And Menahem slept with his fathers; and Pekahiah his son reigned in his stead.
בִּשְׁנַת חֲמִשִּׁים שָׁנָה לַֽעֲזַרְיָה מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה מָלַךְ פְּקַֽחְיָה בֶן-מְנַחֵם עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּשֹֽׁמְרוֹן שְׁנָתָֽיִם׃
In the fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekahiah the son of Menahem began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned two years.
וְיֶתֶר דִּבְרֵי פְקַחְיָה וְכָל-אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה הִנָּם כְּתוּבִים עַל-סֵפֶר דִּבְרֵי הַיָּמִים לְמַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
