In his
days the
Edomites revolted from under the
dominion of
Judah, and
made themselves a
king.

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.

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 the
LORD God of his
fathers.

Moreover he
made high
places in the
mountains of
Judah, and caused the
inhabitants of
Jerusalem to commit
fornication, and
compelled Judah thereto.

And 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,

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:

And thou shalt have
great sickness by
disease of thy
bowels, until thy
bowels fall
out by reason of the
sickness day by
day.
