2nd Chronicles Chapter 21 - King James Strong Number Version

1
Now Jehoshaphat <H3092> slept <H7901> with his fathers, <H0001> and was buried <H6912> with his fathers <H0001> in the city <H5892> of David. <H1732> And Jehoram <H3088> his son <H1121> reigned <H4427> in his stead.
2
And he had brethren <H0251> the sons <H1121> of Jehoshaphat, <H3092> Azariah, <H5838> and Jehiel, <H3171> and Zechariah, <H2148> and Azariah, <H5838> and Michael, <H4317> and Shephatiah: <H8203> all these [were] the sons <H1121> of Jehoshaphat <H3092> king <H4428> of Israel. <H3478>
3
And their father <H0001> gave <H5414> them great <H7227> gifts <H4979> of silver, <H3701> and of gold, <H2091> and of precious things, <H4030> with fenced <H4694> cities <H5892> in Judah: <H3063> but the kingdom <H4467> gave <H5414> he to Jehoram; <H3088> because he [was] the firstborn. <H1060>
4
Now when Jehoram <H3088> was risen up <H6965> to the kingdom <H4467> of his father, <H0001> he strengthened <H2388> himself, and slew <H2026> all his brethren <H0251> with the sword, <H2719> and [divers] also of the princes <H8269> of Israel. <H3478>
5
Jehoram <H3088> [was] thirty <H7970> and two <H8147> years <H8141> old <H1121> when he began to reign, <H4427> and he reigned <H4427> eight <H8083> years <H8141> in Jerusalem. <H3389>
6
And he walked <H3212> in the way <H1870> of the kings <H4428> of Israel, <H3478> like as did <H6213> the house <H1004> of Ahab: <H0256> for he had the daughter <H1323> of Ahab <H0256> to wife: <H0802> and he wrought <H6213> [that which was] evil <H7451> in the eyes <H5869> of the LORD. <H3068>
7
Howbeit the LORD <H3068> would <H0014> not destroy <H7843> the house <H1004> of David, <H1732> because of the covenant <H1285> that he had made <H3772> with David, <H1732> and as he promised <H0559> to give <H5414> a light <H5216> to him and to his sons <H1121> for ever. <H3605> <H3117>
8
In his days <H3117> the Edomites <H0123> revolted <H6586> from under the dominion <H3027> of Judah, <H3063> and made <H4427> themselves a king. <H4428>
9
Then Jehoram <H3088> went forth <H5674> with his princes, <H8269> and all his chariots <H7393> with him: and he rose up <H6965> by night, <H3915> and smote <H5221> the Edomites <H0123> which compassed <H5437> him in, and the captains <H8269> of the chariots. <H7393>
10
So the Edomites <H0123> revolted <H6586> from under the hand <H3027> of Judah <H3063> unto this day. <H3117> The same time <H6256> [also] did Libnah <H3841> revolt <H6586> from under his hand; <H3027> because he had forsaken <H5800> the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of his fathers. <H0001>
11
Moreover he made <H6213> high places <H1116> in the mountains <H2022> of Judah, <H3063> and caused the inhabitants <H3427> of Jerusalem <H3389> to commit fornication, <H2181> and compelled <H5080> Judah <H3063> [thereto].
12
And there came <H0935> a writing <H4385> to him from Elijah <H0452> the prophet, <H5030> saying, <H0559> Thus saith <H0559> the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of David <H1732> thy father, <H0001> Because thou hast not walked <H1980> in the ways <H1870> of Jehoshaphat <H3092> thy father, <H0001> nor in the ways <H1870> of Asa <H0609> king <H4428> of Judah, <H3063>
13
But hast walked <H3212> in the way <H1870> of the kings <H4428> of Israel, <H3478> and hast made Judah <H3063> and the inhabitants <H3427> of Jerusalem <H3389> to go a whoring, <H2181> like to the whoredoms <H2181> of the house <H1004> of Ahab, <H0256> and also hast slain <H2026> thy brethren <H0251> of thy father's <H0001> house, <H1004> [which were] better <H2896> than thyself:
14
Behold, with a great <H1419> plague <H4046> will the LORD <H3068> smite <H5062> thy people, <H5971> and thy children, <H1121> and thy wives, <H0802> and all thy goods: <H7399>
15
And thou [shalt have] great <H7227> sickness <H2483> by disease <H4245> of thy bowels, <H4578> until thy bowels <H4578> fall out <H3318> by reason of the sickness <H2483> day <H3117> by day. <H3117>
16
Moreover the LORD <H3068> stirred up <H5782> against Jehoram <H3088> the spirit <H7307> of the Philistines, <H6430> and of the Arabians, <H6163> that [were] near <H5921> <H3027> the Ethiopians: <H3569>
17
And they came up <H5927> into Judah, <H3063> and brake <H1234> into it, and carried away <H7617> all the substance <H7399> that was found <H4672> in the king's <H4428> house, <H1004> and his sons <H1121> also, and his wives; <H0802> so that there was never a son <H1121> left <H7604> him, save Jehoahaz, <H3059> the youngest <H6996> of his sons. <H1121>
18
And after <H0310> all this the LORD <H3068> smote <H5062> him in his bowels <H4578> with an incurable <H0369> <H4832> disease. <H2483>
19
And it came to pass, that in process of time, <H3117> <H3117> after <H3318> <H6256> the end <H7093> of two <H8147> years, <H3117> his bowels <H4578> fell out <H3318> by reason <H5973> of his sickness: <H2483> so he died <H4191> of sore <H7451> diseases. <H8463> And his people <H5971> made <H6213> no burning <H8316> for him, like the burning <H8316> of his fathers. <H0001>
20
Thirty <H7970> and two <H8147> years old <H1121> was he when he began to reign, <H4427> and he reigned <H4427> in Jerusalem <H3389> eight <H8083> years, <H8141> and departed <H3212> without being desired. <H2532> Howbeit they buried <H6912> him in the city <H5892> of David, <H1732> but not in the sepulchres <H6913> of the kings. <H4428>
