1 And Jehoram son of Ahab reigned over Israel in Shomeron in the eighteenth year to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he will reign twelve years. 2 And he will do evil in the eyes of Jehovah, but not as his father and; as his mother; and he will remove the statue of Baal which his father made. 3 But in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin, he adhered; he departed not from them. 4 And Misha king of Moab was a shepherd, and he turned back to the king of Israel a hundred; thousand lambs and a hundred thousand rams, with the fleece. 5 And it wilt be as Ahab died; and the king of Moab will break with the king of Israel. 6 And king Jehoram will go forth in that day out of Shomeron, and he will review all Israel. 7 And he will go and send to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, saying, The king of Moab broke with me; go with me against Moab to war. And he will say, I will go: as me, as thee; as my people as thy people; as my horses as thy horses. 8 And he will say, Where the way we shall go up? And he will say, The way of the desert of Edom. 9 And the king of Israel will go and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom and they will encompass a way seven days; and there was no water for the camp, and for tire cattle which were at their feet. 10 And the king of Israel will say, Alas, that Jehovah called for thine three kings to give them into the hand of Moab! 2 Kings 3:1-10, Smith's Literal Translation.
