12:013:006 Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of
           Jeroboam, who made Israel sin, but walked therein:  and there
           remained the grove also in Samaria.)

12:013:007 Neither did he leave of the people to Jehoahaz but fifty
           horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the
           king of Syria had destroyed them, and had made them like the
           dust by threshing.

12:013:008 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and
           his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles
           of the kings of Israel?

12:013:009 And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in
           Samaria:  and Joash his son reigned in his stead.

12:013:010 In the thirty and seventh year of Joash king of Judah began
           Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz to reign over Israel in Samaria,
           and reigned sixteen years.

12:013:011 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the lord; he
           departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat,
           who made Israel sin:  but he walked therein.

12:013:012 And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and
           his might wherewith he fought against Amaziah king of Judah,
           are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the
           kings of Israel?

12:013:013 And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat upon his
           throne:  and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of
           Israel.

12:013:014 Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. 
           And Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over
           his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of
           Israel, and the horsemen thereof.

12:013:015 And Elisha said unto him, Take bow and arrows.  And he took
           unto him bow and arrows.

12:013:016 And he said to the king of Israel, Put thine hand upon the
           bow.  And he put his hand upon it:  and Elisha put his hands
           upon the king’s hands.

12:013:017 And he said, Open the window eastward.  And he opened it.  Then
           Elisha said, Shoot.  And he shot.  And he said, The arrow of the
           LORD’s deliverance, and the arrow of deliverance from Syria: 
           for thou shalt smite the Syrians in Aphek, till thou have
           consumed them.

12:013:018 And he said, Take the arrows.  And he took them.  And he said
           unto the king of Israel, Smite upon the ground.  And he smote
           thrice, and stayed.

12:013:019 And the man of God was wroth with him, and said, Thou
           shouldest have smitten five or six times; then hadst thou
           smitten Syria till thou hadst consumed it:  whereas now thou
           shalt smite Syria but thrice.
