5 wThen Rezin king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to wage war on Jerusalem, and they besieged Ahaz but could not conquer him. 6 At that time Rezin the king of Syria recovered xElath for Syria and drove the men of Judah from Elath, and the Edomites came to Elath, where they dwell yto this day. 7 So Ahaz zsent messengers to aTiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son. Come up and rescue me from the hand of the king of Syria and from the hand of the king of Israel, who are attacking me.” 8 Ahaz also took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the Lord and in the treasures of the king’s house and bsent a present to the king of Assyria. 9 And the king of Assyria listened to him. cThe king of Assyria marched up against Damascus and took it, carrying its people captive to Kir, and he killed Rezin.
