2 Chronicles 24:22-24

New American Standard Bible 1995

²² Thus Joash the king did not remember the kindness which his father Jehoiada had shown him, but he murdered his son. And as he died he said, “May ^(A)the Lord see and ^[a]avenge!”

Aram Invades and Defeats Judah

²³ Now it happened at the turn of the year that ^(B)the army of the Arameans came up against him; and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, destroyed all the officials of the people from among the people, and sent all their spoil to the king of Damascus. ²⁴ Indeed the army of the Arameans came with a small number of men; yet ^(C)the Lord delivered a very great army into their hands, ^(D)because they had forsaken the Lord, the God of their fathers. Thus they executed judgment on Joash.
