2 Chronicles 17:1-6 ▼

1 And Iehosphat his sonne reigned in his steade, and preuailed against Israel.

2 And he put garisons in all the strong cities of Iudah, and set bandes in the lande of Iudah and in the cities of Ephraim, which Asa his father had taken.

3 And the Lorde was with Iehoshaphat, because he walked in the first wayes of his father Dauid, and sought not Baalim,

4 But sought the Lorde God of his father, and walked in his commandements, and not after the trade of Israel.

5 Therefore the Lorde stablished the kingdome in his hande, and all Iudah brought presents to Iehoshaphat, so that he had of riches and honour in abundance.

6 And he lift vp his heart vnto the wayes of the Lorde, and he tooke away moreouer the hie places and the groues out of Iudah.
