2 Chronicles 25:22-24
Contemporary English Version
22 During the battle, Judah's army was crushed. Every soldier from Judah ran back home, 23 and Jehoash captured Amaziah.
Jehoash took Amaziah with him when he went to attack Jerusalem. Jehoash broke down the city wall from Ephraim Gate to Corner Gate, a section nearly 200 meters long. 24 He carried away the gold, the silver, and all the valuable furnishings from God's temple where the descendants of Obed-Edom stood guard. He robbed the king's treasury, took hostages, then returned to Samaria.

Then Jehoash brought him to Jerusalem and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate(A) to the Corner Gate(B)—a section about four hundred cubits[b] long. 24 He took all the gold and silver and all the articles found in the temple of God that had been in the care of Obed-Edom,(C) together with the palace treasures and the hostages, and returned to Samaria.
