*
In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah king of Judah ,
Zechariah the son of Jeroboam reigned over Israel in Samaria ,
six months .
*
And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah ,
according as his fathers had done :
he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat ,
who made Israel to sin .
*
And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him ,
and smote him before the people ,
and slew him ,
and reigned in his stead .
*
And the rest of the acts of Zechariah ,
behold ,
they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel .
*
This was the word of Jehovah which he spoke to Jehu saying ,
Thy sons shall sit upon the throne of Israel unto the fourth [
generation ].
And so it came to pass .
