5 Então Resim rei da Síria, e Peca filho de Remalias rei de Israel, subiram a Jerusalém para fazer guerra, e cercar a Acaz; mas não puderam tomá-la.

6 Naquele tempo Resim rei da Síria restituiu Elate à Síria, e expulsou aos judeus de Elate; e os sírios vieram a Elate, e habitaram ali até hoje.

7 Então Acaz enviou embaixadores a Tiglate-Pileser rei da Assíria, dizendo: Eu sou teu servo e teu filho: sobe, e defende-me da mão do rei da Síria, e da mão do rei de Israel, que se levantaram contra mim.

8 E tomando Acaz a prata e o ouro que se achou na casa do SENHOR, e nos tesouros da casa real, enviou um presente ao rei da Assíria.

9 E atendeu-lhe o rei da Assíria; pois subiu o rei da Assíria contra Damasco, e tomou-a, e transportou os moradores a Quir, e matou a Resim.
