2 Kings 13:1-7

1In the twenty-thirdH6242H7969 yearH8141 of JoashH3060 the sonH1121 of AhaziahH274, kingH4428 of JudahH3063, JehoahazH3059 the sonH1121 of JehuH3058 becameH4427 kingH4427 overH5921 IsraelH3478 at SamariaH8111, and he reigned for seventeenH7651H6240 yearsH8141.

2He didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, and followedH1980H310 the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, 1into whichH834 he misledH2398 IsraelH3478; he did not turnH5493 from them.

32So the angerH639 of the LordH3068 was kindledH2734 against IsraelH3478, and He continuallyH3605H3117 handedH5414H3027 them overH5414 to 3HazaelH2371 kingH4428 of AramH758, and to 4Ben-hadadH1130, the sonH1121 of HazaelH2371.

4Then 5JehoahazH3059 appeasedH2470H6440 the LordH3068, and the LordH3068 listenedH8085 to him; for 6He sawH7200 the oppressionH3906 of IsraelH3478, howH3588 the kingH4428 of AramH758 oppressedH3905 them.

5And the LordH3068 gaveH5414 IsraelH3478 a 78saviorH3467, so that they 9escapedH3318 from underH8478 the handH3027 of the ArameansH758; and the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 livedH3427 in their tentsH168 as previouslyH8032H8543.

6NeverthelessH389 they did not abandonH5493H4480 the sinsH2403 of the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379, 10into whichH834 he misledH2398 IsraelH3478; rather, they walkedH1980 in 11them; and 12the 13AsherahH842 alsoH1571 remained standingH5975 in SamariaH8111.

7For he leftH7604 to JehoahazH3059 noH3808 moreH3588H518 of the 14armyH5971 thanH3588H518 fiftyH2572 horsemenH6571, tenH6235 chariotsH7393, and tenH6235 thousandH505 infantryH7273, becauseH3588 the kingH4428 of AramH758 had eliminatedH6 them and 15madeH7760 them like the dustH6083 at threshingH1758.
