2 Chronicles 28:20-22

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁰ So King Tilgath-pilneser of Assyria came against him, and oppressed him instead of strengthening him. ²¹ For Ahaz plundered the house of the Lord and the houses of the king and of the officials, and gave tribute to the king of Assyria; but it did not help him.

²² In the time of his distress he became yet more faithless to the Lord—this same King Ahaz.
