4 Lorsque Joram eut pris possession du royaume de son père et qu’il se fut fortifié, il fit mourir par l’épée tous ses frères et quelques-uns aussi des chefs d’Israël.

5 Joram avait trente-deux ans lorsqu’il devint roi, et il régna huit ans à Jérusalem.

7 Mais l’Éternel ne voulut point détruire la maison de David, à cause de l’alliance qu’il avait traitée avec David et de la promesse qu’il avait faite de lui donner toujours une lampe, à lui et à ses fils.
