2 Kings 8:16-24

And in the fifth
<02568>
year
<08141>
of Joram
<03141>
the son
<01121>
of Ahab
<0256>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Jehoshaphat
<03092>
[being] then king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
Jehoram
<03088>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoshaphat
<03092>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
began to reign
<04427> (8804)_.
{began...: Heb. reigned}
Thirty
<07970>
and two
<08147>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
was he when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_;
and he reigned
<04427> (8804)
eight
<08083>
years
<08141>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And he walked
<03212> (8799)
in the way
<01870>
of the kings
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
as did
<06213> (8804)
the house
<01004>
of Ahab
<0256>_:
for the daughter
<01323>
of Ahab
<0256>
was his wife
<0802>_:
and he did
<06213> (8799)
evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
Yet the LORD
<03068>
would
<014> (8804)
not destroy
<07843> (8687)
Judah
<03063>
for David
<01732>
his servant's
<05650>
sake, as he promised
<0559> (8804)
him to give
<05414> (8800)
him alway
<03117>
a light
<05216>_,
[and] to his children
<01121>_.
{light: Heb. candle, or, lamp}
In his days
<03117>
Edom
<0123>
revolted
<06586> (8804)
from under the hand
<03027>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and made
<04427> (8686)
a king
<04428>
over themselves.
So Joram
<03141>
went over
<05674> (8799)
to Zair
<06811>_,
and all the chariots
<07393>
with him: and he rose
<06965> (8804)
by night
<03915>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
the Edomites
<0123>
which compassed him about
<05437> (8802)_,
and the captains
<08269>
of the chariots
<07393>_:
and the people
<05971>
fled
<05127> (8799)
into their tents
<0168>_.
Yet Edom
<0123>
revolted
<06586> (8799)
from under the hand
<03027>
of Judah
<03063>
unto this day
<03117>_.
Then Libnah
<03841>
revolted
<06586> (8799)
at the same
<01931>
time
<06256>_.
And the rest
<03499>
of the acts
<01697>
of Joram
<03141>_,
and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,
[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>
of the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_?
And Joram
<03141>
slept
<07901> (8799)
with his fathers
<01>_,
and was buried
<06912> (8735)
with his fathers
<01>
in the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_:
and Ahaziah
<0274>
his son
<01121>
reigned
<04427> (8799)
in his stead. {Ahaziah: also called, Azariah, and Jehoahaz}
