Ahaz Sends for Help from Assyria
7 (A)So Ahaz sent messengers to (B)Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son; come up and save me from the [a]hand of the king of Aram and from the [b]hand of the king of Israel, who are rising up against me.” 8 (C)Ahaz also took the silver and gold that was found in the house of Yahweh and in the treasuries of the king’s house, and sent a gift to the king of Assyria. 9 (D)So the king of Assyria listened to him; and the king of Assyria went up against Damascus and (E)seized it and took the people of it away into exile to (F)Kir, and put Rezin to death.
