2 Chronicles 28:19-21

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁹ For the Lord brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of Israel, for Ahaz had dealt with reckless cruelty against Judah and had been faithless [had transgressed sorely] against the Lord.

²⁰ So Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria came to him and distressed him without strengthening him.

²¹ For Ahaz took [treasure] from the house of the Lord and out of the house of the king and from the princes and gave it as tribute to the king of Assyria, but it did not help Ahaz.
