28
So they came to Jerusalem, with stringed instruments and harps and trumpets, to the house of the Lord.
29
And the fear of God was on all the kingdoms of those countries when they heard that the Lord had fought against the enemies of Israel.
30
Then the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet, for his God gave him rest all around.
31
So Jehoshaphat was king over Judah. He was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
32
And he walked in the way of his father Asa, and did not turn aside from it, doing what was right in the sight of the Lord.
33
Nevertheless the high places were not taken away, for as yet the people had not directed their hearts to the God of their fathers.
34
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, indeed they are written in the book of Jehu the son of Hanani, which is mentioned in the book of the kings of Israel.
35
After this Jehoshaphat king of Judah allied himself with Ahaziah king of Israel, who acted very wickedly.
36
And he allied himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish, and they made the ships in Ezion Geber.
37
But Eliezer the son of Dodavah of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, "Because you have allied yourself with Ahaziah, the Lord has destroyed your works." Then the ships were wrecked, so that they were not able to go to Tarshish.
