2 Chronicles 28:19-21

Living Bible

¹⁹ For the Lord brought Judah very low on account of the evil deeds of King Ahaz of Israel,^[a] for he had destroyed the spiritual fiber of Judah and had been faithless to the Lord. ²⁰ But when Tilgath-pilneser, king of Assyria, arrived, he caused trouble for King Ahaz instead of helping him. ²¹ So even though Ahaz had given him the Temple gold and the palace treasures, it did no good.
