2 Chronicles 25:18-20
English Standard Version Anglicised
18 And Joash the king of Israel sent word to Amaziah king of Judah, (A)“A thistle on Lebanon sent to a cedar on Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son for a wife’, and a wild beast of Lebanon passed by and trampled down the thistle. 19 You say, ‘See, I[a] have struck down Edom’, and (B)your heart has lifted you up in boastfulness. But now stay at home. Why should you provoke trouble so that you fall, you and Judah with you?”
20 But Amaziah would not listen, for it was of God, in order that he might give them into the hand of their enemies, (C)because they had sought the gods of Edom.
