2 Kings 16:1-9

In the seventeenth
<07651> <06240> <08141>
year
<08141>
of Pekah
<06492>
the son
<01121>
of Remaliah
<07425>
Ahaz
<0271>
the son
<01121>
of Jotham
<03147>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
began to reign
<04427> (8804)_.
Twenty
<06242>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
[was] Ahaz
<0271>
when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_,
and reigned
<04427> (8804)
sixteen
<08337> <06240>
years
<08141>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and did
<06213> (8804)
not [that which was] right
<03477>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>
his God
<0430>_,
like David
<01732>
his father
<01>_.
But he walked
<03212> (8799)
in the way
<01870>
of the kings
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
yea, and made his son
<01121>
to pass through
<05674> (8689)
the fire
<0784>_,
according to the abominations
<08441>
of the heathen
<01471>_,
whom the LORD
<03068>
cast out
<03423> (8689)
from before
<06440>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And he sacrificed
<02076> (8762)
and burnt incense
<06999> (8762)
in the high places
<01116>_,
and on the hills
<01389>_,
and under every green
<07488>
tree
<06086>_.
Then Rezin
<07526>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>
and Pekah
<06492>
son
<01121>
of Remaliah
<07425>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
came up
<05927> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>
to war
<04421>_:
and they besieged
<06696> (8799)
Ahaz
<0271>_,
but could
<03201> (8804)
not overcome
<03898> (8736)
[him].
At that time
<06256>
Rezin
<07526>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>
recovered
<07725> (8689)
Elath
<0359>
to Syria
<0758> (8675) <0130>_,
and drave
<05394> (8762)
the Jews
<03064>
from Elath
<0359>_:
and the Syrians
<0726>
came
<0935> (8804)
to Elath
<0359>_,
and dwelt
<03427> (8799)
there unto this day
<03117>_.
{from Elath: Heb. from Eloth}
So Ahaz
<0271>
sent
<07971> (8799)
messengers
<04397>
to Tiglathpileser
<08407>
king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I [am] thy servant
<05650>
and thy son
<01121>_:
come up
<05927> (8798)_,
and save
<03467> (8685)
me out of the hand
<03709>
of the king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>_,
and out of the hand
<03709>
of the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
which rise up
<06965> (8801)
against me.
And Ahaz
<0271>
took
<03947> (8799)
the silver
<03701>
and gold
<02091>
that was found
<04672> (8737)
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and in the treasures
<0214>
of the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
and sent
<07971> (8799)
[it for] a present
<07810>
to the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_.
And the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>
hearkened
<08085> (8799)
unto him: for the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>
went up
<05927> (8799)
against Damascus
<01834>_,
and took
<08610> (8799)
it, and carried [the people of] it captive
<01540> (8686)
to Kir
<07024>_,
and slew
<04191> (8689)
Rezin
<07526>_.
