2 Chronicles 17:1-9 ▼

1 And Jehoshaphat his son will reign in his stead, and he will strengthen himself against Israel.

2 And he will give an army in all the fortified cities of Judah, and he will give garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim which Asa his father took.

3 And Jehovah will be with Jehoshaphat, for he went in the first ways of David his father, and he sought not for the Baals.

4 For to the God of his father he sought, and in his commands he went, and not according to the works of Israel.

5 And Jehovah will prepare the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah will give a gift to Jehoshaphat, and riches will be to him and honor for multitude.

6 And his heart will be high in the ways of Jehovah: and yet more, he removed the heights and statues from Judah.

7 And in the third year to his kingdom he sent to his chiefs to the son of power, and to the servant of Jehovah, and to him Remembered of Jehovah, and to the Gift of God, and to Who as God, to teach in the cities of Judah.

8 And with them the Levites, him Heard of Jehovah, and The gift of Jehovah, and him Jehovah gave, and him God made, and The Watchful of Death, and him Jehovah gave, and the Lord Jehovah, and The Good of Jehovah, and The Good Lord Jehovah, Levites; and with them God will hear, and Jehovah exalted the priests.

9 And they will teach in Judah, and with them the book of the law of Jehovah, and they will turn about in all the cities of Judah, and they will teach among the people.
