2 Chronicles 25:22-24
International Standard Version
22 Judah was defeated by Israel, and every soldier ran home. 23 King Joash of Israel captured Joash’s son King Amaziah of Judah, the grandson of Ahaziah, at Beth-shemesh and brought him back to Jerusalem, where he broke down 400 cubits[a] of the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate. 24 He confiscated all the gold, silver, and utensils that he could find in the care of Obed-edom inside of God’s Temple and inside the royal palace. Then he took some hostages and returned to Samaria.
