  • 2 Chr 21:20-22:6 : 20 Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned for eight years in Jerusalem. He passed away to no one's regret and was buried in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings. 1 The inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, his youngest son, king in his place, because the raiders who had come with the Arabs into the camp had killed all the older sons. So Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, king of Judah, became king. 2 Ahaziah was forty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for one year. His mother’s name was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri. 3 He also walked in the ways of Ahab’s family, for his mother encouraged him to do evil. 4 He did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, like the house of Ahab, for they were his advisers after his father's death, leading to his ruin. 5 Following their counsel, he went with Jehoram son of Ahab, king of Israel, to fight against Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-Gilead, where the Arameans wounded Jehoram. 6 Jehoram returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he received at Ramoth while fighting against Hazael, king of Aram. Then Azariah (also called Ahaziah), son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to visit Jehoram, son of Ahab, in Jezreel because he was wounded.
