New American Standard Bible
Chapter 21
12
Then a letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, 'This is what the
Lord
, the God of your father David says: ‘Because you have not walked in the ways of your father Jehoshaphat and the ways of Asa king of Judah,
13
but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have caused Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to be unfaithful as the house of Ahab was unfaithful, and you have also killed your brothers, your own family, who were better than you,
14
behold, the
Lord
is going to strike your people, your sons, your wives, and all your possessions with a great plague;
15
and you will suffer severe sickness, a disease of your bowels, until your bowels come out because of the sickness, day by day.’?'
16
Then the
Lord
stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and the Arabs who bordered the Ethiopians;
King James Version
Chapter 21
12
And there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus saith the
Lord
God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
13
But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a whoring, like to the whoredoms of the house of Ahab, and also hast slain thy brethren of thy father's house, which were better than thyself:
14
Behold, with a great plague will the
Lord
smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wives, and all thy goods:
15
And thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day.
16
Moreover the
Lord
stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, that were near the Ethiopians:
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 21
12
Then a letter came to Jehoram from the prophet Elijah, saying: This is what the
Lord
, the God of your ancestor David says: "Because you have not walked in the ways of your father Jehoshaphat or in the ways of King Asa of Judah
13
but have walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, have caused Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves like the house of Ahab prostituted itself, and also have killed your brothers, your father’s family, who were better than you,
14
the
Lord
is now about to strike your people, your sons, your wives, and all your possessions with a horrible affliction.
15
You yourself will be struck with many illnesses, including a disease of the intestines, until your intestines come out day after day because of the disease."
16
The
Lord
roused the spirit of the Philistines and the Arabs who lived near the Cushites to attack Jehoram.
New Living Translation
Chapter 21
12
Then Elijah the prophet wrote Jehoram this letter:
'This is what the
Lord
, the God of your ancestor David, says: You have not followed the good example of your father, Jehoshaphat, or your grandfather King Asa of Judah.
13
Instead, you have been as evil as the kings of Israel. You have led the people of Jerusalem and Judah to worship idols, just as King Ahab did in Israel. And you have even killed your own brothers, men who were better than you.
14
So now the
Lord
is about to strike you, your people, your children, your wives, and all that is yours with a heavy blow.
15
You yourself will suffer with a severe intestinal disease that will get worse each day until your bowels come out.'
16
Then the
Lord
stirred up the Philistines and the Arabs, who lived near the Ethiopians, to attack Jehoram.

12
And a letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, "Thus says the
Lord
, the God of David your father, ‘Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, or in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
13
but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel and have enticed Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem into whoredom, as the house of Ahab led Israel into whoredom, and also you have killed your brothers, of your father 's house, who were better than you,
14
behold, the
Lord
will bring a great plague on your people, your children, your wives, and all your possessions,
15
and you yourself will have a severe sickness with a disease of your bowels, until your bowels come out because of the disease, day by day.’"
16
And the
Lord
stirred up against Jehoram the anger of the Philistines and of the Arabians who are near the Ethiopians.
New International Version
Chapter 21
12
Jehoram received a letter from Elijah the prophet, which said: "This is what the
Lord
, the God of your father David, says: ‘You have not followed the ways of your father Jehoshaphat or of Asa king of Judah.
13
But you have followed the ways of the kings of Israel, and you have led Judah and the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves, just as the house of Ahab did. You have also murdered your own brothers, members of your own family, men who were better than you.
14
So now the
Lord
is about to strike your people, your sons, your wives and everything that is yours, with a heavy blow.
15
You yourself will be very ill with a lingering disease of the bowels, until the disease causes your bowels to come out.’ "
16
The
Lord
aroused against Jehoram the hostility of the Philistines and of the Arabs who lived near the Cushites.
New King James Version
Chapter 21
12
And a letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying,
Thus says the
Lord
God of your father David:
Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, or in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
13
but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the harlot like the harlotry of the house of Ahab, and also have killed your brothers, those of your father’s household,
who were
better than yourself,
14
behold, the
Lord
will strike your people with a serious affliction—your children, your wives, and all your possessions;
15
and you
will become
very sick with a disease of your intestines, until your intestines come out by reason of the sickness, day by day.
16
Moreover the
Lord
stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and the Arabians who
were
near the Ethiopians.
