14 Pois subiu Menaém, filho de Gadi, de Tirsa, e veio a Samaria, e feriu Salum, filho de Jabes, em Samaria, e o matou, e reinou em seu lugar.

15 Os demais dos feitos de Salum, e sua conspiração com que conspirou, eis que estão escritos no livro das crônicas dos reis de Israel.

16 Então feriu Menaém a Tifsa, e a todos os que estavam nela, e também seus termos desde Tirsa; e feriu-a porque não lhe haviam aberto; e fendeu o ventre de todas as suas grávidas.

17 No ano trinta e nove de Azarias, rei de Judá, reinou Menaém, filho de Gadi, sobre Israel, por dez anos, em Samaria.
