2 Kings 16:5-7
5Then 1Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to wage war; and they besieged Ahaz, 2but could not 3overcome him. 6At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered 4Elath for Aram, and cleared the Judeans out of 5Elath entirely; and the 6Arameans came to Elath and have lived there to this day.
77So Ahaz sent messengers to 8Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son; come up and deliver me from the 9hand of the king of Aram and from the 10hand of the king of Israel, who are rising up against me.”
