*
In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash ,
king of Judah ,
Jeroboam the son of Joash ,
king of Israel ,
became king in Samaria ,
and reigned forty-one years .
*
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD ;
he did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat ,
who had made Israel sin .
*
He restored the territory of Israel from the entrance of Hamath to the Sea of the Arabah ,
according to the word of the LORD God of Israel ,
which He had spoken through His servant Jonah the son of Amittai ,
the prophet who was from Gath Hepher .
*
For the LORD saw that the affliction of Israel was very bitter ;
and whether bond or free ,
there was no helper for Israel .
*
And the LORD did not say that He would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven ;
but He saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash .
*
Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam ,
and all that he did--his might ,
how he made war ,
and how he recaptured for Israel ,
from Damascus and Hamath ,
what had belonged to Judah--are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel ?
*
So Jeroboam rested with his fathers ,
the kings of Israel .
Then Zechariah his son reigned in his place .
