  21:1 ¶
And Jehoshaphat{gr.Josaphat} slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Joran his son reigned in his stead. |
|
21:1 ¶
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.° |
|
21:2
And he had brothers, the six sons of Jehoshaphat{gr.Josaphat}, Azariah{gr.Azarias}, and Jehiel{gr.Jeiel}, and Zechariah{gr.Zacharias}, and Azariah{gr.Azarias}, and Michael, and Zaphatias: all these [were] the sons of Jehoshaphat{gr.Josaphat} king of Judah{gr.Juda}. |
|
21:2
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.° |
|
21:3
And their father gave them many gifts, silver, and gold, and arms, together with fortified cities in Judah{gr.Juda}: but he gave the kingdom to Joram, for he [was] the first-born. |
|
21:3
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.° |
|
21:4
And Joram entered upon his kingdom, and strengthened himself, and slew all his brothers with the sword, and [some] of the princes of Israel. |
|
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.° |
|
21:5 ¶
When he was thirty and two years old, Joram succeeded to his kingdom, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. |
|
21:5 ¶
Jehoram°
[was] thirty°
and two°
years°
old°
when he began to reign,°°
and he reigned°°
eight°
years°
in Jerusalem.° |
|
21:6
And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab{gr.Achaab}; for a daughter of Ahab{gr.Achaab} was his wife: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord: |
|
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 Yahweh.° |
|
21:7
nevertheless the Lord would not utterly destroy the house of David, because of the covenant which he made with David, and as he said to him that he would give a light to him and his sons for ever. |
|
21:7
Howbeit Yahweh°
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.°° |
|
21:8 ¶
In those days Edom revolted from Judah{gr.Juda}, and they made a king over themselves. |
|
21:8 ¶
In his days°
the Edomites°
revolted°°
from under°°
the dominion°
of Judah,°
and made°°°
themselves a king.° |
|
21:9
And Joram went with the princes, and all the cavalry with him: and it came to pass that he arose by night, and smote Edom that compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots, and the people fled to their tents. |
|
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.° |
|
21:10
And Edom revolted from Judah{gr.Juda} until this day. Then Lomna at that time revolted from [under] his hand, because he forsook the Lord God of his fathers. |
|
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°°°
Yahweh°
Elohim°
of his fathers.° |
|
21:11
For he built high places in the cities of Judah{gr.Juda}, and caused the dwellers in Jerusalem to go a-whoring, and led Judah{gr.Juda} astray. |
|
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]. |
|
21:12 ¶
And there came to him [a message] in writing from Elijah{gr.Eliu} the prophet, saying, Thus saith the Lord God of thy father David, Because thou hast not walked in the way of thy father Jehoshaphat{gr.Josaphat}, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah{gr.Juda}, |
|
21:12 ¶
And there came°°
a writing°
to°
him from Elijah°°
the prophet,°
saying,°°
Thus°
saith°°
Yahweh°
Elohim°
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,° |
|
21:13
but hast walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and hast caused Judah{gr.Juda} and the dwellers in Jerusalem to go a-whoring, as the house of Ahab{gr.Achaab} caused [Israel] to go a-whoring, and thou hast slain thy brethren, the sons of thy father, who were better than thyself; |
|
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: |
|
21:14
behold, the Lord shall smite thee with a great plague among thy people, and thy sons, and thy wives, and all thy store: |
|
21:14
Behold,°
with a great°
plague°
will Yahweh°
smite°°
thy people,°
and thy children,°
and thy wives,°
and all°
thy goods:° |
|
21:15
and thou [shalt be afflicted] with a grievous disease, with a disease of the bowels, until thy bowels shall fall out day by day with the sickness. |
|
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.° |
|
21:16 ¶
So the Lord stirred up the Philistines against Joram, and the Arabians, and those who bordered on the Aethiopians: |
|
21:16 ¶
Moreover Yahweh°
stirred up°°
against°
Jehoram°°
the spirit°
of the Philistines,°
and of the Arabians,°
that°
[were] near°°
the Ethiopians:° |
|
21:17
and they went up against Judah{gr.Juda}, and prevailed against them, and took away all the store which they found in the house of the king, and his sons, and his daughters; and there was no son left to him but Ahaziah{gr.Ochozias} the youngest of his sons. |
|
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.° |
|
21:18 ¶
And after all these things the Lord smote him in the bowels with an incurable disease. |
|
21:18 ¶
And after°
all°
this°
Yahweh°
smote°°
him in his bowels°
with an incurable°°
disease.° |
|
21:19
And it continued from day to day: and when the time of the days came [to] two years, his bowels fell out with the disease, and he died by a grievous distemper: and his people performed no funeral, like the funeral of his fathers. |
|
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.° |
|
21:20
He was thirty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. And he departed without honour, and was buried in the city of David, but not in the tombs of the kings. |
|
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.° |
