Verse 5 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.

Und der HERR gab Israel einen Heiland, der sie aus der Gewalt der Syrer führte, daß die Kinder Israel in ihren Hütten wohnten wie zuvor.

Jehová dio a Israel un libertador, y salieron del dominio de Aram. Los hijos de Israel volvieron a habitar en sus tiendas como antes.
et l'Eternel donna un libérateur à Israël. Les enfants d'Israël échappèrent aux mains des Syriens, et ils habitèrent dans leurs tentes comme auparavant.
Il Signore adunque diede un liberatore ad Israele; ed essi uscirono di sotto alla mano de’ Siri; ed i figliuoli d’Israele abitarono nelle loro stanze, come per addietro.
E o SENHOR deu um salvador a Israel, e saíram de sob as mãos dos sírios; e os filhos de Israel habitaram nas suas tendas, como no passado
