecados de Jeroboam hijo de Nabat, el que hizo pecar á Israel.
19 Y vino Phul rey de Asiria á la tierra; y dió Manahem á Phul mil talentos de plata porque le ayudara á confirmarse en el reino.
20 E impuso Manahem este dinero sobre Israel, sobre todos los poderosos y opulentos: de cada uno cincuenta siclos de plata, para dar al rey de Asiria, y el rey de Asiria se volvió, y no se detuvo allí en la tierra.
21 Lo demás de los hechos de Manahem, y todas las cosas que hizo, ¿no está escrito en el libro de las crónicas de los reyes de Israel?
22 Y durmió Manahem con sus padres, y reinó en su lugar Pekaía su hijo.
23 En el año cincuenta de Azarías rey de Judá, reinó Pekaía hijo de Manahem sobre Israel en Samaria, dos años.
24 E hizo lo malo en ojos de Jehová: no se apartó de los pecados de Jeroboam hijo de Nabat, el que hizo pecar á Israel.
25 Y conspiró contra él Peka hijo de Remalías, capitán suyo, é hiriólo en Samaria, en el palacio de la casa real, en compañía de Argob y de Ariph, y con cincuenta hombres de los hijos de los Galaaditas; y matólo, y reinó en su lugar.
26 Lo demás de los hechos de Pekaía, y todas las cosas que hizo, he aquí está escrito en el libro de las crónicas de los reyes de Israel.
27 En el año cincuenta y dos de Azarías rey de Judá, reinó Peka hijo de Remalías sobre Israel en Samaria; y reinó veinte años.
28 E hizo lo malo en ojos de Jehová; no se apartó de los pecados de Jeroboam hijo de Nabat, el que hizo pecar á Israel.
29 En los días de Peka rey de Israel, vino Tiglath-pileser rey de los Asirios, y tomó á Ahión, Abel-beth-maachâ, y Janoa, y Cedes, y Asor, y Galaad, y Galilea, y toda la tierra de Nephtalí; y trasportólos á Asiria.
30 Y Oseas hijo de Ela hizo conjuración contra Peka hijo de Remalías, é hiriólo, y matólo, y reinó en su lugar, á los veinte años de Jotham hijo de Uzzía.
31 Lo demás de los hechos de Peka, y todo lo que hizo, he aquí está escrito en el libro de las crónicas de los reyes de Israel.
32 En el segundo año de Peka hijo de Remalías rey de Israel, comenzó á reinar Jotham hijo de Uzzía rey de Judá.
33 Cuando comenzó á reinar era de veinticinco años, y reinó dieciséis años en Jerusalem. El nombre de su madre fué Jerusa hija de Sadoc.
34 Y él hizo lo recto en ojos de Jehová; hizo conforme á todas las cosas que había hecho su padre Uzzía.
35 Con todo eso los altos no fueron quitados; que el pueblo sacrificaba aún, y quemaba perfumes en los altos. Edificó él la puerta más alta de la casa de Jehová.
36 Lo demás de los hechos de Jotham, y todas las cosas que hizo, ¿no está escrito en el libro de las crónicas de los reyes de Judá?
37 En aquel tiempo comenzó Jehová á enviar contra Judá á Resín rey de Siria, y á Peka hijo de Remalías.
38 Y durmió Jotham con sus padres, y fué sepultado con sus padres en la ciudad de David su padre: y reinó en su lugar Achâz su hijo.
2 Kings 15
New International Version
Azariah King of Judah(A)
15 In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Azariah[a](B) son of Amaziah king of Judah began to reign. 2 He was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-two years. His mother’s name was Jekoliah; she was from Jerusalem. 3 He did what was right(C) in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father Amaziah had done. 4 The high places, however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there.
5 The Lord afflicted(D) the king with leprosy[b] until the day he died, and he lived in a separate house.[c](E) Jotham(F) the king’s son had charge of the palace(G) and governed the people of the land.
6 As for the other events of Azariah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 7 Azariah rested(H) with his ancestors and was buried near them in the City of David. And Jotham(I) his son succeeded him as king.
Zechariah King of Israel
8 In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah king of Judah, Zechariah son of Jeroboam became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned six months. 9 He did evil(J) in the eyes of the Lord, as his predecessors had done. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit.
10 Shallum son of Jabesh conspired against Zechariah. He attacked him in front of the people,[d] assassinated(K) him and succeeded him as king. 11 The other events of Zechariah’s reign are written in the book of the annals(L) of the kings of Israel. 12 So the word of the Lord spoken to Jehu was fulfilled:(M) “Your descendants will sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.”[e]
Shallum King of Israel
13 Shallum son of Jabesh became king in the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah king of Judah, and he reigned in Samaria(N) one month. 14 Then Menahem son of Gadi went from Tirzah(O) up to Samaria. He attacked Shallum son of Jabesh in Samaria, assassinated(P) him and succeeded him as king.
