6 Saa bere no ara nso na Siria hene Resin san gyee Elat+ maa Edomfo, na ɔpam Yudafo no fii Elat maa Edomfo no kɔɔ hɔ, na wɔatena hɔ abesi nnɛ.
7 Enti Ahas tuu abɔfo kɔɔ Asiria hene Tiglat-Pilesa+ nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ: “Meyɛ w’akoa ne wo ba, enti bra begye me fi Siria hene ne Israel hene nsam, efisɛ wɔne me reko.”
8 Ɛnna Ahas sesaw dwetɛ ne sika kɔkɔɔ a ɛwɔ Yehowa fi ne ahemfi* akorae no, na ɔde kotuaa adanmude* maa Asiria hene.+
9 Na Asiria hene tiee no, na ɔkɔɔ Damasko kɔko fae; ɔkyeree emu nnipa kɔɔ Kir,+ na okum Resin.+
10 Ɛnna Ɔhene Ahas kohyiaa Asiria hene Tiglat-Pilesa wɔ Damasko. Bere a Ɔhene Ahas huu afɔremuka a ɛwɔ Damasko no, ɔsoma ma wɔde afɔremuka no nsusuwso kɔmaa ɔsɔfo Uriya de kyerɛɛ no ɔkwan a wɔfaa so yɛɛ afɔremuka no.+

15 Ɔhene Ahas ka kyerɛɛ ɔsɔfo Uriya+ sɛ: “Anɔpa ɔhyew afɔre, anwummere aduan afɔre,+ ɔhene ɔhyew afɔre, ɔhene aduan afɔre, ne ɔman no nyinaa ɔhyew afɔre, wɔn aduan afɔre, ne wɔn nsã afɔre no, bɔ ne nyinaa wɔ afɔremuka kɛse no so.+ Ɔhyew afɔre ho mogya ne afɔre a aka no ho mogya nyinaa nso, fa pete so.
