H3092
Now Jehoshaphat
H7901 [H8799]
slept
H1
with his fathers,
H6912 [H8735]
and was buried
H1
with his fathers
H5892
in the city
H1732
of David.
H3088
And Jehoram
H1121
his son
H4427 [H8799]
reigned in his stead.
2
H251
And he had brethren
H1121
the sons
H3092
of Jehoshaphat,
H5838
Azariah,
H3171
and Jehiel,
H2148
and Zechariah,
H5838
and Azariah,
H4317
and Michael,
H8203
and Shephatiah:
H1121
all these were the sons
H3092
of Jehoshaphat
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel.
3
H1
And their father
H5414 [H8799]
gave
H7227
them great
H4979
gifts
H3701
of silver,
H2091
and of gold,
H4030
and of precious things,
H4694
with fortified
H5892
cities
H3063
in Judah:
H4467
but the kingdom
H5414 [H8804]
he gave
H3088
to Jehoram;
H1060
because he was the firstborn.
4
H3088
Now when Jehoram
H6965 [H8799]
had risen
H4467
to the kingdom
H1
of his father,
H2388 [H8691]
he strengthened
H2026 [H8799]
himself, and slew
H251
all his brethren
H2719
with the sword,
H8269
and others also of the princes
H3478
of Israel.
5
H3088
Jehoram
H7970
was thirty
H8147
and two
H8141
years
H1121
old
H4427 [H8800]
when he began to reign,
H4427 [H8804]
and he reigned
H8083
eight
H8141
years
H3389
in Jerusalem.
6
H3212 [H8799]
And he walked
H1870
in the way
H4428
of the kings
H3478
of Israel,
H6213 [H8804]
as did
H1004
the house
H256
of Ahab:
H1323
for he had the daughter
H256
of Ahab
H802
for a wife:
H6213 [H8799]
and he wrought
H7451
that which was evil
H5869
in the eyes
H3068
of the LORD.
7
H3068
Yet the LORD
H14 [H8804]
would
H7843 [H8687]
not decay
H1004
the house
H1732
of David,
H1285
because of the covenant
H3772 [H8804]
that he had made
H1732
with David,
H559 [H8804]
and as he promised
H5414 [H8800]
to give
H5216
a light
H1121
to him and to his sons
H3117
for ever.
8
H3117
In his days
H123
the Edomites
H6586 [H8804]
revolted
H3027
from under the dominion
H3063
of Judah,
H4427 [H8686]
and made
H4428
themselves a king.
9
H3088
Then Jehoram
H5674 [H8799]
went forth
H8269
with his princes,
H7393
and all his chariots
H6965 [H8804]
with him: and he rose
H3915
by night,
H5221 [H8686]
and smote
H123
the Edomites
H5437 [H8802]
who surrounded him,
H8269
and the captains
H7393
of the chariots.
10
H123
So the Edomites
H6586 [H8799]
revolted
H3027
from under the hand
H3063
of Judah
H3117
to this day.
H6256
The same time
H3841
also did Libnah
H6586 [H8799]
revolt
H3027
from under his hand;
H5800 [H8804]
because he had forsaken
H3068
the LORD
H430
God
H1
of his fathers.
11
H6213 [H8804]
Moreover he made
H1116
high places
H2022
in the mountains
H3063
of Judah,
H3427 [H8802]
and caused the inhabitants
H3389
of Jerusalem
H2181 [H8686]
to play the harlot,
H5080 [H8686]
and compelled
H3063
Judah to do the same.
12
H935 [H8799]
And there came
H4385
a writing
H452
to him from Elijah
H5030
the prophet,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H559 [H8804]
Thus saith
H3068
the LORD
H430
God
H1732
of David
H1
thy father,
H1980 [H8804]
Because thou hast not walked
H1870
in the ways
H3092
of Jehoshaphat
H1
thy father,
H1870
nor in the ways
H609
of Asa
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah,
13
H3212 [H8799]
But hast walked
H1870
in the way
H4428
of the kings
H3478
of Israel,
H3063
and hast made Judah
H3427 [H8802]
and the inhabitants
H3389
of Jerusalem
H2181 [H8686]
to play the harlot,
H2181 [H8687]
like the harlotries
H1004
of the house
H256
of Ahab,
H2026 [H8804]
and also hast slain
H251
thy brethren
H1
of thy father's
H1004
house,
H2896
who were better than thyself:
14
H1419
Behold, with a great
H4046
plague
H3068
will the LORD
H5062 [H8802]
smite
H5971
thy people,
H1121
and thy sons,
H802
and thy wives,
H7399
and all thy goods:
15
H7227
And thou shalt have great
H2483
sickness
H4245
by disease
H4578
of thy bowels,
H4578
until thy bowels
H3318 [H8799]
fall out
H2483
by reason of the sickness
H3117
day
H3117
by day.
16
H3068
Moreover the LORD
H5782 [H8686]
stirred up
H3088
against Jehoram
H7307
the spirit
H6430
of the Philistines,
H6163
and of the Arabians,
H5921 H3027
that were near
H3569
the Cushites:
17
H5927 [H8799]
And they came up
H3063
into Judah,
H1234 [H8799]
and broke
H7617 [H8799]
into it, and carried away
H7399
all the substance
H4672 [H8737]
that was found
H4428
in the king's
H1004
house,
H1121
and his sons
H802
also, and his wives;
H1121
so that there was not a son
H7604 [H8738]
left
H3059
to him, except Jehoahaz,
H6996
the youngest
H1121
of his sons.
18
H310
And after
H3068
all this the LORD
H5062 [H8804]
smote
H4578
him in his bowels
H369 H4832
with an incurable
H2483
disease.
19
H3117
And it came to pass, that in process of time,
H3318 H6256 [H8800]
after
H7093
the end
H8147
of two
H3117
years,
H4578
his bowels
H3318 [H8804]
fell out
H5973
by reason
H2483
of his sickness:
H4191 [H8799]
so he died
H7451
of grievous
H8463
diseases.
H5971
And his people
H6213 [H8804]
made
H8316
no burning
H8316
for him, like the burning
H1
of his fathers.
20
H7970
Thirty
H8147
and two
H1121
years old
H4427 [H8800]
was he when he began to reign,
H4427 [H8804]
and he reigned
H3389
in Jerusalem
H8083
eight
H8141
years,
H3212 [H8799]
and departed
H2532
without being desired.
H6912 [H8799]
Yet they buried
H5892
him in the city
H1732
of David,
H6913
but not in the burying-places
H4428
of the kings.
