20 But Am·a·ziʹah did not listen,+ for this was from the true God to give them into the hand of the enemy,+ because they had followed the gods of Eʹdom.+ 21 So King Je·hoʹash of Israel went up, and he and King Am·a·ziʹah of Judah confronted each other in battle at Beth-sheʹmesh,+ which belongs to Judah. 22 Judah was defeated by Israel, so each one fled to his home.* 23 King Je·hoʹash of Israel captured King Am·a·ziʹah of Judah, son of Je·hoʹash son of Je·hoʹa·haz,* at Beth-sheʹmesh. Then he brought him to Jerusalem and made a breach in the wall of Jerusalem from the Gate of Eʹphra·im+ to the Corner Gate,+ 400 cubits.* 24 He took all the gold and the silver and all the articles that were found in the house of the true God with* Oʹbed-eʹdom and in the treasuries of the king’s house,*+ as well as hostages. Then he returned to Sa·marʹi·a.
