2 Kings 15:10-12

New International Reader's Version

¹⁰ Shallum made evil plans against Zechariah. He attacked Zechariah in front of the people and killed him. Then he became the next king after him. Shallum was the son of Jabesh. ¹¹ The other events of the rule of Zechariah are written down. They are written in the official records of the kings of Israel. ¹² What happened to Zechariah is what the Lord said would happen. He had spoken that message to Jehu. The Lord had said, “Your sons after you will sit on the throne of Israel. They will rule until the time of your children’s grandchildren.” (2 Kings 10:30)
