2 Kings 15:8-12

8 anno tricesimo octavo Azariae regis Iudae regnavit Zaccharias filius Hieroboam super Israhel in Samaria sex mensibus

9 et fecit quod malum est coram Domino sicut fecerant patres eius non recessit a peccatis Hieroboam filii Nabath qui peccare fecit Israhel

10 coniuravit autem contra eum Sellum filius Iabes percussitque eum palam et interfecit regnavitque pro eo

11 reliqua autem verborum Zacchariae nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Israhel

12 ipse est sermo Domini quem locutus est ad Hieu dicens filii usque ad quartam generationem sedebunt de te super thronum Israhel factumque est ita
