1 And he lay down Jehoshaphat with ancestors his and he was buried with ancestors his in [the] city of David and he became king Jehoram son his in place of him.
And Jehoshaphat lieth with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David, and Jehoram his son reigneth in his stead.
2 And [belonged] to him brothers [the] sons of Jehoshaphat Azariah and Jehiel and Zechariah and Azariahu and Michael and Shephatiah all these [were] [the] sons of Jehoshaphat [the] king of Israel.
And he hath brethren, sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah; all these [are] sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel,
3 And he had given to them - father their gifts many to silver and to gold and to excellent things with cities of fortifications in Judah and the kingdom he gave to Jehoram for he [was] the firstborn.
and their father giveth to them many gifts of silver and of gold, and of precious things, with fenced cities in Judah, and the kingdom he hath given to Jehoram, for He [is] the first-born.
4 And he arose Jehoram over [the] kingdom of father his and he strengthened himself and he killed all brothers his with the sword and also some of [the] leaders of Israel.
And Jehoram riseth up over the kingdom of his father, and strengtheneth himself, and slayeth all his brethren with the sword, and also — of the heads of Israel.
5 [was] a son of Thirty and two year[s] Jehoram when became king he and eight years he reigned in Jerusalem.
A son of thirty and two years [is] Jehoram in his reigning, and eight years he hath reigned in Jerusalem,
6 And he walked in [the] way of - [the] kings of Israel just as they did [the] house of Ahab for [the] daughter of Ahab she was of him wife and he did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh.
and he walketh in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab, for a daughter of Ahab hath been to him for a wife, and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah,
7 And not he was willing Yahweh to destroy [the] house of David on account of the covenant which he had made to David and since he had said to give to him a lamp and to descendants his all the days.
and Jehovah hath not been willing to destroy the house of David, for the sake of the covenant that He made with David, and as He had said to give to him a lamp, and to his sons — all the days.
8 In days his it rebelled Edom from under [the] hand of Judah and they made king over them a king.
In his days hath Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and cause a king to reign over them;
9 And he passed over Jehoram with commanders his and all the chariotry with him and it was he arose night and he struck down Edom which was surrounding him and [the] commanders of the chariotry.
and Jehoram passeth over with his heads, and all the chariots with him, and it cometh to pass, he hath risen by night and smiteth the Edomites who are coming round against him, and the princes of the chariots,
10 And it has rebelled Edom from under [the] hand of Judah until the day this then it rebelled Libnah at the time that from under hand his for he had forsaken Yahweh [the] God of ancestors his.
and Edom revolteth from under the hand of Judah unto this day; then doth Libnah revolt at that time from under his hand, because he hath forsaken Jehovah, God of his fathers,
11 Also he he made high places in [the] mountains of Judah and he made prostitute [themselves] [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem and he thrust aside Judah.
also, he hath made high places in the mountains of Judah, and causeth the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit whoredom, and compelleth Judah.
12 And it came to him a writing from Elijah the prophet saying thus - he says Yahweh [the] God of David ancestor your because that not you have walked in [the] ways of Jehoshaphat father your and in [the] ways of Asa [the] king of Judah.
And there cometh in unto him a writing from Elijah the prophet, saying, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of David thy father, Because that thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, and in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
13 And you have walked in [the] way of [the] kings of Israel and you have made prostitute [themselves] Judah and [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem as made [them] prostitute [themselves] [the] house of Ahab and also brothers your [the] house of father your good more than you you killed.
and thou dost walk in the way of the kings of Israel, and dost cause Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit whoredom like the whoredoms of the house of Ahab, and also thy brethren, the house of thy father, who are better than thyself, thou hast slain;
14 Here! Yahweh [is] about to strike a blow great on people your and on sons your and on wives your and on all property your.
lo, Jehovah is smiting — a great smiting — among thy people, and among thy sons, and among thy wives, and among all thy goods —
15 And you [will be] in sickness great in [the] sickness of bowels your until they will come out bowels your from the sickness days to days.
and thou, with many sicknesses, with disease of thy bowels, till thy bowels come out, by the sickness, day by day.'
16 And he stirred up Yahweh on Jehoram [the] spirit of the Philistines and the Arabs who [were] on [the] hand [the] Cushites.
And Jehovah waketh up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, who [are] beside the Cushim,
17 And they came up on Judah and they broke into it and they took captive all the property which was found to [the] house of the king and also sons his and wives his and not he remained to him a son that except Jehoahaz [the] young [one] of sons his.
and they come up into Judah, and rend it, and take captive all the substance that is found at the house of the king, and also his sons, and his wives, and there hath not been left to him a son except Jehoahaz the youngest of his sons.
18 And after all this he struck him Yahweh - in bowels his to a sickness to there not [was] healing.
And after all this hath Jehovah plagued him in his bowels by a disease for which there is no healing,
19 And it was to days - from days and about [the] time of [the] going out of the end of days two they came out bowels his with sickness his and he died in diseases harmful and not they made for him people his a burning like [the] burning of ancestors his.
and it cometh to pass, from days to days, and at the time of the going out of the end of two years, his bowels have gone out with his sickness, and he dieth of sore diseases, and his people have not made for him a burning like the burning of his fathers.
20 A son of thirty and two [years] he was when became king he and eight years he reigned in Jerusalem and he went with not desire and people buried him in [the] city of David and not in [the] graves of the kings.
A son of thirty and two [years] was he in his reigning, and eight years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and he goeth without desire, and they bury him in the city of David, and not in the graves of the kings.
