Kau mēmipa angatonu mei he ngaahi faʻahingá kātoa (2 Tohi Fakamatala Meʻa Hokohoko. 11:16–17)

Naʻe ui ʻa ʻĪsaia ki he ngāué lolotonga ia e hōloa e mālohi mo e tuʻumālie ʻa ʻIsileli mo Siutá. Kuo faʻufaʻu ʻe he puleʻanga he fakatokelau ʻo ʻIsilelí (ʻIfalemi) pea mo Sīlia haʻana kongakau ke na mālohi mo maluʻi kinautolu mei he fakaaoao ʻa e puleʻanga hau ʻo ʻAsiliá. ʻI he taʻe-loto ʻa Siuta ke kau fakataha mo kinauá, naʻe ʻohofi leva ʻe ʻIsileli mo Sīlia ʻa Siuta. (vakai, 2 Nīfai 17:1).

Naʻe fekau kia ʻĪsaia ke fakatokanga kia ʻĀhasi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siutá, ke ʻoua naʻa fekumi ki ha ngaahi tokoni fakapolitikale maʻa Siuta ke maluʻi hono kakaí, ka naʻe fakafisingaʻi ʻe ʻĀhasi ʻa e fakatokanga ʻa e ʻEikí (vakai, 2 Ngaahi Tuʻi 16:7–20). Naʻe felotoi ʻa ʻĀhasi mo e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsiliá, Tekilati-pilesa II (Pul), pea naʻe hoko ʻa Siuta ko ha fonua kolonia, ʻo nau totongi tukuhau ki ʻAsīlia ke maluʻi kinautolu mei Sīlia mo ʻIsileli. Naʻe kapa māmālie ʻe ʻAsilia ʻa e fanga kiʻi puleʻanga īkí. Naʻe kapa ʻa Tāmasikusi (Sīlia) ʻi he 732 K.M., pea hoko mo Samēlia (ʻIsileli) ʻi he 722 K.M., pea pehē ki Siuta kotoa, tuku kehe ʻa Selusalema, naʻe kapa ia ʻe ʻAsilia ʻi he 701 K.M.

Hangē ko e ngaahi kikite lahi ʻa ʻĪsaiá, naʻe fakakakato ʻi hono taimí (vakai, 2 Ngaahi Tuʻi 16–18), ʻa ia ʻoku ʻasi ʻi he hisitōlia motuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli mo Siutá.

Naʻe kapa ʻa e puleʻanga ʻIsileli ʻi he fakatokelaú ʻe he puleʻanga ʻAsiliá ʻi he 22 K.M., pea ko e tokolahi honau kakaí (ʻoku ʻiloa he ʻahó ni ko e faʻahinga naʻe mole ʻo ʻIsilelí) ne taki pōpula kinautolu.
