2 Kings 13:22-24

GOD’S WORD Translation

²² King Hazael of Aram oppressed Israel as long as Jehoahaz ruled. ²³ But the Lord was kind and merciful to the Israelites because of his promise ^[a] to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He didn’t want to destroy the Israelites, and even now he hasn’t turned away from them.

²⁴ King Hazael of Aram died, and his son Benhadad succeeded him as king.
