And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, all their days.

Verse 3 is found in chapter 13 of 2 Kings. Jehoahaz reigns over Israel during a period in which Hazael oppresses the kingdom. The text states that Jehoahaz seeks the Lord and that the Lord hears his plea, although the sinful structure inherited from Jeroboam remains. The tension is significant: God responds mercifully to the king’s distress, but there is no complete reform of the religious system. Israel receives temporary relief and retains part of its territory, although it remains militarily weakened. The passage presents both judgment for unfaithfulness and mercy in response to affliction.

Laonde l’ira del Signore si accese contro ad Israele; ed egli li diede nelle mani di Hazael, re di Siria, e nelle mani di Ben-hadad, figliuolo di Hazael, tutto quel tempo.

於是,耶和華的怒氣向 以色列 發作,將他們屢次交在 亞蘭 王 哈薛 和他兒子 便‧哈達 的手裏。
