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.
10 E foi o rei Acaz a encontrar a Tiglate-Pileser rei da Assíria em Damasco; e visto que havia o rei Acaz o altar que estava em Damasco, enviou a Urias sacerdote o desenho e a descrição do altar, conforme a toda sua feitura.
