Come up and save me from the hands of the kings of Aram and Israel, who are rising up against me.” ⁸ Ahaz also took the silver and gold found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the king’s palace, and he sent it as a gift to the king of Assyria. ⁹ So the king of Assyria responded to him, marched up to Damascus, and captured it.
