2 Kings 18:7-12

7And the LORDH3068 wasH1961 withH5973 Hezekiah, and he prosperedH7919 whereverH3605 he wentH3318. He rebelledH4775 against the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 and refusedH3808 to serve himH5647. 8HeH1931 defeatedH5221 the PhilistinesH6430 asH5704 far as GazaH5804 and its bordersH1366, fromH4026 watchtowerH5341 toH5704 fortifiedH4013 cityH5892.

In the fourthH7243 yearH8141 of Hezekiah’sH2396 reignH4428, whichH1931 was the seventhH7637 yearH8141 of the reignH4428 of HosheaH1954 sonH1121 of ElahH425 over IsraelH3478, ShalmaneserH8022 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 marchedH5927 againstH5921 SamariaH8111 and besiegedH6696 itH5921. 10And at the endH7097 of threeH7969 yearsH8141, the Assyrians captured itH3920.

So SamariaH8111 was capturedH3920 in the sixthH8337 yearH8141 of HezekiahH2396, whichH1931 was the ninthH8672 yearH8141 of HosheaH1954 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478. 11The kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 exiledH1540 the IsraelitesH3478 to AssyriaH804 and settled themH5148 in HalahH2477, in GozanH1470 by the HaborH2249 RiverH5104, and in the citiesH5892 of the MedesH4074. 12This happened becauseH5921 they did notH3808 listenH8085 to the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, but violatedH5674 His covenantH1285—allH3605 thatH834 MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of the LORDH3068 had commandedH6680—and would neitherH3808 listenH8085 norH3808 obeyH6213.
