12:008:014 So he departed from Elisha, and came to his master; who said
to him, What said Elisha to thee? And he answered, He told me
that thou shouldest surely recover.
12:008:015 And it came to pass on the morrow, that he took a thick cloth,
and dipped it in water, and spread it on his face, so that he
died: and Hazael reigned in his stead.
12:008:016 And in the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel,
Jehoshaphat being then king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Je
hoshaphat king of Judah began to reign.
12:008:017 Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
12:008:018 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.
12:008:019 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.
12:008:020 In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.
12:008:021 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.
12:008:022 Yet Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.
12:008:023 And the rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, are
they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of
Judah?
