22 During all the days Jehoahaz was king, Hazael king of Aram troubled Israel.

24 When Hazael king of Aram died, his son Ben-Hadad became king in his place.
25 During a war Hazael had taken some cities from Jehoahaz, Jehoash's father. Now Jehoash took back those cities from Hazael's son Ben-Hadad. He defeated Ben-Hadad three times and took back the cities of Israel.
