The LORD said to Yehu, Because you have done well in executing that which is right in my eyes, [and] have done to the house of Ach'av according to all that was in my heart, your sons of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Yisra'el.
Now the rest of the acts of Yarov`am, and all that he did, and his might, how he warred, and how he recovered Damascus, and Chamat, [which had belonged] to Yehudah, for Yisra'el, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yisra'el?
This was the word of the LORD which he spoke to Yehu, saying, Your sons to the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Yisra'el. So it came to pass.
