23 So it happened in the spring of the year that (C)the army of Syria came up against him; and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the leaders of the people from among the people, and sent all their [b]spoil to the king of Damascus. 24 For the army of the Syrians (D)came with a small company of men; but the Lord (E)delivered a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers. So they (F)executed judgment against Joash.
