2 Chronicles 21:7-9

New Catholic Bible

⁷ However, the Lord was not willing to destroy the house of David because of the covenant that he had made with David and because of his promise to give him and his descendants a lamp forever.

⁸ During the reign of Jehoram, Edom revolted against the rule of Judah and appointed its own king. ⁹ Therefore, Jehoram crossed over into Edom with his commanders and all his chariots. He set out during the night and attacked the Edomites who had surrounded him and his chariot commanders.
