Assyria Refuses to Help Judah
16 aAt the same time King Ahaz sent to the kings of Assyria to help him.
17 For again the aEdomites had come, attacked Judah, and carried away captives.
18 aThe Philistines also had invaded the cities of the lowland and of the South of Judah, and had taken Beth Shemesh, Aijalon, Gederoth, Sochoh with its villages, Timnah with its villages, and Gimzo with its villages; and they dwelt there.
19 For the Lord1 brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of aIsrael, for he had bencouraged moral decline in Judah and had been continually unfaithful to the Lord.
20 Also aTiglath-Pileser king of Assyria came to him and distressed him, and did not assist him.
