2 Kings 14:26-28

Easy-to-Read Version

²⁶ The Lord saw that all the Israelites, both slaves and free men, had many troubles. No one was left who could help Israel. ²⁷ The Lord did not say that he would take away the name of Israel from the world. So he used Jeroboam son of Jehoash to save the Israelites.

²⁸ All the great things that Jeroboam did are written in the book, The History of the Kings of Israel. This includes the story about Jeroboam winning back Damascus and Hamath for Israel. (These cities had belonged to Judah.)
