21 Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers and was buried “ with his fathers in David’s burg. Jehoram his son reigned instead of him. 2 He had several kinsmen, sons of Jehoshaphat, Azarlah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Michael, and Shephatiah; all of these were sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel, 3 and their father had presented them with rich gifts of silver, gold, and valuables, as well as with fortified towns in Judah, but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram, since he was the eldest son. 4 When Jehoram ascended his father’s throne, he put all his brothers to death, along with a number of the nobility in Israel. 5 Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem for eight years. 6 He lived on the lines of the kings of Israel, following the dynasty of Ahab—-for he was married to Ahab’s daughter. He did what was evil in the eyes of the Eternal, 7 but the Eternal would not destroy the dynasty of David, for the sake of the compact he had made with David, and as he had promised David and his descendants a dynasty for all time.
8 During his reign Edom revolted from Judah and set up a king for itself. 9 Whereupon Jehoram invaded them with his officers and all his chariots; he attacked them by night, defeating the Edomites who surrounded him and the officers of his chariots. 10 Edom to this day is in rebellion against Judah. Libnah at the same time revolted from Jehoram, because he had forsaken the Eternal the God of his fathers. 11 He actually set up shrines on the hills of Judah and seduced the citizens of Jerusalem into idolatry; he made Judah unfaithful. 12 So a letter reached him from the prophet Elijah, which ran thus: “The Eternal the God of your father David declares that as you have not lived on the lines of your father Jehoshaphat or of Asa king of Judah, 13 but on the lines of the kings of Israel, as you have seduced Judah and the citizens of Jerusalem into idolatry like that of the dynasty of Ahab, as you have murdered your own brothers, better men than yourself, 14 the Eternal will strike heavily at your nation, your children, your wives, and all you possess; 15 and you shall suffer cruelly from a disease in your bowels, till your bowels drop out with disease year after year.”
16 So the Eternal roused up against Jehoram the Philistines and Arabians who adjoin the Ethiopians; 17 they attacked Judah, broke into the country, and carried off all the possessions to be found in the royal household, along with the king’s sons and wives, till not a soul was left him except Jehoahaz, the youngest son. 18 After that the Eternal punished him with an incurable disease of the bowels. 19 In due time, at the end of two years, his bowels dropped out, owing to the disease, and he died in sharp pain. His people lit no bonfire for him, as for his fathers. 20 He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned for eight years in Jerusalem; he died with no one to regret him, and he was buried in David’s burg, though not in the tombs of the kings.
