Old Testament

New Testament

2 Chronicles 28:15-20 New International Version (NIV)

15. The men designated by name took the prisoners, and from the plunder they clothed all who were naked. They provided them with clothes and sandals, food and drink, and healing balm. All those who were weak they put on donkeys. So they took them back to their fellow Israelites at Jericho, the City of Palms, and returned to Samaria.

16. At that time King Ahaz sent to the kings of Assyria for help.

17. The Edomites had again come and attacked Judah and carried away prisoners,

18. while the Philistines had raided towns in the foothills and in the Negev of Judah. They captured and occupied Beth Shemesh, Aijalon and Gederoth, as well as Soko, Timnah and Gimzo, with their surrounding villages.

19. The Lord had humbled Judah because of Ahaz king of Israel, for he had promoted wickedness in Judah and had been most unfaithful to the Lord.

20. Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria came to him, but he gave him trouble instead of help.
