15 You will suffer from a chronic intestinal disease until your intestines come out."

2 Chronicles 21:15 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 21:15

And thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels,
&c.] Which was a just retaliation to him, for having no bowels of compassion on his brethren whom he slew:

until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day;
that continuing day after day, and even year after year, the space of two years, as appears from ( 2 Chronicles 21:19 ) .

2 Chronicles 21:15 In-Context

13 Instead, you have followed the ways of the kings of Israel. You, like Ahab's family, have caused Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to chase after foreign gods as if they were prostitutes. You have killed your brothers, your father's family. Your brothers were better than you.

14 The LORD will strike a great blow to your people, your sons, your wives, and all your property because you did this.

15 You will suffer from a chronic intestinal disease until your intestines come out."

16 The LORD prompted the Philistines and the Arabs who lived near the people of Sudan to attack Jehoram.

17 They fought against Judah, broke into the country, and took away everything that could be found in the royal palace. They even took Jehoram's sons and wives. The only son left was Ahaziah, Jehoram's youngest son.
