17 And Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his place, and he strengthened himself against Israel. 2 And he placed a force in all the unassailable cities of Judah, and he placed garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim, which Asa his father had captured. 3 And Yahweh was with Jehoshaphat because he walked in the first ways of David his father, and he did not seek the Baals.[fn] 4 Instead, the God of his father he sought, and in his commandments he walked and not according to the work of Israel. 5 And Yahweh established the kingdom in his hand, and all Judah gave tribute to Jehoshaphat. And there was to him wealth and glory in abundance. 6 And his heart was high in the ways of Yahweh. And also, he took away the high places and the Asherim from Judah.
7 And in the third year of his reign he sent his chiefs, Ben-Hail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethanel, and Micaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah. 8 And with them the Levites: Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehonathan, and Adonijah, and Tobijah, and Tob-Adonijah, the Levites; and with them, Elishama and Jehoram, the priests. 9 And they taught in Judah, and with them, the scroll of the law of Yahweh. And they went around in all the cities of Judah, and they taught among the people.
10 And the dread of Yahweh was on all the kingdoms of the lands that were around Judah, and they did not fight with Jehoshaphat. 11 And some of the Philistines were bringing to Jehoshaphat tribute, and a silver load. Also, the Arabians were bringing to him flocks, 7,700 rams and 7,700 goats. 12 And it happened Jehoshaphat was walking and becoming increasingly great. And he built in Judah palaces and cities of stores. 13 And much work was to him in the cities of Judah, and men of battle, mighty ones of strength in Jerusalem. 14 And these were their mustering according to the house of their fathers: for Judah, chiefs of thousands, Adnah the chief, and with him mighty ones of strength, 300,000; 15 and on his hand, Jehohanan the chief and with him 280,000; 16 and on his hand Amasiah the son of Zichri, who freely offered himself to Yahweh, and with him 200,000 mighty ones of strength. 17 And from Benjamin: a mighty one of strength, Eliada, and with him, ones armed with bow and shield, 200,000; 18 and on his hand, Jehozabad and with him 180,000 equipped for war. 19 These ministered to the king, besides those whom the king placed in the cities of fortification in all Judah.
Some ancient copies do not have David, and some modern versions leave it out.
