So the God of Israel put it into the mind of Pul( that is, Tiglath-pileser) king of Assyria to take the Reubenites, Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh into exile. He took them to Halah, Habor, Hara, and Gozan’s river, where they are until today.

Isaiah 9:9-21
All the people— Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria— will know it. They will say with pride and arrogance:“ The bricks have fallen, but we will rebuild with cut stones; the sycamores have been cut down, but we will replace them with cedars.”The Lord has raised up Rezin’s adversaries against him and stirred up his enemies.Aram from the east and Philistia from the west have consumed Israel with open mouths. In all this, His anger is not removed, and His hand is still raised to strike.The people did not turn to Him who struck them; they did not seek the Lord of Hosts.So the Lord cut off Israel’s head and tail, palm branch and reed in a single day.The head is the elder, the honored one; the tail is the prophet, the lying teacher.The leaders of the people mislead them, and those they mislead are swallowed up.Therefore the Lord does not rejoice over Israel’s young men and has no compassion on its fatherless and widows, for everyone is a godless evildoer, and every mouth speaks folly. In all this, His anger is not removed, and His hand is still raised to strike.For wickedness burns like a fire that consumes thorns and briers and kindles the forest thickets so that they go up in a column of smoke.The land is scorched by the wrath of the Lord of Hosts, and the people are like fuel for the fire. No one has compassion on his brother.They carve meat on the right, but they are still hungry; they have eaten on the left, but they are still not satisfied. Each one eats the flesh of his own arm.Manasseh is with Ephraim, and Ephraim with Manasseh; together, both are against Judah. In all this, His anger is not removed, and His hand is still raised to strike.

Listen to this message that I am singing for you, a lament, house of Israel:She has fallen; Virgin Israel will never rise again. She lies abandoned on her land, with no one to raise her up.For the Lord God says: The city that marches out a thousand strong will have only a hundred left, and the one that marches out a hundred strong will have only ten left in the house of Israel.
