16And in the fifth year of Joram son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat being king of Judah, Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah began to reign.17He was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.18He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab did, for a daughter of Ahab was his wife. And he did evil in the eyes of the LORD.19The LORD was not willing to destroy Judah for the sake of David his servant, as he had promised him a lamp for his sons all the days.20In his days Edom rebelled from under the hand of Judah, and a king reigned over them.21And Joram passed over to Tsa'irah and all the chariot with him, and it was—he arose by night and struck Edom, the surrounders to him, and the chiefs of the chariot, and the people fled to his tents.22Edom rebelled from under the hand of Judah until this day. Then Libnah rebelled at that time.23And the rest of the words of Joram and all that he did—are they not written in the book of the words of the days for the kings of Judah?24Joram lay down with his fathers and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.
