2 Kings 8:19-21

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁹ But for the sake of his servant David, the Lord was not willing to destroy Judah, because he had said that he would give a lamp to David and to his sons forever.

²⁰ During his days, Edom broke away from the control of Judah and set a king over themselves. ²¹ So Joram crossed over to Zair with all his chariots. At night he rose up and attacked the Edomites who had surrounded him and his chariot commanders, but his army fled to their tents.^[a]
