2 Kings 13:1-9

1In the twenty-third year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu became king over Israel at Samaria, and he reigned seventeen years. 2He did evil in the sight of the Lord, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, 1with which he made Israel sin; he did not turn from them. 32So the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and He gave them continually into the hand of 3Hazael king of Aram, and into the hand of 4Ben-hadad the son of Hazael. 4Then 5Jehoahaz entreated the favor of the Lord, and the Lord listened to him; for 6He saw the oppression of Israel, how the king of Aram oppressed them. 5The Lord gave Israel a 78deliverer, so that they 9escaped from under the hand of the Arameans; and the sons of Israel lived in their tents as formerly. 6Nevertheless they did not turn away from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, 10with which he made Israel sin, but walked in 11them; and 12the Asherah also remained standing in Samaria. 7For he left to Jehoahaz of the 13army not more than fifty horsemen and ten chariots and 10,000 footmen, for the king of Aram had destroyed them and 14made them like the dust at threshing. 8Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did and his might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel? 9And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria; and Joash his son became king in his place.
