2 Chronicles

2 Chronicles 22:3–5

³Ahaziah also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, for his mother was his counselor in wickedness. ⁴And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as the house of Ahab had done, for to his destruction they were his counselors after the death of his father.

⁵Ahaziah also followed their counsel and went with Joram son of Ahab king of Israel to fight against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth-gilead. But the Arameans^c wounded Joram.^d
