Then Rezin king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remali′ah, king of Israel, came up to wage war on Jerusalem, and they besieged Ahaz but could not conquer him. At that time[a] the king of Edom[b] recovered Elath for Edom,[c] and drove the men of Judah from Elath; and the E′domites came to Elath, where they dwell to this day. So Ahaz sent messengers to Tig′lath-pile′ser 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.”
