the city of David: and Joram his son reigned in his stead.

Zacharias, and Azaria, and Michael, and Saphatias, all these were the
sons of Josaphat king of Juda.
21:3. And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold, and
pensions, with strong cities in Juda: but the kingdom he gave to Joram,
because he was the eldest.

established himself, he slew all his brethren with the sword, and some
of the princes of Israel.

this day: at that time Lobna also revolted, from being under his hand.
