15 Le lendemain, Hazaël prit une couverture, qu’il plongea dans l’eau, et il l’étendit sur le visage du roi, qui mourut. Et Hazaël régna à sa place.

16 La cinquième année de Joram, fils d’Achab, roi d’Israël, Joram, fils de Josaphat, roi de Juda, régna.

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

18 Il marcha dans la voie des rois d’Israël, comme avait fait la maison d’Achab, car il avait pour femme une fille d’Achab, et il fit ce qui est mal aux yeux de l’Éternel.

19 Mais l’Éternel ne voulut point détruire Juda, à cause de David, son serviteur, selon la promesse qu’il lui avait faite de lui donner toujours une lampe parmi ses fils.
