GreekΚαὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ἰωσαφὰτ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν πόλει Δαυίδ. Καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωρὰν υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντʼ αὐτοῦ.

ThomsonNow he had six brothers sons of Josaphat, namely, Azarias and Jeiel, and Zacharias and Azarias, and Michael and Zaphatias. All these were sons of Josaphat king of Juda.

ThomsonAnd their father gave them many gifts, silver and gold, and arms and walled cities in Judea, and gave the kingdom to Joram, because he was his first born.
BrentonAnd their father gave them many gifts, silver, and gold, and arms, together with fortified cities in Juda: but he gave the kingdom to Joram, for he was the first-born.
GreekΚαὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ὁ πατὴρ αὐτῶν δόματα πολλὰ, ἀργύριον καὶ χρυσίον, καὶ ὅπλα μετὰ τῶν πόλεων τετειχισμένων ἐν Ἰούδα, καὶ τὴν βασιλείαν ἔδωκε τῷ Ἰωρὰμ, ὅτι οὗτος ὁ πρωτότοκος.

ThomsonJoram was thirty-two years old when he came to the throne, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
BrentonWhen he was thirty and two years old, Joram succeeded to his kingdom, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

6
ThomsonAnd he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and as the house of Achab did; for his wife was a daughter of Achab. But though he did evil in the sight of the Lord,
BrentonAnd he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Achaab; for a daughter of Achaab was his wife: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord:
GreekΚαὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδῷ βασιλέων Ἰσραὴλ, ὡς ἐποίησεν οἶκος Ἀχαὰβ, ὅτι θυγάτηρ Ἀχαὰβ ἦν αὐτοῦ γυνὴ, καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐναντίον Κυρίου.
7
Thomsonthe Lord would not utterly destroy the house of David, because of the covenant which he had made with David, and because he had promised him to give him and his sons a lamp continually.
Brentonnevertheless the Lord would not utterly destroy the house of David, because of the covenant which he made with David, and as he said to him that he would give a light to him and his sons for ever.
GreekΚαὶ οὐκ ἐβούλετο Κύριος ἐξολοθρεῦσαι τὸν οἶκον Δαυὶδ, διὰ τὴν διαθήκην ἣν διέθετο τῷ Δαυὶδ, καὶ ὡς εἶπεν αὐτῷ δοῦναι αὐτῷ λύχνον καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας.

ThomsonIn those days Edom revolted from Juda, and set up a king over themselves.
BrentonIn those days Edom revolted from Juda, and they made a king over themselves.
GreekἘν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ἀπέστη Ἐδὼμ ἀπὸ τοῦ Ἰούδα, καὶ ἐβασίλευσαν ἐφʼ ἑαυτοὺς βασιλέα.
9
ThomsonAnd though Jordan went with the chiefs and all the cavalry with him; and though it happened that he arose by night and smote Edom who had surrounded him, and the commanders of the chariots, and the people fled to their tents,
BrentonAnd Joram went with the princes, and all the cavalry with him: and it came to pass that he arose by night, and smote Edom that compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots, and the people fled to their tents.
GreekΚαὶ ᾤχετο Ἰωρὰμ μετὰ τῶν ἀρχόντων, καὶ πᾶσα ἡ ἵππος μετʼ αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐγένετο καὶ ἠγέρθη νυκτὸς, καὶ ἐπάταξεν Ἐδὼμ τὸν κυκλοῦντα αὐτὸν, καὶ τοὺς ἄρχοντας τῶν ἁρμάτων, καὶ ἔφυγεν ὁ λαὸς εἰς τὰ σκηνώματα αὐτῶν.
10
Thomsonyet Edom revolted from Juda, and have continued the revolt to this day. At this time also, Lomna revolted from his authority, because he had forsaken the Lord the God of his fathers.
BrentonAnd Edom revolted from Juda until this day. Then Lomna at that time revolted from under his hand, because he forsook the Lord God of his fathers.
GreekΚαὶ ἀπέστη ἀπὸ Ἰούδα Ἐδὼμ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης· τότε ἀπέστη Λομνὰ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἀπὸ χειρὸς αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἐγκατέλιπε Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ.
11
ThomsonFor he erected high places in the cities of Juda, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a-whoring, and led Juda astray.
BrentonFor he built high places in the cities of Juda, and caused the dwellers in Jerusalem to go a-whoring, and led Juda astray.
GreekΚαὶ γὰρ αὐτὸς ἐποίησεν ὑψηλὰ ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν Ἰούδα, καὶ ἐξεπόρνευσε τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ἀπεπλάνησε τὸν Ἰούδαν.
12
ThomsonAnd there came to him in writing, a message from Elias the prophet, saying, Thus saith the Lord God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the way of thy father Josaphat, nor in the ways of Asa, king of Juda;
BrentonAnd there came to him a message in writing from Eliu the prophet, saying, Thus saith the Lord God of thy father David, Because thou hast not walked in the way of thy father Josaphat, nor in the ways of Asa king of Juda,
GreekΚαὶ ἦλθεν αὐτῷ ἐν γραφῇ παρὰ Ἠλιοὺ τοῦ προφήτου, λέγων, τάδε λέγει Κύριος Θεὸς Δαυὶδ τοῦ πατρός σου, ἀνθʼ ὧν οὐκ ἐπορεύθης ἐν ὁδῷ Ἰωσαφὰτ τοῦ πατρός σου, καὶ ἐν ὁδοῖς Ἀσὰ βασιλέως Ἰούδα,
13
Thomsonbut hast walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and caused Juda and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a-whoring, as the house of Achab hath done, and hast slain thy brothers the sons of thy father, better men than thyself,
Brentonbut hast walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and hast caused Juda and the dwellers in Jerusalem to go a-whoring, as the house of Achaab caused Israel to go a-whoring, and thou hast slain thy brethren, the sons of thy father, who were better than thyself;
Greekκαὶ ἐπορεύθης ἐν ὁδοῖς βασιλέων Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἐξεπόρνευσας τὸν Ἰούδαν καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, ὡς ἐξεπόρνευσεν οἶκος Ἀχαὰβ, καὶ τοὺς ἀδελφούς σου υἱοὺς τοῦ πατρός σου τοὺς ἀγαθοὺς ὑπὲρ σὲ ἀπέκτεινας,
14
Thomsonbehold the Lord will smite thee with a great stroke in thy people, and in thy sons and in thy wives, and in all thy family;
Brentonbehold, the Lord shall smite thee with a great plague among thy people, and thy sons, and thy wives, and all thy store:
Greekἰδοὺ Κύριος πατάξει σε πληγὴν μεγάλην ἐν τῷ λαῷ σου, καὶ ἐν τοῖς υἱοῖς σου, καὶ ἐν γυναιξί σου, καὶ ἐν πάσῃ τῇ ἀποσκευῇ σου.
15
Thomsonand thou thyself shalt be afflicted with a grievous sickness and disorder in thy bowels, until thy bowels shall come out with the disorder, from year to year.
Brentonand thou shalt be afflicted with a grievous disease, with a disease of the bowels, until thy bowels shall fall out day by day with the sickness.
GreekΚαὶ σὺ ἐν μαλακίᾳ πονηρᾷ, ἐν νόσῳ κοιλίας, ἕως οὗ ἐξέλθῃ ἡ κοιλία σου μετὰ τῆς μαλακίας ἐξ ἡμερῶν εἰς ἡμέρας.
16
ThomsonSo the Lord stirred up against Joram, the Philistines and the Arabians, and those who bordered on the Ethiopeans;
BrentonSo the Lord stirred up the Philistines against Joram, and the Arabians, and those who bordered on the Æthiopians:

