Parallel
2 Kings 17:4
Jewish Publication Society 1917 · Berean Standard Bible
And the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea; for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and offered no present 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.
But the king of Assyria discovered that Hoshea had conspired to send envoys to King So (note: So is likely an abbreviation for Osorkon.) of Egypt, and that he had not paid tribute to the king of Assyria as in previous years. Therefore the king of Assyria arrested Hoshea and put him in prison.
