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.

Jehoram received a letter from Elijah the prophet. In it, Elijah said,“ The Lord is the God of your father David. The Lord says,‘ You have not followed the ways of your own father Jehoshaphat or of Asa, the king of Judah.

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,

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.

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

耶和華與約沙法同在；因為他行他祖大衛初行的道，不尋求巴力，只尋求他父親的神，遵行他的誡命，不效法以色列人的行為。

亞撒行耶和華－他神眼中看為善為正的事，除掉外邦神的壇和邱壇，打碎柱像，砍下木偶，吩咐猶大人尋求耶和華－他們列祖的神，遵行他的律法、誡命；又在猶大各城邑除掉邱壇和日像，那時國享太平；

耶和華要用旋風接以利亞升天的時候，以利亞與以利沙從吉甲前往。

亞撒效法他祖大衛行耶和華眼中看為正的事，

他們正走着說話，忽有火車火馬將二人隔開，以利亞就乘旋風升天去了。

「所寫的文字是：『彌尼，彌尼，提客勒，烏法珥新。』講解是這樣：彌尼，就是神已經數算你國的年日到此完畢。提客勒，就是你被稱在天平裏，顯出你的虧欠。毗勒斯，就是你的國分裂，歸與米底亞人和波斯人。」伯沙撒下令，人就把紫袍給但以理穿上，把金鍊給他戴在頸項上，又傳令使他在國中位列第三。

猶底念了三四篇，王就用文士的刀將書卷割破，扔在火盆中，直到全卷在火中燒盡了。

約沙法行他父親亞撒所行的道，不偏離左右，行耶和華眼中看為正的事；只是邱壇還沒有廢去，百姓仍在那裏獻祭燒香。

當時，忽有人的指頭顯出，在王宮與燈臺相對的粉牆上寫字。王看見寫字的指頭

「你取一書卷，將我對你說攻擊以色列和猶大，並各國的一切話，從我對你說話的那日，就是從約西亞的日子起直到今日，都寫在其上。

「你再取一卷，將猶大王約雅敬所燒第一卷上的一切話寫在其上。論到猶大王約雅敬你要說，耶和華如此說：你燒了書卷，說：『你為甚麼在其上寫着，說巴比倫王必要來毀滅這地，使這地上絕了人民牲畜呢？』所以耶和華論到猶大王約雅敬說：他後裔中必沒有人坐在大衛的寶座上；他的屍首必被拋棄，白日受炎熱，黑夜受寒霜。我必因他和他後裔，並他臣僕的罪孽刑罰他們。我要使我所說的一切災禍臨到他們和耶路撒冷的居民，並猶大人；只是他們不聽。」於是，耶利米又取一書卷交給尼利亞的兒子文士巴錄，他就從耶利米的口中寫了猶大王約雅敬所燒前卷上的一切話，另外又添了許多相彷的話。

我觀看，見有一隻手向我伸出來，手中有一書卷。他將書卷在我面前展開，內外都寫着字，其上所寫的有哀號、歎息、悲痛的話。
