Berean Standard Bible
And Jehoshaphat lieth
with his fathers ,
and is
buried with his
fathers
in the city of David ,
and Jehoram
his son reigneth
in his stead
.
And Jehoshaphat rested
with his fathers and was
buried with them
in the City of David .
And his son Jehoram
reigned
in his place
.
And
he
hath
brethren
, sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and
Jehiel, and
Zechariah, and
Azariah, and
Michael, and Shephatiah; all
these `are'
sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel ,
Jehoram’s
brothers
, the
sons of Jehoshaphat, were
Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah; these were
all
sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel .
and
their father giveth
to
them many gifts of silver and of
gold ,
and of
precious things, with
fenced
cities in Judah ,
and
the kingdom he
hath
given
to Jehoram ,
for
He `is'
the first-born
.
Their father had
given
them many gifts of silver and gold and precious things, as
well
as
the
fortified
cities in Judah ;
but
he
gave
the kingdom to Jehoram because
he was
the firstborn
.
And
Jehoram riseth
up
over the
kingdom
of
his father
, and
strengtheneth
himself ,
and
slayeth
all his brethren
with the
sword,
and
also
--
of the heads
of Israel.
When
Jehoram had
established
himself
over his father’s
kingdom
, he
strengthened
himself by
putting
to
the
sword
all his brothers
along
with some
of the princes
of Israel.
A
son
of
thirty and
two years `is'
Jehoram
in
his
reigning
, and eight
years
he hath
reigned in Jerusalem ,
Jehoram
was
thirty -
two years old
when
he
became
king
, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight
years.
and he
walketh
in the way
of the kings of Israel, as did
the house of Ahab ,
for a daughter of Ahab hath
been
to
him
for
a
wife,
and he
doth
the
evil thing
in the eyes
of Jehovah,
And Jehoram
walked
in the ways
of the kings of Israel, just
as the house of Ahab had
done.
For he
married
a daughter of Ahab and did
evil in the sight
of the
LORD.
and
Jehovah
hath
not
been
willing
to destroy the house of David, for
the
sake
of the covenant that
He made with David, and as
He had said
to
give
to him
a lamp ,
and to
his sons
--
all
the
days
.
Yet
the
LORD
was
unwilling
to destroy the house of David, because
of the covenant He had
made with David, and since
He had promised
to maintain
a lamp for
David
and his descendants
forever
.
In his
days hath
Edom revolted
from
under
the hand of Judah ,
and cause
a
king to
reign
over
them;
In the
days of
Jehoram,
Edom rebelled
against
the hand of Judah and appointed
their
own
king .
and
Jehoram passeth
over
with his heads,
and all the
chariots with
him ,
and it
cometh
to
pass
, he hath
risen
by night and
smiteth
the
Edomites
who
are
coming
round
against
him,
and
the
princes
of
the
chariots,
So
Jehoram crossed
into
Edom
with his officers
and all his
chariots .
When
the
Edomites
surrounded
him and his
chariot
commanders
, he rose
up
and
attacked
by night .
and
Edom revolteth
from
under
the hand of Judah unto
this
day;
then
doth
Libnah revolt
at that
time from
under
his
hand
, because he
hath
forsaken Jehovah
, God of his fathers ,
So
to
this
day
Edom has
been
in
rebellion
against
the hand of Judah .
Likewise,
Libnah rebelled
against
his
rule
at the
same
time, because Jehoram
had
forsaken the
LORD
, the
God of his fathers .
also ,
he
hath
made
high places in
the mountains
of Judah ,
and
causeth
the inhabitants
of Jerusalem to commit
whoredom,
and compelleth
Judah.
Jehoram
had
also built
high places on
the hills
of Judah ;
he
had
caused
the people
of Jerusalem to prostitute
themselves
and had
led
Judah astray
.
And
there
cometh
in
unto
him
a writing
from Elijah the prophet, saying,
`Thus
said
Jehovah
, God of David
thy
father, Because
that
thou
hast
not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat
thy
father ,
and
in
the
ways
of Asa king of Judah,
Then
a letter
came
to
Jehoram
from Elijah the prophet, which
stated:
“This
is
what
the
LORD
, the
God of your
father David
, says:
‘You
have
not walked in the ways of your
father Jehoshaphat
or
of Asa king of Judah,
and
thou
dost
walk
in the way
of the kings of Israel ,
and dost
cause
Judah and the inhabitants
of Jerusalem to commit
whoredom
like
the
whoredoms
of
the house of Ahab ,
and
also thy
brethren
, the
house
of
thy
father
, who are
better than thyself,
thou
hast
slain;
but
you
have
walked
in the ways
of the kings of Israel and have
caused
Judah and the people
of Jerusalem to prostitute
themselves,
just
as
the house of Ahab prostituted
itself.
You
have
also killed
your
brothers
, your
father’s
family
, who were
better than you.
lo
, Jehovah
is smiting
--
a
great
smiting
--
among
thy
people, and
among
thy
sons, and
among
thy
wives, and among
all thy
goods
--
So
behold
, the
LORD
is about
to
strike
your
people, your
sons, your
wives, and all your
possessions
with
a
serious
blow.
and thou,
with
many
sicknesses
, with
disease of thy
bowels, till
thy
bowels come out ,
by
the
sickness,
day
by
day
. '
And day
after
day
you
yourself
will
suffer
from
a
severe
illness
, a
disease of your
bowels, until
it
causes
your
bowels to
come out. ’”
And
Jehovah
waketh
up
against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines ,
and of
the
Arabians,
who `are'
beside
the Cushim,
Then
the
LORD
stirred
against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and Arabs
who lived
near
the Cushites.
and
they come
up
into
Judah, and
rend
it, and take
captive
all the substance
that
is
found at
the
house
of
the king
, and
also
his sons ,
and his
wives ,
and
there
hath
not been
left to him a
son
except Jehoahaz the
youngest
of
his sons
.
So
they went
to
war
against
Judah, invaded
it, and carried
off
all the possessions
found in
the king’s
palace
, along
with
his sons and wives ;
not a
son
was
left to him except Jehoahaz ,
his youngest
.
And
after all this hath
Jehovah
plagued
him
in
his
bowels
by
a
disease
for
which
there
is
no
healing
,
After all this, the
LORD
afflicted
Jehoram
with
an
incurable
disease
of
the
bowels.
and
it
cometh
to
pass,
from
days
to
days,
and
at
the
time
of
the
going
out
of
the
end
of
two years, his bowels
have
gone
out with
his sickness
, and he dieth
of
sore
diseases,
and his people have
not made
for
him
a burning
like
the
burning
of
his fathers.
This
continued
day
after
day
until
two full
years had
passed.
Finally
, his intestines
came
out because
of
his disease
, and he died
in
severe
pain.
And his people did
not make
a fire
in
his honor
as
they
had
done
for
his
fathers.
A
son
of
thirty and
two `
years '
was
he in
his
reigning
, and eight
years
he hath
reigned in Jerusalem ,
and
he goeth
without
desire
, and they
bury
him
in the city of David, and
not in the graves
of the kings.
Jehoram
was
thirty -
two years old
when
he became
king
, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight
years.
He died
, to
no
one’s
regret,
and was
buried
in the City of David, but
not in the tombs
of the kings.
