2 Chronicles 21:11

Compare all

9 So Jehoram went out with his officers, and all his chariots with him. And he rose by night and attacked the Edomites who had surrounded him and the captains of the chariots.

10 Thus Edom has been in revolt against Judah’s authority to this day. At that time Libnah revolted against his rule, because he had forsaken the Lord God of his fathers.

11 Moreover he made¹ high places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to ^acommit harlotry, and led Judah astray.

12 And a letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying,
Thus says the Lord God of your father David:
Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, or in the ways of Asa king of Judah,

13 but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have ^amade Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to ^bplay the harlot like the ^charlotry of the house of Ahab, and also have ^dkilled your brothers, those of your father’s household, who were better than yourself,

14 behold, the Lord will strike your people with a serious affliction—your children, your wives, and all your possessions;

15 and you will become very sick with a ^adisease of your intestines, until your intestines come out by reason of the sickness, day by day.