15 The other events of Shallum’s reign, and the conspiracy he led, are written in the book of the annals(Q) of the kings of Israel.
16 At that time Menahem, starting out from Tirzah, attacked Tiphsah(R) and everyone in the city and its vicinity, because they refused to open(S) their gates. He sacked Tiphsah and ripped open all the pregnant women.
Menahem King of Israel
17 In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah king of Judah, Menahem son of Gadi became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria ten years. 18 He did evil(T) in the eyes of the Lord. During his entire reign he did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit.
19 Then Pul[f](U) king of Assyria invaded the land, and Menahem gave him a thousand talents[g] of silver to gain his support and strengthen his own hold on the kingdom. 20 Menahem exacted this money from Israel. Every wealthy person had to contribute fifty shekels[h] of silver to be given to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria withdrew(V) and stayed in the land no longer.
21 As for the other events of Menahem’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel? 22 Menahem rested with his ancestors. And Pekahiah his son succeeded him as king.
Pekahiah King of Israel
23 In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekahiah son of Menahem became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned two years. 24 Pekahiah did evil(W) in the eyes of the Lord. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit. 25 One of his chief officers, Pekah(X) son of Remaliah, conspired against him. Taking fifty men of Gilead with him, he assassinated(Y) Pekahiah, along with Argob and Arieh, in the citadel of the royal palace at Samaria. So Pekah killed Pekahiah and succeeded him as king.
26 The other events of Pekahiah’s reign, and all he did, are written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel.
Pekah King of Israel
27 In the fifty-second year of Azariah king of Judah, Pekah(Z) son of Remaliah(AA) became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned twenty years. 28 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit.
29 In the time of Pekah king of Israel, Tiglath-Pileser(AB) king of Assyria came and took Ijon,(AC) Abel Beth Maakah, Janoah, Kedesh and Hazor. He took Gilead and Galilee, including all the land of Naphtali,(AD) and deported(AE) the people to Assyria. 30 Then Hoshea(AF) son of Elah conspired against Pekah son of Remaliah. He attacked and assassinated(AG) him, and then succeeded him as king in the twentieth year of Jotham son of Uzziah.
31 As for the other events of Pekah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals(AH) of the kings of Israel?
Jotham King of Judah(AI)
32 In the second year of Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel, Jotham(AJ) son of Uzziah king of Judah began to reign. 33 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother’s name was Jerusha daughter of Zadok. 34 He did what was right(AK) in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father Uzziah had done. 35 The high places,(AL) however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there. Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate(AM) of the temple of the Lord.
36 As for the other events of Jotham’s reign, and what he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 37 (In those days the Lord began to send Rezin(AN) king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah against Judah.) 38 Jotham rested with his ancestors and was buried with them in the City of David, the city of his father. And Ahaz his son succeeded him as king.

Svenska 1917
15 I Jerobeams, Israels konungs, tjugusjunde regeringsår blev Asarja, Amasjas son, konung i Juda.
2 Han var sexton år gammal, när han blev konung, och han regerade femtiotvå år i Jerusalem. Hans moder hette Jekolja, från Jerusalem.
3 Han gjorde vad rätt var i HERRENS ögon, alldeles såsom hans fader Amasja hade gjort.
4 Dock blevo offerhöjderna icke avskaffade, utan folket fortfor att frambära offer och tända offereld på höjderna.
5 Men HERREN hemsökte konungen, så att han blev spetälsk för hela sitt liv; och han bodde sedan i ett särskilt hus. Jotam, konungens son, förestod då hans hus och dömde folket i landet.
6 Vad nu mer är att säga om Asarja och om allt vad han gjorde, det finnes upptecknat i Juda konungars krönika.
7 Och Asarja gick till vila hos sina fäder, och man begrov honom hos hans fäder i Davids stad. Och hans son Jotam blev konung efter honom.
8 I Asarjas, Juda konungs, trettioåttonde regeringsår blev Sakarja, Jerobeams son, konung över Israel i Samaria och regerade i sex månader.
9 Han gjorde vad ont var i HERRENS ögon, såsom hans fäder hade gjort; han avstod icke från de Jerobeams, Nebats sons, synder genom vilka denne hade kommit Israel att synda.
