25
When Jehoshaphat and his people came to take away their spoil, they found among them an abundance of valuables on the dead bodies, and precious jewelry, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away; and they were three days gathering the spoil because there was so much.
26
And on the fourth day they assembled in the Valley of Berachah, for there they blessed the Lord; therefore the name of that place was called The Valley of Berachah until this day.
27
Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, with Jehoshaphat in front of them, to go back to Jerusalem with joy, for the Lord had made them rejoice over their enemies.
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.
