50 Jehoshaphat died and was buried in the royal tombs in David's City, and his son Jehoram succeeded him as king.
51 In the seventeenth year of the reign of King Jehoshaphat of Judah, Ahaziah son of Ahab became king of Israel, and he ruled in Samaria for two years.
52 He sinned against the Lord, following the wicked example of his father Ahab, his mother Jezebel, and King Jeroboam, who had led Israel into sin.
53 He worshiped and served Baal, and like his father before him, he aroused the anger of the Lord, the God of Israel.
