1Now it cameH1961 aboutH1961 in the daysH3117 of 1AhazH271, the sonH1121 of JothamH3147, the sonH1121 of UzziahH5818, kingH4428 of JudahH3063, that 2RezinH7526 the kingH4428 of AramH758 and 3PekahH6492 the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425, kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, wentH5927 upH5927 to JerusalemH3389 to wage warH4421 againstH5921 it, but 4couldH3201 not 5conquerH3898H5921 it. 2When it was reportedH5046 to the 6houseH1004 of DavidH1732, sayingH559, “The ArameansH758 7have takenH5117 aH5117 standH5117 by 8EphraimH669,” his heartH3824 and the heartsH3824 of his peopleH5971 shookH5128 as the treesH6086 of the forestH3293 shakeH5128 from the windH7307.
