2 Chronicles 28:16-21
16At thatH1931 timeH6256 KingH4428 AhazH271 sentH7971 for helpH5826 fromH5921 the kingH44281 of AssyriaH804. 17The EdomitesH130 had againH5750 comeH935 and attackedH5221 JudahH3063 and carried awayH7617 captivesH7628. 18The PhilistinesH6430 had also raidedH6584 the citiesH5892 of the foothillsH82192 and the NegevH5045 of JudahH3063, capturingH3920 and occupyingH3427H8033 Beth-shemeshH1053, AijalonH357, andH853 GederothH1450, as well asH853 SocoH7755, TimnahH8553, andH853 GimzoH1579 with their villagesH1323. 19ForH3588 the LORDH3068 humbledH3665 JudahH3063 becauseH5668 AhazH271 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478H35883 had thrown off restraintH6544 in JudahH3063 and had been most unfaithfulH4603H4604 to the LORDH3068.
20Then Tiglath-pileserH84074 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 cameH935 toH5921 Ahaz but afflictedH6887 him rather thanH3808 strengthening himH2388. 21AlthoughH3588 AhazH271 had taken a portionH2505 from the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, fromH853 the royalH4428 palaceH1004, and from the princesH8269 and had presentedH5414 it to the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, it did notH3808 helpH5833 him.
