2 Kings 16:5-9

New International Version

⁵ Then Rezin^(A) king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel marched up to fight against Jerusalem and besieged Ahaz, but they could not overpower him. ⁶ At that time, Rezin^(B) king of Aram recovered Elath^(C) for Aram by driving out the people of Judah. Edomites then moved into Elath and have lived there to this day.

⁷ Ahaz sent messengers to say to Tiglath-Pileser^(D) king of Assyria, “I am your servant and vassal. Come up and save^(E) me out of the hand of the king of Aram and of the king of Israel, who are attacking me.” ⁸ And Ahaz took the silver and gold found in the temple of the Lord and in the treasuries of the royal palace and sent it as a gift^(F) to the king of Assyria. ⁹ The king of Assyria complied by attacking Damascus^(G) and capturing it. He deported its inhabitants to Kir^(H) and put Rezin to death.
