Syria and Israel Defeat Judah^(A)

⁵ Therefore ^(B)the Lord his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria. They ^(C)defeated him, and carried away a great multitude of them as captives, and brought them to Damascus. Then he was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who defeated him with a great slaughter.

¹⁹ For the Lord ^[a]brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of ^(A)Israel, for he had ^(B)encouraged moral decline in Judah and had been continually unfaithful to the Lord.
