2 Chronicles 28:18-20

International Children’s Bible

¹⁸ The Philistines also robbed the towns in the western mountain slopes and in southern Judah. They captured the towns of Beth Shemesh, Aijalon, Gederoth, Soco, Timnah and Gimzo. They also captured the villages around them. Then the Philistines lived in those towns. ¹⁹ The Lord brought trouble on Judah because of Ahaz their king. Ahaz had caused the people of Judah to sin. And he had been unfaithful to the Lord. ²⁰ Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria came to Ahaz. But he gave Ahaz trouble instead of help.
