NASB
"So Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria came against him and afflicted him instead of strengthening him."
— 2 Chronicles 28:20, NASB
“And Tilgath–pilneser king of Assyria came unto him, and distressed him, but strengthened him not.”
“And Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria came unto him, and distressed him, but strengthened him not. ”
“Tilgath Pilneser king of Assyria came to him, and distressed him, but didn't strengthen him.”
“King Tiglath-pileser of Assyria came, but he gave him more trouble than support.”
“And he brought against him Thelgathphalnasar king of the Assyrians, who also afflicted him, and plundered him without any resistance.”
“Then Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, came to him, but was a cause of trouble and not of strength to him.”
“And Tilgath–pilneser king of Assyria came unto him, and distressed him, but strengthened him not.”
For again the Edomites had come and attacked Judah and carried away captives.
The Philistines also had invaded the cities of the lowland and of the Negev of Judah, and had taken Beth-shemesh, Aijalon, Gederoth, and Soco with its villages, Timnah with its villages, and Gimzo with its villages, and they settled there.
For the LORD humbled Judah because of Ahaz king of Israel, for he had brought about a lack of restraint in Judah and was very unfaithful to the LORD.
So Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria came against him and afflicted him instead of strengthening him.
Although Ahaz took a portion out of the house of the LORD and out of the palace of the king and of the princes, and gave it to the king of Assyria, it did not help him.
Now in the time of his distress this same King Ahaz became yet more unfaithful to the LORD.
For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus which had defeated him, and said, "Because the gods of the kings of Aram helped them, I will sacrifice to them that they may help me." But they became the downfall of him and all Israel.