10 Och Sallum, Jabes' son, anstiftade en sammansvärjning mot honom och slog honom till döds i folkets åsyn, och blev så konung i hans ställe
11 Vad nu mer är att säga om Sakarja, det finnes upptecknat i Israels konungars krönika.
12 Så, uppfylldes det ord som HERREN, hade talat till Jehu, när han sade: »Dina söner till fjärde led skola sitta på Israels tron.» Det skedde så.
13 Sallum, Jabes' son, blev konung i Ussias, Juda konungs, trettionionde regeringsår, och han regerade en månads tid i Samaria.
14 Men då drog Menahem, Gadis son, upp från Tirsa och kom till Samaria och slog Sallum, Jabes' son, till döds i Samaria, och blev så konung i hans ställe
15 Vad nu mer är att säga om Sallum och om den sammansvärjning han anstiftade, det finnes upptecknat i Israels konungars krönika.
16 Vid den tiden förhärjade Menahem Tifsa med allt vad därinne var, så ock hela dess område, från Tirsa; ty staden hade icke öppnat portarna, därför härjade han den, och alla dess havande kvinnor lät han upprista.
17 I Asarjas, Juda konungs, trettionionde regeringsår blev Menahem, Gadis son, konung över Israel och regerade i tio år, i Samaria.
18 Han gjorde vad ont var i HERRENS ögon; han avstod icke, så länge han levde, från de Jerobeams Nebats sons, synder genom vilka denne hade kommit Israel att synda.
19 Och Pul, konungen i Assyrien, föll in i landet; då gav Menahem åt Pul tusen talenter silver, för att han skulle understödja honom och befästa konungadömet i hans hand.
20 Och de penningar som Menahem skulle giva åt konungen i Assyrien tog han ut genom att lägga skatt på alla rika män i Israel, en skatt av femtio siklar silver på var och en. Så vände då konungen i Assyrien tillbaka och stannade icke där i landet.
21 Vad nu mer är att säga om Menahem och om allt vad han gjorde, det finnes upptecknat i Israels konungars krönika.
22 Och Menahem gick till vila hos sina fäder. Och hans son Pekaja blev konung efter honom.
23 I Asarjas, Juda konungs, femtionde regeringsår blev Pekaja, Menahems son, konung över Israel i Samaria och regerade i två år.
24 Han gjorde vad ont var i HERRENS ögon; han avstod icke från de Jerobeams, Nebats sons, synder genom vilka denne hade kommit Israel att synda.
25 Och Peka, Remaljas son, hans livkämpe, anstiftade en sammansvärjning mot honom och dräpte honom i Samaria, i konungshusets palatsbyggnad, han tillika med Argob och Arje; därvid hade han med sig femtio gileaditer. Så dödade han honom och blev konung i hans ställe.
26 Vad nu mer är att säga om Pekaja och om allt vad han gjorde, det finnes upptecknat i Israels konungars krönika.
27 I Asarjas, Juda konungs, femtioandra regeringsår blev Peka, Remaljas son, konung över Israel i Samaria och regerade i tjugu år.
28 Han gjorde vad ont var i HERRENS Ögon; han avstod icke från de Jerobeams; Nebats sons, synder genom vilka denne hade kommit Israel att synda.
29 I Pekas, Israels konungs, tid kom Tiglat-Pileser, konungen i Assyrien, och intog Ijon, Abel-Bet-Maaka, Janoa, Kedes, Hasor, Gilead och Galileen, hela Naftali land, och förde folket bort till Assyrien.
30 Och Hosea, Elas son, anstiftade en sammansvärjning mot Peka, Remaljas son, och slog honom till döds och blev så konung i hans ställe, i Jotams, Ussias sons, tjugonde regeringsår.
31 Vad nu mer är att säga om Peka och om allt vad han gjorde, det finnes upptecknat i Israels konungars krönika.
32 I Pekas, Remaljas sons, Israels konungs, andra regeringsår blev Jotam, Ussias son, konung i Juda.
33 Han var tjugufem år gammal, när han blev konung, och han regerade sexton år i Jerusalem. Hans moder hette Jerusa, Sadoks dotter.
34 Han gjorde vad rätt var i HERRENS ögon; han gjorde alldeles såsom hans fader Ussia hade gjort.
35 Dock blevo offerhöjderna icke avskaffade, utan folket fortfor att frambära offer och tända offereld på höjderna. Han byggde Övre porten till HERRENS hus.
36 Vad nu mer är att säga om Jotam, om vad han gjorde, det finnes upptecknat i Juda konungars krönika.
37 Vid den tiden begynte HERREN att låta Juda hemsökas av Resin, konungen i Aram, och av Peka, Remaljas son.
38 Och Jotam gick till vila hos sina fäder och blev begraven hos sina fäder i sin fader Davids stad. Och hans son Ahas blev konung efter honom.
