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?

12:008:024 And Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his
           fathers in the city of David:  and Ahaziah his son reigned in
           his stead.

12:008:025 In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel
           did Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah begin to reign.

12:008:026 Two and twenty years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign;
           and he reigned one year in Jerusalem.  And his mother’s name
           was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri king of Israel.

12:008:027 And he walked in the way of the house of Ahab, and did evil in
           the sight of the lord, as did the house of Ahab:  for he was
           the son in law of the house of Ahab.

12:008:028 And he went with Joram the son of Ahab to the war against
           Hazael king of Syria in Ramothgilead; and the Syrians wounded
           Joram.

12:008:029 And king Joram went back to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds
           which the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought
           against Hazael king of Syria.  And Ahaziah the son of Jehoram
           king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in
           Jezreel, because he was sick.

12:009:001 And Elisha the prophet called one of the children of the
           prophets, and said unto him, Gird up thy loins, and take this
           box of oil in thine hand, and go to Ramothgilead:
