2 Kings 16:7-13
7So AhazH271 sentH7971 messengersH4397 toH413 Tiglath-pileserH8407 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, sayingH559, “IH589 am your servantH5650 and your sonH1121. Come upH5927 and save meH3467 from the handsH3709 of the kingsH4428 of AramH758H3709 and IsraelH3478, who are rising upH6965 against meH5921.”
8AhazH271 also tookH3947 the silverH3701 and goldH2091 foundH4672 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 and in the treasuriesH214 of the king’sH4428 palaceH1004, and he sent itH7971 as a giftH7810 to the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804. 9So the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 respondedH8085 to himH413, marched upH5927H4428H804 toH413 DamascusH1834, and captured itH8610. He took its peopleH1540 to Kir as captivesH7024 andH853 put RezinH7526 to deathH4191.
10Then KingH4428 AhazH271 wentH1980 to DamascusH1834 to meetH7122 Tiglath-pileserH8407 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804. On seeingH7200 the altarH4196 in DamascusH1834, KingH4428 AhazH271 sentH7971H413 UriahH223 the priestH3548 a modelH1823 of the altarH4196 and complete plansH8403H3605 for its constructionH4639. 11And UriahH223 the priestH3548 builtH1129 the altarH4196 according to allH3605 the instructionsH834 KingH4428 AhazH271 had sentH7971 from DamascusH1834, and he completed itH6213 beforeH5704 KingH4428 AhazH271 returnedH935.
12When the kingH4428 came backH935 from DamascusH1834 and sawH7200 the altarH4196, heH4428H5921 approachedH7126 it and presented offeringsH5927 on itH5921. 13He offeredH6999 his burnt offeringH5930 and his grain offeringH4503, poured outH5258 his drink offeringH5262, and splatteredH2236 the bloodH1818 of his peace offeringsH8002 onH5921 the altarH4196.
