Na Awurade odiyifoɔ a ne din de Oded wɔ Samaria hɔ wɔ ɛberɛ a Israel akodɔm sane baa efie no. Ɔkɔhyiaa wɔn ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Awurade, mo agyanom Onyankopɔn, bo fuu Yuda, na ɔmaa modii wɔn so nkonim. Nanso, moayɛ ma aboro so dodo sɛ mode atirimuɔden akunkum wɔn, ama aha ɔsoro nyinaa.

Saa ɛberɛ no mu, Yudahene Ahas kɔsrɛɛ Asiriahene sɛ ɔmmɛboa no na ɔnkɔko ntia nʼatamfoɔ. 
Bio, na Edom akodɔm adi Yuda so nkonim, akyekyere binom nnommum. 
Na Filistifoɔ ato ahyɛ nkuro a ɛwɔ Yuda mmepɔ ayaase ne Negeb so. Na wɔako afa Bet-Semes, Ayalon, Gederot ne Soko ne wɔn nkurotoɔ ne Timna ne Gimso ne wɔn nkurotoɔ no. Na Filistifoɔ no tenatenaa saa nkuro yi so. 
Na Awurade rebrɛ Yuda ase, ɛsiane Yudahene Ahas enti, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔboa ne nkurɔfoɔ ma wɔyɛ bɔne, na na ɔnni Awurade nokorɛ korakora nso.

Ahas tasee nneɛma a ɛsom bo firii Awurade asɔredan no mu, ahemfie hɔ ne ne mpanimfoɔ afie mu, de kɔmaa Asiriahene sɛ ne toɔ. Nanso, yei mpo, ammoa no. 
Na sɛ ɔhaw bi ba ɔhene Ahas so mpo a, ɔkɔ so yɛ asoɔden ma Awurade. 
Ɔbɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa Damasko anyame a wɔdii ne so nkonim no, na ɔkaa sɛ, “Saa anyame yi na wɔboaa Aram ahemfo enti, sɛ mebɔ afɔdeɛ ma wɔn a, wɔbɛboa me nso.” Nanso, wɔmaa no sɛeeɛ, ma Israel nyinaa sɛeeɛ. 
Ɔhene no tasee nneɛma ahodoɔ a ɛwɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no mu nyinaa, bubuu mu asinasini. Ɔtotoo Awurade asɔredan no apono mu, sɛdeɛ obiara ntumi nkɔsom wɔ hɔ. Ɔsisii afɔrebukyia maa abosonsom anyame wɔ Yerusalem twɛtwɛwa so baabiara. 
Ɔyɛɛ abosonsom asɔreeɛ wɔ Yuda nkuro nyinaa so a wɔbɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ hɔ ma anyame foforɔ no. Ɔnam saa ɛkwan yi so, hyɛɛ Awurade, nʼagyanom Onyankopɔn, abufuo. 
Ahas ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ no firi ahyɛaseɛ kɔsi awieeɛ no, wɔatwerɛ agu Yuda ahemfo ne Israel ahemfo nwoma mu. 
Ɔhene Ahas wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no wɔ Yerusalem, nanso wɔansie no wɔ adehyeɛ amusieeɛ. Ne babarima Hesekia na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
