2 Kings 13:22-25
New American Standard Bible
22 Now (A)Hazael king of Aram had oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz. 23 But the (B)Lord was gracious to them and (C)had compassion on them and turned to them because of (D)His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; and He was unwilling to eliminate them or cast them away from His presence until now.
24 When Hazael king of Aram died, his son Ben-hadad became king in his place. 25 Then (E)Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz again took from the hand of Ben-hadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken in war from the hand of his father Jehoahaz. (F)Three times Joash [a]defeated him and recovered the cities of Israel.

International Standard Version
Elisha’s Prophecy of Partial Victory is Fulfilled
22 Meanwhile, King Hazael of Aram had been oppressing Israel throughout the reign of Jehoahaz, 23 but the Lord showed grace to them, displayed his compassion toward them, and turned to them due to his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He would not destroy them or evict them from his presence up until that time. 24 After King Hazael of Aram died, his son Ben-hadad replaced him as king. 25 At that time, Jehoahaz’s son Jehoash recaptured from Hazael’s son Ben-hadad the cities that Hazael[a] had captured through warfare from the control of Jehoahaz, Jehoash’s father. Joash[b] defeated and recovered cities of Israel from Ben-hadad[c] three times.
