2 Kings 13:3-7

3 ^cAnd the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he gave them continually into the hand of ^dHazael king of Syria and into the hand of ^eBen-hadad the son of Hazael. 4 Then Jehoahaz ^fsought the favor of the Lord, and the Lord listened to him, ^gfor he saw the oppression of Israel, how the king of Syria oppressed them. 5 (Therefore the Lord gave Israel ^ha savior, so that they escaped from the hand of the Syrians, and the people of Israel lived in ⁱtheir homes as formerly. 6 Nevertheless, they did not depart from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, ^jwhich he made Israel to sin, but walked ^{▼▼Septuagint, Syriac, Targum, Vulgate; Hebrew he walked} in them; and ^lthe Asherah also remained in Samaria.) 7 For there was not left to Jehoahaz an army of more than fifty horsemen and ten chariots and ten thousand footmen, for the king of Syria had destroyed them and made them like the dust ^mat threshing.
