2 Kings 14:8-11

8ThenH227 AmaziahH558 sentH7971 messengersH4397 toH413 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 JehoashH3060 sonH1121 of JehoahazH3059, the sonH1121 of JehuH3058. “ComeH1980, let us meetH7200 face to faceH6440,” he saidH559.

9But JehoashH3060 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 repliedH7971 toH413 AmaziahH558 kingH4428 of JudahH3063: “A thistleH2336 in LebanonH3844 sentH7971 a message toH413 a cedarH730 in LebanonH3844, sayingH559, ‘GiveH5414 your daughterH1323 to my sonH1121 in marriageH802.’ Then a wildH7704 beastH2416 in LebanonH3844 came alongH5674 and trampledH7429 the thistleH2336. 10You have indeed defeatedH5221 EdomH123, and your heartH3820 has become proudH5375. GloryH3513 in that and stayH3427 at homeH1004. WhyH4100 should you stir upH1624 troubleH7451 so that you fallH5307—youH859 and JudahH3063 with youH5973?”

11But AmaziahH558 would notH3808 listenH8085, so JehoashH3060 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 advancedH5927. HeH1931 and KingH4428 AmaziahH558 of JudahH3063 faced each otherH7200H6440 at Beth-shemeshH1053 in JudahH3063.
