30 The Lord said to Jehu: Because you have done well what is right in my eyes, and have done to the house of Ahab all that was in my heart, your sons to the fourth generation shall sit upon the throne of Israel.
31 But Jehu was not careful to walk in the law of the Lord, the God of Israel, with all his heart, since he did not desist from the sins which Jeroboam had caused Israel to commit.
32 At that time the Lord began to dismember Israel. Hazael defeated the Israelites throughout their territory
33 east of the Jordan (all the land of Gilead, of the Gadites, Reubenites, and Manassites), from Aroer on the wadi Arnon up through Gilead and Bashan.
34 The rest of the acts of Jehu, with all that he did and all his valor, are recorded in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
35 Jehu rested with his ancestors and was buried in Samaria, and his son Jehoahaz succeeded him as king.
36 The length of Jehu’s reign over Israel was twenty-eight years in Samaria.
