Isaiah 10:1-4 | 2_Chronicles_28:9-15 | 2 Kings 16:5-6

9. But a prophet of יְהוָ֥ה was there, whose name Oded: and he went out before the host that came to Samaria, and said unto them, Behold, because יְהוָ֥ה Elohim of your fathers was wroth with Judah, he hath delivered them into your hand, and ye have slain them in a rage reacheth up unto heaven.
10. And now ye purpose to keep under the children of Judah and Jerusalem for bondmen and bondwomen unto you: not with you, even with you, sins against יְהוָ֥ה your Elohim?
11. Now hear me therefore, and deliver the captives again, which ye have taken captive of your brethren: for the fierce wrath of יְהוָ֥ה upon you.
12. Then certain of the heads of the children of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, and Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against them that came from the war,
13. And said unto them, Ye shall not bring in the captives hither: for whereas we have offended against יְהוָ֥ה, ye intend to add to our sins and to our trespass: for our trespass is great, and fierce wrath against Israel.
14. So the armed men left the captives and the spoil before the princes and all the congregation.
15. And the men which were expressed by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the feeble of them upon asses, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brethren: then they returned to Samaria.
