2 Chronicles 33:12Conservative English VersionWhile Manasseh was held captive there, he asked the LORD God to forgive him and to help him. See the chapter |
Ahaz and the people of Judah sinned and turned away from the LORD, the God their ancestors had worshiped. So the LORD punished them by letting their enemies defeat them. The king of Syria attacked Judah and took many of its people to Damascus as prisoners. King Pekah of Israel later defeated Judah and killed one hundred twenty thousand of its bravest soldiers in one day.
