Menahem exacted the money of Israel, even of all the mighty men of wealth, of each man fifty shekels of silver, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back, and didn't stay there in the land.
UMenahem wayibiza isilivere leyo kumaSirayeli, kumadoda onke azizityebi, ukuba anike ukumkani waseAsiriya: yangamashumi omahlanu eeshekele zesilivere kumntu emnye. Wabuya ke ukumkani waseAsiriya; akahlala ezweni elo.
