This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
41 Asa’s son Yehoshafat started his reign over Yehudah when King Ahav had ruled Yisrael for four years. 42 Yehoshafat was thirty-five when he became king and he reigned from Yerushalem for twenty-five years. (His mother was Shilhi’s daughter Azuvah.) 43 He followed his father Asa in every way in doing what Yahweh wanted—he didn’t veer away from it, except that they didn’t demolish the hilltop temples so the people were still sacrificing and burning incense at those places. 44 Yehoshafat did make a peace treaty with Yisrael’s king.
45 Everything else about Yehoshafat, including his great achievements and his battle record, is written in the book of the events of the kings of Yehudah, 46 and including how he banished the male prostitutes from the land who had remained from the time of his father Asa.
47 At that time, there was no king in Edom—a governor appointed by Yehoshafat ruled there.
48 Yehoshafat had trading ships made to go to Ophir for gold, but they didn’t go because the ships got wrecked at Etsyon-Gaver. 49 Ahav’s son Ahazyah had said to Yehoshafat, “Let my servants go with your servants in the ships.” But Yehoshafat hadn’t accepted the offer.
50 Then Yehoshafat died and was buried with his ancestors in the City of his ancestor David, and his son Yehoram replaced him as king.
31 Yehoshafat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned over Yehudah from Yerushalem for twenty-five years. His mother was Shilhi’s daughter, Azuvah. 32 He had similar priorities to his father Asa, doing what pleased Yahweh, and he didn’t deviate from that. 33 However, he never removed the hilltop shrines, and the people were not really serious about obeying the god of their ancestors.
34 Everything else that Yehoshafat did from the beginning to the end of his reign was written down by Hanani’s son Yehu in the scroll about Yisrael’s kings.
35 Later on, Yehudah’s King Yehoshafat made an alliance with Yisrael’s King Ahazyah (which was a wicked thing to do), 36 and they worked together to make ships at Etsyon-Gever to sail to Tarshish. 37 Then Dodavahu’s son Eliezer from Mareshah prophesied against Yehoshafat, saying, “When you allied yourself with Ahazyah, Yahweh broke through your works.” In due course, the ships were damaged and unable to sail to Tarshish.
21 Then Yehoshafat died and was buried with his ancestors in ‘The City of David’, and his son Yehoram (Jehoram) replaced him as king.
