rsv@2Kings:17:3 @ Against him came up Shalmane'ser king of Assyria; and Hoshe'a became his vassal, and paid him tribute.
rsv@2Kings:17:4 @ But the king of Assyria found treachery in Hoshe'a; for he had sent messengers to So, king of Egypt, and offered no tribute to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year; therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison.
rsv@2Kings:17:5 @ Then the king of Assyria invaded all the land and came to Sama'ria, and for three years he besieged it.
