H6256
At that time
H4428
did king
H271
Ahaz
H7971
send
H4428
unto the kings
H804
of Assyria
H5826
to help him.
17
H130
For again the Edomites
H935
had come
H5221
and smitten
H3063
Judah,
H7617
and carried away
H7628
captives.
18
H6430
The Philistines
H6584
also had invaded
H5892
the cities
H8219
of the lowland,
H5045
and of the South
H3063
of Judah,
H3920
and had taken
H1053
Beth-shemesh,
H357
and Aijalon,
H1450
and Gederoth,
H7755
and Soco
H1323
with the towns
H8553
thereof, and Timnah
H1323
with the towns
H1579
thereof, Gimzo
H1323
also and the towns
H3427
thereof: and they dwelt there.
19
H3068
For Jehovah
H3665
brought
H3063
Judah
H3665
low
H271
because of Ahaz
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel;
H6544
for he had dealt
H6544
wantonly
H3063
in Judah,
H4603
and trespassed
H4604
sore
H3068
against Jehovah.
20
H8407
And Tilgath-pilneser
H4428
king
H804
of Assyria
H935
came
H6696
unto him, and distressed
H2388
him, but strengthened him not.
21
H271
For Ahaz
H2505
took away a portion
H1004
out of the house
H3068
of Jehovah,
H1004
and out of the house
H4428
of the king
H8269
and of the princes,
H5414
and gave
H4428
it unto the king
H804
of Assyria:
H5833
but it helped him not.
22
H6256
And in the time
H6887
of his distress
H4603
did he trespass
H3254
yet more
H3068
against Jehovah,
H4428
this same king
H271
Ahaz.
23
H2076
For he sacrificed
H430
unto the gods
H1834
of Damascus,
H5221
which smote
H559
him; and he said,
H430
Because the gods
H4428
of the kings
H758
of Syria
H5826
helped
H2076
them, therefore will I sacrifice
H5826
to them, that they may help
H3782
me. But they were the ruin
H3478
of him, and of all Israel.
