2 Kings 8:17-19
International Standard Version
17 He was 32 years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for eight years. 18 He lived his life like the kings of Israel did, following the example of Ahab’s household when he married Ahab’s daughter and practiced what was evil in the Lord’s presence.[a] 19 But the Lord remained unwilling to destroy Judah for the sake of his servant David, since he had promised to keep[b] David’s lamp burning brightly through his descendants every day.
