(733 BCE) 2Kgs.17.1-4בִּשְׁנַת שְׁתֵּים עֶשְׂרֵה לְאָחָז מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה מָלַךְ הֹושֵׁעַ בֶּן־אֵלָה בְשֹׁמְרֹון עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵל תֵּשַׁע שָׁנִים׃
2And he did what was evil in the sight of the LORD, yet not as the kings of Israel who were before him. וַיַּעַשׂ הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה רַק לֹא כְּמַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר הָיוּ לְפָנָיו׃
3Against him came up Shalmane'ser king of Assyria; and Hoshe'a became his vassal, and paid him tribute. עָלָיו עָלָה שַׁלְמַנְאֶסֶר מֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר וַיְהִי־לֹו הֹושֵׁעַ עֶבֶד וַיָּשֶׁב לֹו מִנְחָה׃
4But the king of Assyria found treachery in Hoshe'a; for he had sent messengers to So, king of Egypt, and offered no tribute to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year; therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison. וַיִּמְצָא מֶלֶךְ־אַשּׁוּר בְּהֹושֵׁעַ קֶשֶׁר אֲשֶׁר שָׁלַח מַלְאָכִים אֶל־סֹוא מֶלֶךְ־מִצְרַיִם וְלֹא־הֶעֱלָה מִנְחָה לְמֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר כְּשָׁנָה בְשָׁנָה וַיַּעַצְרֵהוּ מֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר וַיַּאַסְרֵהוּ בֵּית כֶּלֶא׃
