22 But Hazael king of Aram oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz. 23 And the LORD was gracious to them and had compassion on them, and returned to them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither did he cast them from his presence as yet. 24 So Hazael king of Aram died; and Bar-hadad his son reigned in his stead. 25 Then Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again from Bar-hadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken from Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times did Jehoash defeat him, and restored the cities to Israel. 2 Kings 13:22-25, Lamsa Bible. Public domain.
