*
Howbeit from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat ,
who made Israel to sin ,
Jehu departed not from after them ,
to wit ,
the golden calves that were in Bethel ,
and that were in Dan .
*
And the LORD said unto Jehu ,
Because thou hast done well in executing that which is right in mine eyes ,
and hast done unto the house of Ahab according to all that was in mine heart ,
thy children of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel .
*
But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD God of Israel with all his heart :
for he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam ,
which made Israel to sin .
*
In those days the LORD began to cut Israel short :
and Hazael smote them in all the coasts of Israel ;
*
From Jordan eastward ,
all the land of Gilead ,
the Gadites ,
and the Reubenites ,
and the Manassites ,
from Aroer ,
which is by the river Arnon ,
even Gilead and Bashan .
*
Now the rest of the acts of Jehu ,
and all that he did ,
and all his might ,
are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel ?
*
And Jehu slept with his fathers :
and they buried him in Samaria .
And Jehoahaz his son reigned in his stead .
*
And the time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty and eight years .
