2 Kings 14:26-28

Good News Translation

²⁶ The Lord saw the terrible^[a] suffering of the Israelites; there was no one at all to help them. ²⁷ But it was not the Lord's purpose to destroy Israel completely and forever, so he rescued them through King Jeroboam II.

²⁸ Everything else that Jeroboam II did, his brave battles, and how he restored Damascus and Hamath to Israel,^[b] are all recorded in The History of the Kings of Israel.
