- દમસ્કસના જે દેવોએ તેને હાર આપી હતી તેઓને તેણે બલિદાનો ચઢાવ્યા. તેણે કહ્યું, “કેમ કે અરામના રાજાઓના દેવોએ તેઓને સહાય કરી છે તો આ બલિદાનો ચઢાવવાને લીધે એ દેવો મારી પણ મદદ કરશે.” પણ તેમ કરવાથી ઊલટું તેને અને આખા ઇઝરાયલને ભારે નુકસાન થયું.
- हिन्दी — 2 इतिहास २८:२३
- उसने दमिश्क के देवताओं के लिये जिन्होंने उसको मारा था, बलि चढ़ाया; क्योंकि उसने यह सोचा, कि अरामी राजाओं के देवताओं ने उनकी सहायता की, तो मैं उनके लिये बलि चढ़ाऊँगा कि वे मेरी सहायता करें। परन्तु वे उसके और सारे इस्राएल के पतन का कारण हुए।
