                                    JEHORAM




1KI 22:50  And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his
fathers in the city of David his father: and Jehoram his son reigned in his
stead.  

2KI 8:16  And in the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel,
Jehoshaphat being then king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of
Judah began to reign.  

2KI 8:18  And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of
Ahab: for the daughter of Ahab was his wife: and he did evil in the sight of the
LORD.  

2KI 8:19  Yet the LORD would not destroy Judah for David his servant's sake, as
he promised him to give him alway a light, and to his children.  

2KI 8:20  In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a
king over themselves.  

2KI 8:21  So Joram went over to Zair, and all the chariots with him: and he rose
by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him about, and the captains of
the chariots: and the people fled into their tents.  

2KI 8:22  Yet Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. Then
Libnah revolted at the same time.  

2KI 8:24  And Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in
the city of David: and Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.  

1CH 3:11  Joram his son, Ahaziah his son, Joash his son,  

2CH 21:4  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.  

2CH 21:5  Jehoram was thirty and two years old when he began to reign, and he
reigned eight years in Jerusalem.  

2CH 21:6  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.  

2CH 21:7  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.  

2CH 21:8  In his days the Edomites revolted from under the dominion of Judah,
and made themselves a king.  

2CH 21:9  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.  

2CH 21:10  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.  

2CH 21:11  Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah and caused the
inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit fornication, and compelled Judah thereto.  

2CH 21:12  And there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus
saith the LORD God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the ways
of Jehoshaphat thy father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,  

2CH 21:13  But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made
Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a whoring, like to the whoredoms of
the house of Ahab, and also hast slain thy brethren of thy father's house, which
were better than thyself:  

2CH 21:14  Behold, with a great plague will the LORD smite thy people, and thy
children, and thy wives, and all thy goods:  

2CH 21:15  And thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels, until
thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day.  

2CH 21:16  Moreover the LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the
Philistines, and of the Arabians, that were near the Ethiopians:  

2CH 21:17  And they came up into Judah, and brake into it, and carried away all
the substance that was found in the king's house, and his sons also, and his
wives; so that there was never a son left him, save Jehoahaz, the youngest of
his sons.  

2CH 21:18  And after all this the LORD smote him in his bowels with an incurable
disease.  

2CH 21:19  And it came to pass, that in process of time, after the end of two
years, his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness: so he died of sore
diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning of his
fathers.  

2CH 21:20  Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he
reigned in Jerusalem eight years, and departed without being desired. Howbeit
they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
