2 Chronicles 28:16-23

At that time
<06256>
did king
<04428>
Ahaz
<0271>
send
<07971> (8804)
unto the kings
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>
to help
<05826> (8800)
him.
For again the Edomites
<0130>
had come
<0935> (8804)
and smitten
<05221> (8686)
Judah
<03063>_,
and carried away
<07617> (8799)
captives
<07628>_.
{captives: Heb. a captivity}
The Philistines
<06430>
also had invaded
<06584> (8804)
the cities
<05892>
of the low country
<08219>_,
and of the south
<05045>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and had taken
<03920> (8799)
Bethshemesh
<01053>_,
and Ajalon
<0357>_,
and Gederoth
<01450>_,
and Shocho
<07755>
with the villages
<01323>
thereof, and Timnah
<08553>
with the villages
<01323>
thereof, Gimzo
<01579>
also and the villages
<01323>
thereof: and they dwelt
<03427> (8799)
there.
For the LORD
<03068>
brought
<03665> (0)
Judah
<03063>
low
<03665> (8689)
because of Ahaz
<0271>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_;
for he made
<06544> (0)
Judah
<03063>
naked
<06544> (8689)_,
and transgressed
<04603> (8800)
sore
<04604>
against the LORD
<03068>_.
And Tilgathpilneser
<08407>
king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>
came
<0935> (8799)
unto him, and distressed
<06696> (8799)
him, but strengthened
<02388> (8804)
him not.
For Ahaz
<0271>
took away a portion
<02505> (8804)
[out] of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and [out] of the house
<01004>
of the king
<04428>_,
and of the princes
<08269>_,
and gave
<05414> (8799)
[it] unto the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_:
but he helped
<05833>
him not.
And in the time
<06256>
of his distress
<06887> (8687)
did he trespass
<04603> (8800)
yet more
<03254> (8686)
against the LORD
<03068>_:
this [is that] king
<04428>
Ahaz
<0271>_.
For he sacrificed
<02076> (8799)
unto the gods
<0430>
of Damascus
<01834>_,
which smote
<05221> (8688)
him: and he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Because the gods
<0430>
of the kings
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>
help
<05826> (8688)
them, [therefore] will I sacrifice
<02076> (8762)
to them, that they may help
<05826> (8799)
me. But they were the ruin
<03782> (8687)
of him, and of all Israel
<03478>_.
