2 CHR 17 ©

17Jehoshaphat his son reigned instead of him, and established his power against Israel. 2He posted armed forces in every fortified town of Judah, setting military posts throughout the country of Judah and in the towns of Ephraim captured by his father Asa. 3The Eternal was with Jehoshaphat, because he took the line taken at first by his father; he resorted not to the Baals 4but to his father’s God, living by his commands, instead of doing as Israel did. 5Therefore did the Eternal establish the kingdom under his rule; all Judah brought presents to Jehoshaphat, and he had abundant wealth and honour. 6He made it his ambition to live on the lines of the Eternal, and proceeded to remove the shrines and sacred poles from Judah.

7In the third year of his reign he sent some of his leading men, Benhail, Obadiah, Zecharlah, Nethanel, and Micaiah, to give religious instruction throughout the towns of Judah, 8accompanied by some Levites, Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asa- hel, Shemiramoth, Jehonatban, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tobadonijah, also by Elishama and Jehoram, who were priests. 9Taking the law-book of the Eternal, they gave instructions throughout Judah; they went to every town in Judah, instructing the people.

10The Eternal also put such a dread upon all the realms round Judah that they made no war upon Jehoshaphat. 11Indeed, some of the Philistines brought tribute to Jehoshaphat, a vast quantity of silver, while the Arabians brought him flocks, seven thousand seven hundred rams and seven thousand seven hundred he-goats. 12Jehoshaphat became more and more powerful. He built castles and towns for storing provisions throughout Judah; 13he had large military stores in the towns of Judah, and soldiers, gallant fighters, in Jerusalem. 14This was their register, by families: Judah’s generals were Adnah, in command of three hundred thousand gallant fighters, 15next to him Jehohanan, in command of two hundred and eighty thousand, 16and next to him Amasiah the son of Zichri, who volunteered for the service of the Eternal, in command of two hundred thousand gallant fighters; 17Benjamin’s generals were Eliada; a gallant soldier, in command of two hundred thousand men armed with bow and targe, 18and next to him Jehozabad, in command of a hundred and eighty thousand men all ready for the fray. 19These were at the king’s disposal, besides the troops posted by the king in the fortified towns all over Judah.
