2 Chronicles 22:4-6
Evangelical Heritage Version
4 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as the house of Ahab did, because they were his advisors after the death of his father. This led to his destruction.
5 He also followed their advice and went with Jehoram,[a] the son of Ahab, the king of Israel, to wage war against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth Gilead. The Arameans wounded Joram there. 6 So he returned to Jezre’el to recover from the wounds he had received at Ramah when he was fighting against Hazael king of Aram. Ahaziah[b] son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to visit Jehoram son of Ahab in Jezre’el because Jehoram had been wounded.

- 2 Chronicles 22:5 Jehoram and Joram are two forms of the same name, a name shared by contemporary kings of Judah and Israel. In this account the two names are used inconsistently and seemingly interchangeably for the same king.
- 2 Chronicles 22:6 Ahaziah is the reading of some Hebrew manuscripts and ancient versions and 2 Kings 8:29. Most Hebrew manuscripts read Azariah.
