2 Chronicles 28:5-18

5Therefore 1the LordH3068 his GodH430 handedH5414H3027 him overH5414 to the kingH4428 of AramH758; and they 2defeatedH5221 him and carriedH7617 from him a greatH1419 number of captivesH7633, and broughtH935 them to DamascusH1834. And he was alsoH1571 handedH5414H3027 overH5414 to the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, who struckH5221 him with heavyH1419 casualtiesH4347. 6For 3PekahH6492 the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425 killedH2026 120,000H3967H6242H505 in JudahH3063 in oneH259 dayH3117, allH3605 valiantH2428 menH1121, because they had abandonedH5800 the LordH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1. 7And ZichriH2147, a mightyH1368 manH1368 of EphraimH669, killedH2026 MaaseiahH4641 the king’sH4428 sonH1121, AzrikamH5840 the rulerH5057 of the houseH1004, and ElkanahH511 the secondH4932 to the kingH4428.

84The sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 ledH7617 awayH7617 captiveH7617 twoH3967 hundredH3967 thousandH505 of 5their relativesH251, womenH802, sonsH1121, and daughtersH1323; and they alsoH1571 6tookH962 a greatH7227 dealH7227 of spoilsH7998 from them, and broughtH935 the spoilsH7998 to SamariaH8111. 9But a prophetH5030 of the LordH3068 was thereH8033, whose nameH8034 was OdedH5752; and 7he wentH3318 outH3318 to meetH6440 the armyH6635 which cameH935 to SamariaH8111 and saidH559 to them, “BeholdH2009, because the LordH3068, the GodH430 of your fathersH1, 8was angryH2534 with JudahH3063, He has handedH5414H3027 them overH5414 to you, and you have killedH2026 them in a rageH2197 9which has evenH5704 reachedH5060 heavenH8064. 10NowH6258 you are proposingH559 to 10subjugateH3533 the peopleH1121 of JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389 as maleH5650 and femaleH8198 slavesH8198H5650 for yourselves. Are you not, howeverH7534 guiltyH5973H819 yourselvesH864 of offensesH819 against the LordH3068 your GodH430? 11NowH6258 then, listenH8085 to me and returnH7725 the captivesH7633 11whomH834 you capturedH7617 from your brothersH251, 12for the burningH2740 angerH639 of the LordH3068 is againstH5921 you.” 12Then someH376 of the leadingH7218 menH376 of the sonsH1121 of EphraimH669--AzariahH5838 the sonH1121 of JohananH3076, BerechiahH1296 the sonH1121 of MeshillemothH4919, JehizkiahH3169 the sonH1121 of ShallumH7967, and AmasaH6021 the sonH1121 of HadlaiH2311--roseH6965 upH6965 againstH5921 those who were comingH935 from the battleH6635, 13and saidH559 to them, “You must not bringH935 the captivesH7633 inH935 hereH2008, for you are proposingH559 to bring guiltH819 upon us before the LordH3068, addingH3254 to our sinsH2403 and our guiltH819; for our guiltH819 is greatH7227, and His burningH2740 angerH639 is againstH5921 IsraelH3478.” 14So the armedH2502 menH2502 leftH5800 the captivesH7633 and the spoilsH957 beforeH6440 the officersH8269 and allH3605 the assemblyH6951. 15Then 13the menH376 whoH834 were designatedH5344 by nameH8034 gotH6965 upH6965, tookH2388 the captivesH7633, and they clothedH3847 allH3605 their nakedH4636 peopleH4636 from the spoilsH7998; they gaveH3847 them clothesH3847 and sandalsH5274, fedH398 them and 14gaveH8248 them drinkH8248, anointedH5480 them with oil, ledH5095 allH3605 their feebleH3782 ones on donkeysH2543, and broughtH935 them to JerichoH3405, 15the cityH5892 of palmH8558 treesH8558, to their brothersH251; then they returnedH7725 to SamariaH8111.

1616At that timeH6256 KingH4428 AhazH271 sentH7971 word to the 17kingsH4428 of AssyriaH804 for helpH5826. 1718For the EdomitesH130 had comeH935 againH5750 and attackedH5221 JudahH3063, and ledH7617 awayH7617 captivesH7628. 1819The PhilistinesH6430 had also invadedH6584 the citiesH5892 of the 20lowlandH8219 and of the NegevH5045 of JudahH3063, and had takenH3920 Beth-shemeshH1053, AijalonH357, GederothH1450, and SocoH7755 with its villagesH1323, TimnahH8553 with its villagesH1323, and GimzoH1579 with its villagesH1323; and they had settledH3427 thereH8033.
