2 Kings 8:17-22

New American Standard Bible

¹⁷ He was ^(A)thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned for eight years in Jerusalem. ¹⁸ He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done, for ^(B)Ahab’s daughter was his wife; and he did evil in the sight of the Lord. ¹⁹ However, the Lord did not want to destroy Judah, for the sake of David His servant, ^(C)since He had ^[a]promised him to give him a ^[b]lamp through his sons always.

²⁰ In his days ^(D)Edom broke away from the ^[c]rule of Judah, and appointed a king over themselves. ²¹ Then Joram crossed over to Zair, and all his chariots with him. And he got up at night and struck the Edomites who had surrounded him and the captains of the chariots; ^(E)but ^[d]his army fled to their tents. ^22 (F)So Edom has broken away from ^[e]Judah to this day. Then ^(G)Libnah broke away at the same time.
