2 Kings 14:25-28
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.
28 As for the other events of Jeroboam’s reign, all he did, and his military achievements, including how he recovered for Israel both Damascus(I) and Hamath,(J) which had belonged to Judah, are they not written in the book of the annals(K) of the kings of Israel?

King James Version
25 He restored the coast of Israel from the entering of Hamath unto the sea of the plain, according to the word of the Lord God of Israel, which he spake by the hand of his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, the prophet, which was of Gathhepher.
26 For the Lord saw the affliction of Israel, that it was very bitter: for there was not any shut up, nor any left, nor any helper for Israel.
27 And the Lord said not that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven: but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash.
28 Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his might, how he warred, and how he recovered Damascus, and Hamath, which belonged to Judah, for Israel, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
