3 Their father gave them great gifts of silver and gold and precious things, with fortified cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.
4 Now when Jehoram was established over the kingdom of his father, he strengthened himself and killed all his brothers with the sword, and also others of the princes of Israel.
5 aJehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
6 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done, for he had the daughter of aAhab as a wife; and he did evil in the sight of the Lord.
7 Yet the Lord would not destroy the house of David, because of the acovenant that He had made with David, and since He had promised to give a lamp to him and to his bsons forever.
8 aIn his days Edom revolted against Judah’s authority, and made a king over themselves.
