Syria and Israel Defeat Judah(A)

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. For (D)Pekah the son of Remaliah killed one hundred and twenty thousand in Judah in one day, all valiant men, (E)because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers. Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah the king’s son, Azrikam the officer over the house, and Elkanah who was second to the king. And the children of Israel carried away captive of their (F)brethren two hundred thousand women, sons, and daughters; and they also took away much [a]spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.
