2 Chronicles 21:4-7

New International Version

Jehoram King of Judah^(A)

⁴ When Jehoram established^(B) himself firmly over his father’s kingdom, he put all his brothers^(C) to the sword along with some of the officials of Israel. ⁵ Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. ⁶ He followed the ways of the kings of Israel,^(D) as the house of Ahab had done, for he married a daughter of Ahab.^(E) He did evil in the eyes of the Lord. ⁷ Nevertheless, because of the covenant the Lord had made with David,^(F) the Lord was not willing to destroy the house of David.^(G) He had promised to maintain a lamp^(H) for him and his descendants forever.
