2 Kings 3:1-3

Lexham English Bible

Joram Meets Moab in Battle

3 Now Joram the son of Ahab had become king over Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah. He reigned twelve years ² and did evil in the eyes of Yahweh, yet not as his father or his mother, as he removed the stone pillars of Baal that his father had made. ³ But he did cling to the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat who caused Israel to sin, and he did not depart from it.
