2 Kings 15:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹ Zechariah did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord. He did what the kings of Israel before him had done. He didn’t turn away from the sins Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, had committed. Jeroboam had caused Israel to commit those same sins.

¹⁰ Shallum made evil plans against Zechariah. He attacked Zechariah in front of the people and killed him. Then he became the next king after him. Shallum was the son of Jabesh. ¹¹ The other events of the rule of Zechariah are written down. They are written in the official records of the kings of Israel.
