約哈斯懇求耶和華，耶和華就應允他，因為見以色列人所受亞蘭王的欺壓。 耶和華賜給以色列人一位拯救者，使他們脫離亞蘭人的手；於是以色列人仍舊安居在家裏。 然而他們不離開耶羅波安家使以色列人陷在罪裏的那罪，仍然去行，並且在撒馬利亞留下亞舍拉。 列王紀下 13:4-6
Then Jehoahaz prayed to the Lord again. And the Lord listened to him because of the king of Aram. The Lord knew that the king of Aram was being very cruel to Israel. The Lord sent someone to help Israel. So they were free from the power of Aram. So the people in Israel lived in their own homes, as they had done before this time. But the people in Israel still did the sins of the family of Jeroboam. They continued to do what Jeroboam had caused Israel to do. So, the Asherah pole still stood in Samaria.
2 Kings 13:4-6
