12	A letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, “Yahweh, the God of David your father, says, ‘Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,	And a letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, “Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father, ‘Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, or in the ways of Asa king of Judah,	Jehoram received a letter from Elijah the prophet, which said: “This is what the LORD, the God of your father David, says: ‘You have not followed the ways of your father Jehoshaphat or of Asa king of Judah.
13	but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the prostitute like Ahab’s house did, and also have slain your brothers of your father’s house, who were better than yourself,	but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel and have enticed Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem into whoredom, as the house of Ahab led Israel into whoredom, and also you have killed your brothers, of your father’s house, who were better than you,	But you have followed the ways of the kings of Israel, and you have led Judah and the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves, just as the house of Ahab did. You have also murdered your own brothers, members of your own family, men who were better than you.
14	behold, Yahweh will strike your people with a great plague, including your children, your wives, and all your possessions;	behold, the LORD will bring a great plague on your people, your children, your wives, and all your possessions,	So now the LORD is about to strike your people, your sons, your wives and everything that is yours, with a heavy blow.
15	and you will have great sickness with a disease of your bowels, until your bowels fall out by reason of the sickness, day by day.’”	and you yourself will have a severe sickness with a disease of your bowels, until your bowels come out because of the disease, day by day.’”	You yourself will be very ill with a lingering disease of the bowels, until the disease causes your bowels to come out.’”
