2 Chronicles 25:17-24
17Then AmaziahH558 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 took advice, and sentH7971 to JoashH3101, the sonH1121 of JehoahazH3059 the sonH1121 of JehuH3058, kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, ComeH1980, let us lookH7200 one another in the faceH6440. 18And JoashH3101 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 sentH7971 to AmaziahH558 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, sayingH559, The thistle that was in LebanonH3844 sentH7971 to the cedarH730 that was in LebanonH3844, sayingH559, GiveH5414 thy daughterH1323 to my sonH1121 to wifeH802: and there passedH5674 by a wild beast that was in LebanonH3844, and trod down the thistle. 19Thou sayest, Lo, thou hast smitten EdomH123; and thy heartH3820 lifteth thee up to boast: abide nowH6258 at home; whyH4100 shouldest thou meddle to thy hurt, that thou shouldest fallH5307, even thou, and JudahH3063 with thee?
20But AmaziahH558 would not hearH8085; for it was of GodH430, that he might deliver them into the handH3027 of their enemies, because they had soughtH1875 after the godsH430 of EdomH123. 21So JoashH3101 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 wentH5927 up; and he and AmaziahH558 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 lookedH7200 one another in the faceH6440 at Beth-shemeshH1053, which belongeth to JudahH3063. 22And JudahH3063 was put to the worse before IsraelH3478; and they fledH5127 every manH376 to his tentH168. 23And JoashH3101 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 took AmaziahH558 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, the sonH1121 of JoashH3101 the sonH1121 of JehoahazH3059, at Beth-shemeshH1053, and broughtH935 him to JerusalemH3389, and brake down the wallH2346 of JerusalemH3389 from the gateH8179 of EphraimH669 unto the corner gateH8179, fourH702 hundredH3967 cubitsH520. 24And he took all the goldH2091 and silverH3701, and all the vesselsH3627 that were foundH4672 in the houseH1004 of GodH430 with Obed-edomH5654, and the treasuresH214 of the king’sH4428 houseH1004, the hostages also, and returnedH7725 to SamariaH8111.
