2 Chronicles - Chapter: 21

>
21:1Now Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son reigned in his stead.
21:2And 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.
21:3And 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.
21:4Now 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.
21:5Jehoram was thirty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
21:6And 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 the LORD.
21:7Howbeit the LORD 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.
21:8In his days the Edomites revolted from under the dominion of Judah, and made themselves a king.
21:9Then 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.
21:10So 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 the LORD God of his fathers.
21:11Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit fornication, and compelled Judah thereto.
21:12And there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus saith the LORD God 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,
21:13But 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:
21:14Behold, with a great plague will the LORD smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wives, and all thy goods:
21:15And thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day.
21:16Moreover the LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, that were near the Ethiopians:
21:17And 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.
21:18And after all this the LORD smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
21:19And 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.
21:20Thirty 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.

 

21:1וישׁכב יהושׁפט עם אבתיו ויקבר עם אבתיו בעיר דויד וימלך יהורם בנו תחתיו׃
21:2ולו אחים בני יהושׁפט עזריה ויחיאל וזכריהו ועזריהו ומיכאל ושׁפטיהו כל אלה בני יהושׁפט מלך ישׂראל׃
21:3ויתן להם אביהם מתנות רבות לכסף ולזהב ולמגדנות עם ערי מצרות ביהודה ואת הממלכה נתן ליהורם כי הוא הבכור׃
21:4ויקם יהורם על ממלכת אביו ויתחזק ויהרג את כל אחיו בחרב וגם משׂרי ישׂראל׃
21:5בן שׁלשׁים ושׁתים שׁנה יהורם במלכו ושׁמונה שׁנים מלך בירושׁלם׃
21:6וילך בדרך מלכי ישׂראל כאשׁר עשׂו בית אחאב כי בת אחאב היתה לו אשׁה ויעשׂ הרע בעיני יהוה׃
21:7ולא אבה יהוה להשׁחית את בית דויד למען הברית אשׁר כרת לדויד וכאשׁר אמר לתת לו ניר ולבניו כל הימים׃
21:8בימיו פשׁע אדום מתחת יד יהודה וימליכו עליהם מלך׃
21:9ויעבר יהורם עם שׂריו וכל הרכב עמו ויהי קם לילה ויך את אדום הסובב אליו ואת שׂרי הרכב׃
21:10ויפשׁע אדום מתחת יד יהודה עד היום הזה אז תפשׁע לבנה בעת ההיא מתחת ידו כי עזב את יהוה אלהי אבתיו׃
21:11גם הוא עשׂה במות בהרי יהודה ויזן את ישׁבי ירושׁלם וידח את יהודה׃
21:12ויבא אליו מכתב מאליהו הנביא לאמר כה אמר יהוה אלהי דויד אביך תחת אשׁר לא הלכת בדרכי יהושׁפט אביך ובדרכי אסא מלך יהודה׃
21:13ותלך בדרך מלכי ישׂראל ותזנה את יהודה ואת ישׁבי ירושׁלם כהזנות בית אחאב וגם את אחיך בית אביך הטובים ממך הרגת׃
21:14הנה יהוה נגף מגפה גדולה בעמך ובבניך ובנשׁיך ובכל רכושׁך׃
21:15ואתה בחליים רבים במחלה מעיך עד יצאו מעיך מן החלי ימים על ימים׃
21:16ויער יהוה על יהורם את רוח הפלשׁתים והערבים אשׁר על יד כושׁים׃
21:17ויעלו ביהודה ויבקעוה וישׁבו את כל הרכושׁ הנמצא לבית המלך וגם בניו ונשׁיו ולא נשׁאר לו בן כי אם יהואחז קטן בניו׃
21:18ואחרי כל זאת נגפו יהוה במעיו לחלי לאין מרפא׃
21:19ויהי לימים מימים וכעת צאת הקץ לימים שׁנים יצאו מעיו עם חליו וימת בתחלאים רעים ולא עשׂו לו עמו שׂרפה כשׂרפת אבתיו׃
21:20בן שׁלשׁים ושׁתים היה במלכו ושׁמונה שׁנים מלך בירושׁלם וילך בלא חמדה ויקברהו בעיר דויד ולא בקברות המלכים׃

 

21:1And Jehoshaphat lieth with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David, and Jehoram his son reigneth in his stead.
21:2And 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,
21:3and 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.
21:4And 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.
21:5A son of thirty and two years `is' Jehoram in his reigning, and eight years he hath reigned in Jerusalem,
21:6and 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,
21:7and 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.
21:8In his days hath Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and cause a king to reign over them;
21:9and 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,
21:10and 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,
21:11also, he hath made high places in the mountains of Judah, and causeth the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit whoredom, and compelleth Judah.
21:12And 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,
21:13and 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;
21:14lo, Jehovah is smiting -- a great smiting -- among thy people, and among thy sons, and among thy wives, and among all thy goods --
21:15and thou, with many sicknesses, with disease of thy bowels, till thy bowels come out, by the sickness, day by day.'
21:16And Jehovah waketh up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, who `are' beside the Cushim,
21:17and 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.
21:18And after all this hath Jehovah plagued him in his bowels by a disease for which there is no healing,
21:19and 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.
21:20A 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.
