2 Kings 14:26-27

26 For the Lord saw the full bitter torment of Israel, and that they were wasted unto the closed men of prison (and that they were wasted unto the enclosed men in prison), and to the last men, and there was none that helped Israel.

27 And the Lord spake not, that he should do away [the name of] Israel from under heaven, but he saved them in the hand of Jeroboam (II), the son of Jehoash. (And the Lord spoke not, that he would do away the name of Israel from under heaven, but he saved them by the hand, or by the power, of Jeroboam II, the son of Jehoash.)
