with which he made Israel to sin.
015:025 Pekah the son of Remaliah, his captain, conspired against him,
and struck him in Samaria, in the castle of the king's house,
with Argob and Arieh; and with him were fifty men of the Gileadites:
and he killed him, and reigned in his place.
015:026 Now the rest of the acts of Pekahiah, and all that he did,
behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles
of the kings of Israel.
015:027 In the two and fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekah
the son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria,
[and reigned] twenty years.
015:028 He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh:
