Book 14 2 Chronicles Chapter 017

 

017:001And Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead, and strengthened
himself against Israel.

 

017:002And he placed forces in all the fenced cities of Judah, and
set garrisons in the land of Judah, and in the cities of
Ephraim, which Asa his father had taken.

 

017:003And the LORD was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the
first ways of his father David, and sought not unto Baalim;

 

017:004But sought to the Lord God of his father, and walked in his
commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.

 

017:005Therefore the LORD stablished the kingdom in his hand; and all
Judah brought to Jehoshaphat presents; and he had riches and
honour in abundance.

 

017:006And his heart was lifted up in the ways of the LORD: moreover
he took away the high places and groves out of Judah.

 

017:007Also in the third year of his reign he sent to his princes,
even to Benhail, and to Obadiah, and to Zechariah, and to
Nethaneel, and to Michaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah.

 

017:008And with them he sent Levites, even Shemaiah, and Nethaniah,
and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehonathan, and
Adonijah, and Tobijah, and Tobadonijah, Levites; and with them
Elishama and Jehoram, priests.

 

017:009And they taught in Judah, and had the book of the law of the
LORD with them, and went about throughout all the cities of
Judah, and taught the people.

 

017:010And the fear of the LORD fell upon all the kingdoms of the
lands that were round about Judah, so that they made no war
against Jehoshaphat.

 

017:011Also some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents, and
tribute silver; and the Arabians brought him flocks, seven
thousand and seven hundred rams, and seven thousand and seven
hundred he goats.

 

017:012And Jehoshaphat waxed great exceedingly; and he built in Judah
castles, and cities of store.

 

017:013And he had much business in the cities of Judah: and the men
of war, mighty men of valour, were in Jerusalem.

 

017:014And these are the numbers of them according to the house of
their fathers: Of Judah, the captains of thousands; Adnah the
chief, and with him mighty men of valour three hundred
thousand.

 

017:015And next to him was Jehohanan the captain, and with him two
hundred and fourscore thousand.

 

017:016And next him was Amasiah the son of Zichri, who willingly
offered himself unto the LORD; and with him two hundred
thousand mighty men of valour.

 

017:017And of Benjamin; Eliada a mighty man of valour, and with him
armed men with bow and shield two hundred thousand.

 

017:018And next him was Jehozabad, and with him an hundred and
fourscore thousand ready prepared for the war.

 

017:019These waited on the king, beside those whom the king put in
the fenced cities throughout all Judah.
