*
In the thirty eighth year of Azariah the king of Judah ,
Zechariah the son of Jeroboam reigned over Israel ,
in Samaria ,
six months .
*
And he did the evil in the eyes of Jehovah ,
as his fathers did ;
he did not turn aside from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat ,
who caused Israel to sin .
*
And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him and struck him before the people ,
and killed him ,
and reigned in his place .
*
And the rest of the acts of Zechariah ,
behold ,
they are written in the Book of the Matters of the Days of the Kings of Israel .
*
This was the word of Jehovah that He spoke to Jehu ,
saying ,
Your son of the fourth generation shall sit to you on the throne of Israel ;
and it was so .
