2 Chronicles 28:20-23

20King Tiglath-pileser of Assyria came, but he gave him more trouble than support.

21Ahaz gathered riches from the Lord’s temple, the royal palace, and the officials and gave them to the king of Assyria, but that did not help.

22During his time of trouble King Ahaz was even more unfaithful to the Lord.

23He offered sacrifices to the gods of Damascus whom he thought had defeated him. He reasoned, “Since the gods of the kings of Damascus helped them, I will sacrifice to them so they will help me.” But they caused him and all Israel to stumble.
