2 Chronicles 21:8-17
8In his daysH3117 1EdomH112 brokeH6586 awayH6586 2fromH4480H8478H3027 the ruleH3027 of JudahH3063, and appointedH4427 a kingH4428 overH5921 themselves. 9Then JehoramH3088 crossedH5674 overH5674 with his commandersH8269 and allH3605 his chariotsH7393 with him. And he gotH6965 upH6965 at nightH3915 and struckH5221 andH5221 killedH5221 the EdomitesH112 who were surroundingH5437 him, and the commandersH8269 of the chariotsH7393. 10So EdomH112 revoltedH6586 3againstH4480H8478H3027 JudahH3063 to thisH2088 dayH3117. ThenH227 LibnahH3841 revoltedH6586 at the sameH1931 timeH6256 4againstH4480H8478 his ruleH3027 becauseH3588 he had abandonedH5800 the LordH3068 GodH430 of his fathersH1. 11FurthermoreH1571, 5he madeH6213 highH1116 placesH1116 in the mountainsH2022 of JudahH3063, and caused the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 6to be unfaithfulH2181, and ledH5080 JudahH3063 astrayH5080.
12Then a letterH4385 cameH935 to him from ElijahH452 the prophetH5030, sayingH559, “ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of your fatherH1 DavidH1732 says: ‘BecauseH8478H834 7you have not walkedH1980 in the waysH1870 of your fatherH1 JehoshaphatH3092 8and the waysH1870 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, 13but 9have walkedH1980 in the wayH1870 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478, and have caused JudahH3063 and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 to be unfaithfulH2181 10as the houseH1004 of AhabH256 was unfaithfulH2181, and you 11have alsoH1571 killedH2026 your brothersH251, 12your own familyH1004H1, who were betterH2896 thanH4480 you, 14beholdH2009, the LordH3068 is going to strikeH5062 your peopleH5971, your sonsH1121, your wivesH802, and allH3605 your possessionsH7399 with a greatH1419 plagueH4046; 15and 13you will suffer 14severeH7227 sicknessH2483, a diseaseH4245 of your bowelsH4578, untilH5704 your bowelsH4578 comeH3318 outH3318 becauseH4480 of the sicknessH2483, dayH3117 by dayH3117.’”
16Then 15the LordH3068 stirredH5782 upH5782 againstH5921 JehoramH3088 the spiritH7307 of the PhilistinesH6430 and 16the ArabsH6163 whoH834 17borderedH5921H3027 the EthiopiansH3569; 17and they cameH5927 against JudahH3063 and invadedH1234 it, and carriedH7617 awayH7617 allH3605 the possessionsH7399 foundH4672 in the king’sH4428 houseH1004 togetherH1571 with his sonsH1121 and his wivesH802, so that noH3808 sonH1121 was leftH7604 to him exceptH3588H518 1819JehoahazH3059, the youngestH6996 of his sonsH1121.
