17 And yet the Edomites came and they will strike in Judah, and take captive a captivity. 18 And the rovers invaded upon the cities of the low country, and the south to Judah, and they will take the house of the sun, and the oak, and the walls, and the branches and her daughters, and the portion assigned and her daughters, and Gimzo and her daughters: and they will dwell there. 19 For Jehovah humbled Judah on account of Ahaz king of Israel: for he was unbridled upon Judah, and transgressing, he transgressed against Jehovah. 20 And Tilgath-Pileser king of Assur, will come to him and he will press upon him, and he strengthened him not. 21 For Ahaz divided out the house of Jehovah, and the king's house, and the chiefs, and he will give to the king of Assur: and not for help to him. 22 And in the time of straits to him and he will add to transgress against Jehovah: this the king Ahaz. 23 And he will sacrifice to the gods of Darmesek smiting upon him: and he will say, Because the gods of the kings of Aram they help them, to them will I sacrifice, and they will help me. And they were to him for stumbling, and to all Israel. 24 And Ahaz will gather together the vessels of the house of God, and cut in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and shut up the doors of the house of Jehovah, and he will make to him altars in every corner in Jerusalem. 25 And in every city and city to Judah he made heights to burn incense to other gods, and he will irritate Jehovah the God of his fathers. 26 And the rest of his words and all his ways, the first and the last, behold them written upon the book of the kings of Judah and Israel. 27 And Ahaz will lie down with his fathers, and they will bury him in the city in Jerusalem: but they brought him not to the graves of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son will reign in his stead. 2 Chronicles 28:17-27, Smith's Literal Translation.
