2 Chronicles 21:5-7
New International Reader's Version
5 Jehoram was 32 years old when he became king. He ruled in Jerusalem for eight years. 6 He followed the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the royal family of Ahab had done. In fact, he married a daughter of Ahab. Jehoram did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord. 7 But the Lord didn’t want to destroy the royal family of David.

The Lord had promised that for David and his children after him forever.
