King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. Now Jehoshaphat[H3092] slept[H7901] with[H5973] his fathers,[H1] and was buried[H6912] with[H5973] his fathers[H1] in the city[H5892] of David.[H1732] And Jehoram[H3088] his son[H1121] reigned[H4427] in his stead.[H8478]

2. And he had brethren[H251] the sons[H1121] of Jehoshaphat,[H3092] Azariah,[H5838] and Jehiel,[H3171] and Zechariah,[H2148] and Azariah,[H5838] and Michael,[H4317] and Shephatiah:[H8203] all[H3605] these[H428] were the sons[H1121] of Jehoshaphat[H3092] king[H4428] of Israel.[H3478]

3. And their father[H1] gave[H5414] them great[H7227] gifts[H4979] of silver,[H3701] and of gold,[H2091] and of precious things,[H4030] with[H5973] fenced[H4694] cities[H5892] in Judah:[H3063] but the kingdom[H4467] gave[H5414] he to Jehoram;[H3088] because[H3588] he[H1931] was the firstborn.[H1060]

4. Now when Jehoram[H3088] was risen up[H6965] to[H5921] the kingdom[H4467] of his father,[H1] he strengthened himself,[H2388] and slew[H2026] [H853] all[H3605] his brethren[H251] with the sword,[H2719] and divers also[H1571] of the princes[H4480] [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[H1980] in the way[H1870] of the kings[H4428] of Israel,[H3478] like as[H834] did[H6213] the house[H1004] of Ahab:[H256] for[H3588] he had[H1961] the daughter[H1323] of Ahab[H256] to wife:[H802] and he wrought[H6213] that which was evil[H7451] in the eyes[H5869] of the LORD.[H3068]

7. Howbeit the LORD[H3068] would[H14] not[H3808] destroy[H7843] [H853] the house[H1004] of David,[H1732] because of[H4616] the covenant[H1285] that[H834] he had made[H3772] with David,[H1732] and as[H834] he promised[H559] to give[H5414] a light[H5216] to him and to his sons[H1121] forever.[H3605] [H3117]

8. In his days[H3117] the Edomites[H123] revolted[H6586] from under[H4480] [H8478] the dominion[H3027] of Judah,[H3063] and made[H4427] [H5921] themselves a king.[H4428]

9. Then Jehoram[H3088] went forth[H5674] with[H5973] his princes,[H8269] and all[H3605] his chariots[H7393] with[H5973] him: and he rose up[H1961] [H6965] by night,[H3915] and smote[H5221] [H853] the Edomites[H123] which compassed[H5437] [H413] him in, and the captains[H8269] of the chariots.[H7393]

10. So the Edomites[H123] revolted[H6586] from under[H4480] [H8478] the hand[H3027] of Judah[H3063] unto[H5704] this[H2088] day.[H3117] The same[H1931] time[H6256] also did Libnah[H3841] revolt[H6586] from under[H4480] [H8478] his hand;[H3027] because[H3588] he had forsaken[H5800] [H853] the LORD[H3068] God[H430] of his fathers.[H1]

11. Moreover[H1571] he[H1931] made[H6213] high places[H1116] in the mountains[H2022] of Judah,[H3063] and caused[H853] the inhabitants[H3427] of Jerusalem[H3389] to commit fornication,[H2181] and compelled[H5080] [H853] Judah[H3063] thereto.

12. And there came[H935] a writing[H4385] to[H413] him from Elijah[H4480] [H452] the prophet,[H5030] saying,[H559] Thus[H3541] saith[H559] the LORD[H3068] God[H430] of David[H1732] thy father,[H1] Because[H8478] [H834] thou hast not[H3808] walked[H1980] in the ways[H1870] of Jehoshaphat[H3092] thy father,[H1] nor in the ways[H1870] of Asa[H609] king[H4428] of Judah,[H3063]

13. But hast walked[H1980] in the way[H1870] of the kings[H4428] of Israel,[H3478] and hast made[H853] 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,[H256] and also[H1571] hast slain[H2026] [H853] thy brethren[H251] of thy father's[H1] house,[H1004] which were better[H2896] than[H4480] thyself:

14. Behold,[H2009] with a great[H1419] plague[H4046] will the LORD[H3068] smite[H5062] thy people,[H5971] and thy children,[H1121] and thy wives,[H802] and all[H3605] thy goods: [H7399]

15. And thou[H859] shalt have great[H7227] sickness[H2483] by disease[H4245] of thy bowels,[H4578] until[H5704] thy bowels[H4578] fall out[H3318] by reason of[H4480] the sickness[H2483] day[H3117] by[H5921] day.[H3117]

16. Moreover the LORD[H3068] stirred up[H5782] against[H5921] Jehoram[H3088] [H853] the spirit[H7307] of the Philistines,[H6430] and of the Arabians,[H6163] that[H834] were near[H5921] [H3027] the Ethiopians: [H3569]

17. And they came up[H5927] into Judah,[H3063] and broke into[H1234] it, and carried away[H7617] [H853] all[H3605] the substance[H7399] that was found[H4672] in the king's[H4428] house,[H1004] and his sons[H1121] also,[H1571] and his wives;[H802] so that there was never[H3808] a son[H1121] left[H7604] him, save[H3588] [H518] Jehoahaz,[H3059] the youngest[H6996] of his sons.[H1121]

18. And after[H310] all[H3605] this[H2063] the LORD[H3068] smote[H5062] him in his bowels[H4578] with an incurable[H369] [H4832] disease.[H2483]

19. And it came to pass,[H1961] that in process of time,[H3117] [H4480] [H3117] after the end[H6256] [H3318] [H7093] of two[H8147] years,[H3117] his bowels[H4578] fell out[H3318] by reason of[H5973] his sickness:[H2483] so he died[H4191] of sore[H7451] diseases.[H8463] And his people[H5971] made[H6213] no[H3808] burning[H8316] for him, like the burning[H8316] of his fathers.[H1]

20. Thirty[H7970] and two[H8147] years old[H1121] was[H1961] he when he began to reign,[H4427] and he reigned[H4427] in Jerusalem[H3389] eight[H8083] years,[H8141] and departed[H1980] without[H3808] being desired.[H2532] Howbeit they buried[H6912] him in the city[H5892] of David,[H1732] but not[H3808] in the sepulchers[H6913] of the kings.[H4428]
