2 Kings 8:17-19

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁷ He was two and thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

¹⁸ And he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, as the house of Achab had walked: for the daughter of Achab was his wife: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.

¹⁹ But the Lord would not destroy Juda, for David his servant's sake, as he had promised him, to give him a light, and to his children always.
