(1 Kings 15:23–24)
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 Lord was with Iehoshaphat, because he walked in the first wayes of his father Dauid, and sought not Baalim,
4
But sought the Lord God of his father, and walked in his commandements, and not after the trade of Israel.
5
Therefore the Lord 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 Lord, and he tooke away moreouer the hie places and the groues out of Iudah.
7
And in the thirde yere of his reigne he sent his princes, Ben-hail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethaneel, and Michaiah, that they should teach in the cities of Iudah,
8
And with them Leuites, Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehonathan, and Adoniiah, and Tobiiah, and Tob-adoniiah, Leuites, and with the Elishama and Iehoram Priestes.
9
And they taught in Iudah, and had the booke of the Lawe of the Lord with them, and went about throughout all the cities of Iudah, and taught the people.
10
And the feare of the Lord fell vpon all the kingdomes of ye lands that were round about Iudah, and they fought not against Iehoshaphat.
11
Also some of the Philistims brought Iehoshaphat giftes and tribute siluer, and the Arabians brought him flockes, seuen thousande and seuen hundreth rammes, and seuen thousande and seuen hundreth hee goates.
12
So Iehoshaphat prospered and grewe vp on hie: and he built in Iudah palaces and cities of store.
13
And he had great workes in the cities of Iudah, and men of warre, and valiant men in Ierusalem.
14
And these are the nombers of them after the house of their fathers, In Iudah were captaines of thousands, Adnah the captaine, and with him of valiant men three hundreth thousande.
15
And at his hande Iehohanan a captaine, and with him two hundreth and fourescore thousande.
16
And at his hande Amasiah the sonne of Zichri, which willingly offered him selfe vnto the Lord, and with him two hundreth thousand valiant men.
17
And of Beniamin, Eliada a valiant man, and with him armed men with bowe and shielde two hundreth thousand.
18
And at his hand Iehozabad, and with him an hundreth and fourescore thousand armed to the warre.
19
These waited on the King, besides those which the King put in the strong cities thoroughout all Iudah.
(1 Kings 15:23–24)
1
Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his place, and strengthened himself against Israel.
2
He placed forces in all the fortified cities of Judah, and set garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim, which Asa his father had taken.
3
The LORD was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the first ways of his father David, and didn’t seek the Baals,
4
but sought the God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not in the ways of Israel.
5
Therefore the LORD established the kingdom in his hand. All Judah brought tribute to Jehoshaphat, and he had riches and honor in abundance.
6
His heart was lifted up in the ways of the LORD. Furthermore, he took away the high places and the Asherah poles out of Judah.
7
Also in the third year of his reign he sent his princes, even Ben Hail, Obadiah, Zechariah, Nethanel, and Micaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah;
8
and with them Levites, even Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tobadonijah, the Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram, the priests.
9
They taught in Judah, having the book of the LORD’s law with them. They went about throughout all the cities of Judah and taught among the people.
10
The fear of the LORD fell on all the kingdoms of the lands that were around Judah, so that they made no war against Jehoshaphat.
11
Some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents and silver for tribute. The Arabians also brought him flocks: seven thousand seven hundred rams and seven thousand seven hundred male goats.
12
Jehoshaphat grew great exceedingly; and he built fortresses and store cities in Judah.
13
He had many works in the cities of Judah; and men of war, mighty men of valor, in Jerusalem.
14
This was the numbering of them according to their fathers’ houses: From Judah, the captains of thousands: Adnah the captain, and with him three hundred thousand mighty men of valor;
15
and next to him Jehohanan the captain, and with him two hundred eighty thousand;
16
and next to him Amasiah the son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself to the LORD, and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valor.
17
From Benjamin: Eliada, a mighty man of valor, and with him two hundred thousand armed with bow and shield;
18
and next to him Jehozabad, and with him one hundred eighty thousand ready and prepared for war.
19
These were those who waited on the king, in addition to those whom the king put in the fortified cities throughout all Judah.
