Good News Translation

War between Israel and Syria

²² King Hazael of Syria oppressed the Israelites during all of Jehoahaz' reign, ²³ but the Lord was kind and merciful to them. He would not let them be destroyed, but helped them because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He has never forgotten his people.

²⁴ At the death of King Hazael of Syria his son Benhadad became king.
