Living Bible

New International Version
25 He was the one who restored the boundaries of Israel from Lebo Hamath(A) to the Dead Sea,[a](B) in accordance with the word of the Lord, the God of Israel, spoken through his servant Jonah(C) son of Amittai, the prophet from Gath Hepher.
26 The Lord had seen how bitterly everyone in Israel, whether slave or free,(D) was suffering;[b](E) there was no one to help them.(F) 27 And since the Lord had not said he would blot out(G) the name of Israel from under heaven, he saved(H) them by the hand of Jeroboam son of Jehoash.
