2 Kings 13:4-6
New American Standard Bible
4 Then (A)Jehoahaz appeased the Lord, and the Lord listened to him; for (B)He saw the oppression of Israel, how the king of Aram oppressed them. 5 And the Lord gave Israel a [a](C)savior, so that they [b]escaped from under the hand of the Arameans; and the sons of Israel lived in their tents as previously. 6 Nevertheless they did not abandon the sins of the house of Jeroboam, (D)into which he misled Israel; rather, they walked in [c]them; and (E)the [d]Asherah also remained standing in Samaria.

2 Kings 13:4-6
New International Version
4 Then Jehoahaz sought(A) the Lord’s favor, and the Lord listened to him, for he saw(B) how severely the king of Aram was oppressing(C) Israel. 5 The Lord provided a deliverer(D) for Israel, and they escaped from the power of Aram. So the Israelites lived in their own homes as they had before. 6 But they did not turn away from the sins(E) of the house of Jeroboam, which he had caused Israel to commit; they continued in them. Also, the Asherah pole[a](F) remained standing in Samaria.
