2 Chronicles 25:13-15

Context
25:13 Now the troops Amaziah had dismissed and had not allowed to fight in the battle 1  raided 2  the cities of Judah from Samaria 3  to Beth Horon. They killed 4  3,000 people and carried off a large amount of plunder.

25:14 When Amaziah returned from defeating the Edomites, he brought back the gods of the people 5  of Seir and made them his personal gods. 6  He bowed down before them and offered them sacrifices. 25:15 The Lord was angry at Amaziah and sent a prophet to him, who said, “Why are you following 7  these gods 8  that could not deliver their own people from your power?” 9
