2 Chronicles 21:4

1 And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers, in the city of David,—and Jehoram his son reigned in his steed.

2 Now, he, had brethren, sons of Jehoshaphat—Azariah and Jehiel and Zechariah and Azariah, and Michael and Shephatiah,—all these, were sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel,

3 and their father gave them large presents—of silver and of gold and of precious things, with cities of defence, in Judah,—but, the kingdom, gave he unto Jehoram, for, he, was the firstborn.

4 But, when Jehoram had arisen over the kingdom of his father, he strengthened himself, and slew all his brethren, with the sword,—moreover also some of the rulers of Israel.

5 Thirty-two years old, was Jehoram when he began to reign,—and, eight years, reigned he in Jerusalem.

6 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, like as did the house of Ahab, for, the daughter of Ahab, had he, to wife,—so he wrought wickedness, in the eyes of Yahweh.

7 Howbeit Yahweh was not willing to destroy the house of David, because of the covenant which he had solemnised, unto David,—and as he had promised to give unto him a lamp, and unto his sons, all the days.
