Divrey Hayamim Bais 21:7 In-Context

5 Yehoram was thirty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned shemoneh shanim in Yerushalayim.

6 And he walked in the derech of the melachim of Yisroel, as did the Bais Ach’av, for he had the Bat Ach’av to wife, and he wrought that which was rah in the eyes of Hashem.

7 However, Hashem was not willing to destroy the Bais Dovid, for the sake of HaBrit that He had cut with Dovid, and since He promised to give a ner (lamp) to him and to his banim kol hayamim.

8 In the days of Yehoram, Edom rebelled from under the yad Yehudah, and made themselves a melech.

9 Then Yehoram went forth with his sarim (princes), and all his chariots with him, and he rose up by lailah, and struck down Edom which had surrounded him, and the commanders of the chariots.
