In the days of Phacee king of Israel came Theglathphalasar king of Assyria, and took Aion, and Abel Domum Maacha and Janoe, and Cedes, and Asor, and Galaad, and Galilee, and all the land of Nephtali: and carried them captives into Assyria.
And then Benadad heard this, he sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel. And they took Ahion, and Dan, and Abelmaim, and all the walled cities of Nephtali.
Benadad hearkening to king Asa sent the captains of his army against the cities of Israel: and they smote Ahion, and Dan, and Abeldomum Maacha, and all Cenneroth, that is all the land of Nephtali.
And they came, and besieged him in Abela and in Bethmaacha, and they cast up works round the city, and the city was besieged. And all the people that were with Joab laboured to throw down the walls.
