The reign of Ahaziah of Judah
2 Kings 8:25-29
25In year twelve of Joram son of Ahab, king of Israel, Ahaziah son of Joram, king of Judah, began to reign. 26Ahaziah was twenty two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem; and the name of his mother was Athaliah, daughter of Omri, king of Israel. 27He walked in the way of the house of Ahab and did what was evil in the eyes of YHWH, as the house of Ahab did, for he was a son-in-law of the house of Ahab. 28He went with Joram son of Ahab to war against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth Gilead, and the Arameans wounded Joram. 29King Joram returned to be healed in Jezreel from the wounds that the Arameans had inflicted on him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Aram. And Ahaziah son of Joram, king of Judah, went down to see Joram son of Ahab in Jezreel, for he was sick.
1The inhabitants of Jerusalem made king in his place Ahaziah, his youngest son, for the band that came with the Arabs to the camp had killed all the older ones. So Ahaziah son of Joram, king of Judah, reigned. 2Ahaziah was forty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Athaliah daughter of Omri. 3He too walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, for his mother was his counselor in acting wickedly. 4He did what was evil in the eyes of YHWH, like the house of Ahab, for they were his counselors after the death of his father, to his destruction. 5He also walked in their counsel, and went with Joram son of Ahab, king of Israel, to war against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth-gilead; and the Arameans wounded Joram. 6He returned to be healed in Jezreel from the wounds that they had inflicted on him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Aram. And Azariah son of Joram, king of Judah, went down to see Joram son of Ahab in Jezreel, for he was sick.
