Melachim Bais 8:19-25 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

19. Yet Hashem would not destroy Yehudah for the sake of Dovid His eved, in accordance with His promise to him to give a Ner (Lamp) for him and his banim kol hayamim.

20. In his yamim Edom pasha (rebelled) from under the yad Yehudah, and set a melech over themselves.

21. So Yoram went over to Tzair, and all the merkavot with him; and he rose by lailah, and attacked Edom who had him surrounded, and the commanders of the merkavot; and the army fled to their ohalim (tents, homes).

22. Yet Edom revolted from under the yad Yehudah unto this day. Then Livnah revolted at the same time.

23. And the rest of the acts of Yoram, and all that he did, are they not written in the Sefer Divrei HaYamim L'Malkhei Yehudah?

24. And Yoram slept with his avot, and was buried with his avot in Ir Dovid; and Achazyahu bno reigned as Melech in his place.

25. In the twelfth year of Yoram Ben Ach'av Melech Yisroel did Achazyahu Ben Yehoram Melech Yehudah begin to reign as Melech.
