Moab Fights with Israel In the eighteenth year of King Jehoshaphat’s reign over Judah, Ahab’s son Jehoram became king over Israel in Samaria; he ruled for twelve years.
He did evil in the sight of the LORD, but not to the same degree as his father and mother. He did remove the sacred pillar of Baal that his father had made.
Yet he persisted in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who encouraged Israel to sin; he did not turn from them.
Now King Mesha of Moab was a sheep breeder. He would send as tribute to the king of Israel 100,000 male lambs and the wool of 100,000 rams.
When Ahab died, the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
At that time King Jehoram left Samaria and assembled all Israel for war.
He sent this message to King Jehoshaphat of Judah:“The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you fight with me against Moab?” Jehoshaphat replied,“I will join you in the campaign; my army and horses are at your disposal.”
