This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint.

15:17 Menahem’s reign over Yisrael
17 In the thirty-ninth year of King Azaryah’s reign over Yehudah (Judah), Gadi’s son Menahem became king over Yisrael (Israel) and he reigned from Shomron (Samaria) for ten years. 18 He did what Yahweh had said was evil—he didn’t avoid the kinds of behaviour that had been done by Nevat’s son Yarov’am (Jeroboam) who had caused Yisrael to sin.
During his reign, 19 King Pul of Ashur (Assyria) attacked Yisrael, and Menahem gave Pul over thirty tonnes of silver, so he would support Menahem’s reign. 20 (Menahem had taxed all the wealthy families across Yisrael—fifty silver coins per adult male.) As a result, the Assyrian king cancelled his plans to attack and returned home.
21 Everything else that Menahem said and did is written in the book of the events of the kings of Yisrael. 22 Then Menahem died and was buried, and his son Pekahyah replaced him as king.
