Bible. Chronicles, 2nd
14:020:032 And he walked in the way of Asa his father, and departed not
from it, doing that which was right in the sight of the LORD.
14:020:033 Howbeit the high places were not taken away: for as yet the
people had not prepared their hearts unto the God of their
fathers.
14:020:034 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last,
behold, they are written in the book of Jehu the son of
Hanani, who is mentioned in the book of the kings of Israel.
14:020:035 And after this did Jehoshaphat king of Judah join himself with
Ahaziah king of Israel, who did very wickedly:
14:020:036 And he joined himself with him to make ships to go to
Tarshish: and they made the ships in Eziongaber.
14:020:037 Then Eliezer the son of Dodavah of Mareshah prophesied against
Jehoshaphat, saying, Because thou hast joined thyself with
Ahaziah, the LORD hath broken thy works. And the ships were
broken, that they were not able to go to Tarshish.
14:021:001 Now Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with
his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son reigned
in his stead.
14:021:002 And he had brethren the sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and
Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and
Shephatiah: all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of
Israel.
14:021:003 And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold,
and of precious things, with fenced cities in Judah: but the
kingdom gave he to Jehoram; because he was the firstborn.
14:021:004 Now when Jehoram was risen up to the kingdom of his father, he
strengthened himself, and slew all his brethren with the
sword, and divers also of the princes of Israel.
14:021:005 Jehoram was thirty and two years old when he began to reign,
and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
14:021:006 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, like as did
the house of Ahab: for he had the daughter of Ahab to wife:
and he wrought that which was evil in the eyes of the LORD.
14:021:007 Howbeit the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because
of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he
promised to give a light to him and to his sons for ever.
14:021:008 In his days the Edomites revolted from under the dominion of
Judah, and made themselves a king.
14:021:009 Then Jehoram went forth with his princes, and all his chariots
with him: and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites
which compassed him in, and the captains of the chariots.
14:021:010 So the Edomites revolted from under the hand of Judah unto
this day. The same time also did Libnah revolt from under his
hand; because he had forsaken the LORD God of his fathers.
