2 Kings 8:18-27
18And Jehoram walkedH1980 in the waysH1870 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478, just asH834 the houseH1004 of AhabH256 had doneH6213. ForH3588 he marriedH802 a daughterH1323 of AhabH256 and didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068.
19Yet for the sakeH4616 of His servantH5650 DavidH1732, the LORDH3068 was unwillingH3808H14 to destroyH7843 JudahH3063, sinceH834 He had promisedH559 to maintainH5414 a lampH5216 for David and his descendantsH1121 foreverH3605H3117.
20In the daysH3117 of Jehoram,1 EdomH123 rebelledH6586 againstH8478 the handH3027 of JudahH3063 and appointedH4427 their ownH5921 kingH4428. 21So JehoramH31412 crossed overH5674 to ZairH6811 withH5973H1961 allH3605 his chariotsH7393. When the EdomitesH123 surroundedH5437 himH413 andH853 his chariotH7393 commandersH8269, heH1931 rose upH6965 and attackedH5221 by nightH3915. His troops, howeverH5971, fledH5127 to their homesH168.
22So toH5704 thisH2088 dayH3117 EdomH123 has been in rebellionH6586 againstH8478 the hand ofH3027 JudahH3063. LikewiseH227, LibnahH3841 rebelledH6586 at the sameH1931 timeH6256.
23As for the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of JehoramH3141, along with allH3605 his accomplishmentsH834H6213, are theyH1992 notH3808 writtenH3789 inH5921 the bookH5612 of the ChroniclesH1697H3117 of the KingsH4428 of JudahH3063?
24And JehoramH3141 restedH7901 withH5973 his fathersH1 and was buriedH6912 withH5973 them in the CityH5892 of DavidH1732. And his sonH1121 AhaziahH274 reignedH4427 in his placeH8478.
25In the twelfthH8147H6240H8141 yearH8141 of the reignH4428 of JoramH3141 sonH1121 of AhabH256 over IsraelH3478, AhaziahH274 sonH1121 of JehoramH3088 became kingH4427H4428 of JudahH3063. 26AhaziahH274 was twenty-twoH6242H8147 years oldH1121H8141 when he became kingH4427, and he reignedH4427 in JerusalemH3389 oneH259 yearH8141. His mother’sH517 nameH8034 was AthaliahH6271, the granddaughterH1323 of OmriH6018 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478.
27And Ahaziah walkedH1980 in the waysH1870 of the houseH1004 of AhabH256 and didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 like the houseH1004 of AhabH256, forH3588 heH1931 was a son-in-lawH2860 of the houseH1004 of AhabH256.
