16 At that time King Ahaz has sent to the king of Asshur to give help to him; 17 and again the Edomites have come, and strike in Judah, and take captive a captivity. 18 And the Philistines have rushed against the cities of the low country, and of the south of Judah, and capture Beth-Shemesh, and Aijalon, and Gederoth, and Shocho and its villages, and Timnah and its villages, and Gimzo and its villages, and dwell there, 19 for YHWH has humbled Judah because of Ahaz king of Israel, for he made free with Judah, even to commit a trespass against YHWH. 20 And Tilgath-Pilneser king of Asshur comes to him, and does distress him, and has not strengthened him, 21 though Ahaz has taken a portion [out] of the house of YHWH, and [out] of the house of the king, and of the princes, and gives to the king of Asshur, yet it is no help to him. 2 Chronicles 28:16-21, Literal Standard Version.
