Shallum Reigns in Israel

13 Shallum the son of Jabesh became king in the thirty-ninth year of [a]Uzziah king of Judah; and he reigned a full month in Samaria. 14 For Menahem the son of Gadi went up from (A)Tirzah, came to Samaria, and struck Shallum the son of Jabesh in Samaria and killed him; and he reigned in his place.

15 Now the rest of the acts of Shallum, and the conspiracy which he [b]led, indeed they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
