*
And Jehoash the king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah ,
saying ,
The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon ,
saying ,
Give thy daughter to my son to wife :
and there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon ,
and trode down the thistle .
*
Thou hast indeed smitten Edom ,
and thine heart hath lifted thee up :
glory of this ,
and tarry at home :
for why shouldest thou meddle to thy hurt ,
that thou shouldest fall ,
even thou ,
and Judah with thee ?
*
But Amaziah would not hear .
Therefore Jehoash king of Israel went up ;
and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Bethshemesh Beyth ,
which belongeth to Judah .
