Jehoram Reigns over Judah

¹⁶ Now in the fifth year of ^(A)Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat being then the king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah became king. ¹⁷ He was ^(B)thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. ¹⁸ And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done, for ^(C)the daughter of Ahab became his wife; and he did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh.
