2 Kings 8:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 ¶ In those days Edom [a]rebelled from under the hand of Judah, and made a King over themselves.
21 Therefore Joram went to Zair, and all his chariots with him, and he arose by night, and smote the Edomites which were about him, with the captains of the chariots, and the people fled into their tents.
22 So Edom rebelled from under the hand of Judah unto this day: then [b]Libnah rebelled at that same time.

20 In the time of Jehoram, Edom rebelled against Judah and set up its own king.(A) 21 So Jehoram[a] went to Zair with all his chariots. The Edomites surrounded him and his chariot commanders, but he rose up and broke through by night; his army, however, fled back home. 22 To this day Edom has been in rebellion(B) against Judah.
