2 Kings 8:18-26

18He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done, for 1the daughter of Ahab became his wife; and he did evil in the sight of the Lord. 19However, the Lord was not willing to destroy Judah, for the sake of David His servant, 2since He had 3promised him to give a 4lamp to him through his sons always.

20In his days 5Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves. 21Then Joram crossed over to Zair, and all his chariots with him. And he arose by night and struck the Edomites who had surrounded him and the captains of the chariots; 6but his 7army fled to their tents. 228So Edom revolted 9against Judah to this day. Then 10Libnah revolted at the same time. 23The rest of the acts of Joram and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? 24So Joram slept with his fathers and 11was buried with his fathers in the city of David; and 12Ahaziah his son became king in his place.

2513In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah began to reign. 2614Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Athaliah the granddaughter of Omri king of Israel.