17
Thomsonand they came up against Juda and subdued them, and carried away all the family which they found in the king’s house, with his sons and his daughters, so that he had not a son left except Ochozias the youngest of his sons.
Brentonand they went up against Juda, and prevailed against them, and took away all the store which they found in the house of the king, and his sons, and his daughters; and there was no son left to him but Ochozias the youngest of his sons.
GreekΚαὶ ἀνέβησαν ἐπὶ Ἰούδαν, καὶ κατεδυνάστευον, καὶ ἀπέστρεψαν πᾶσαν τὴν ἀποσκευὴν ἣν εὗρον ἐν οἴκῳ τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐ κατελείφθη αὐτῷ υἱὸς, ἀλλʼ ἢ Ὀχοζίας ὁ μικρότατος τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ.
18
ThomsonAnd after all this, the Lord smote him with an incurable disorder in his bowels,
BrentonAnd after all these things the Lord smote him in the bowels with an incurable disease.
GreekΚαὶ μετὰ ταῦτα πάντα ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν Κύριος εἰς τὴν κοιλίαν μαλακίαν ᾗ οὐκ ἔστιν ἰατρεία.
19
Thomsonwhich continued from year to year. And at the end of two years, his bowels came out with the disorder, and he died of a grievous sickness. And the people made no funeral procession for him, like the procession for his fathers.
BrentonAnd it continued from day to day: and when the time of the days came to two years, his bowels fell out with the disease, and he died by a grievous distemper: and his people performed no funeral, like the funeral of his fathers.
GreekΚαὶ ἐγένετο ἐξ ἡμερῶν εἰς ἡμέρας· καὶ ὡς ἦλθε καιρὸς τῶν ἡμερῶν ἡμέρας δύο, ἐξῆλθεν ἡ κοιλία αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῆς νόσου, καὶ ἀπέθανεν ἐν μαλακίᾳ πονηρᾷ· καὶ οὐκ ἐποίησεν ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ ἐκφορὰν, καθὼς ἐκφορὰν πατέρων αὐτοῦ.

BrentonHe was thirty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. And he departed without honour, and was buried in the city of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
GreekἮν τριάκοντα καὶ δύο ἐτῶν ὅτε ἐβασίλευσε, καὶ ὀκτὼ ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ· καὶ ἐπορεύθη οὐκ ἐν ἐπαίνῳ, καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν πόλει Δαυὶδ, καὶ οὐκ ἐν τάφοις τῶν βασιλέων.
