Dual Panel1And Jehoshaphat <03092> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead, and strengthened <02388> (8691) himself against Israel <03478>_.
2And he placed <05414> (8799) forces <02428> in all the fenced <01219> (8803) cities <05892> of Judah <03063>_, and set <05414> (8799) garrisons <05333> in the land <0776> of Judah <03063>_, and in the cities <05892> of Ephraim <0669>_, which Asa <0609> his father <01> had taken <03920> (8804)_.
3And the LORD <03068> was with Jehoshaphat <03092>_, because he walked <01980> (8804) in the first <07223> ways <01870> of his father <01> David <01732>_, and sought <01875> (8804) not unto Baalim <01168>_; {of...: or, of his father, and of David}
4But sought <01875> (8804) to the [LORD] God <0430> of his father <01>_, and walked <01980> (8804) in his commandments <04687>_, and not after the doings <04639> of Israel <03478>_.
5Therefore the LORD <03068> stablished <03559> (8686) the kingdom <04467> in his hand <03027>_; and all Judah <03063> brought <05414> (8799) to Jehoshaphat <03092> presents <04503>_; and he had riches <06239> and honour <03519> in abundance <07230>_. {brought: Heb. gave}
6And his heart <03820> was lifted up <01361> (8799) in the ways <01870> of the LORD <03068>_: moreover he took away <05493> (8689) the high places <01116> and groves <0842> out of Judah <03063>_. {was...: that is, was encouraged}

8And with them [he sent] Levites <03881>_, [even] Shemaiah <08098>_, and Nethaniah <05418>_, and Zebadiah <02069>_, and Asahel <06214>_, and Shemiramoth <08070>_, and Jehonathan <03083>_, and Adonijah <0138>_, and Tobijah <02900>_, and Tobadonijah <02899>_, Levites <03881>_; and with them Elishama <0476> and Jehoram <03088>_, priests <03548>_.
9And they taught <03925> (8762) in Judah <03063>_, and [had] the book <05612> of the law <08451> of the LORD <03068> with them, and went about <05437> (8799) throughout all the cities <05892> of Judah <03063>_, and taught <03925> (8762) the people <05971>_.
10And the fear <06343> of the LORD <03068> fell upon all the kingdoms <04467> of the lands <0776> that [were] round about <05439> Judah <03063>_, so that they made no war <03898> (8738) against Jehoshaphat <03092>_. {fell: Heb. was}
11Also [some] of the Philistines <06430> brought <0935> (8688) Jehoshaphat <03092> presents <04503>_, and tribute <04853> silver <03701>_; and the Arabians <06163> brought <0935> (8688) him flocks <06629>_, seven <07651> thousand <0505> and seven <07651> hundred <03967> rams <0352>_, and seven <07651> thousand <0505> and seven <07651> hundred <03967> he goats <08495>_.
12And Jehoshaphat <03092> waxed <01980> (8802) great <01432> exceedingly <04605>_; and he built <01129> (8799) in Judah <03063> castles <01003>_, and cities <05892> of store <04543>_. {castles: or, palaces}
13And he had much <07227> business <04399> in the cities <05892> of Judah <03063>_: and the men <0582> of war <04421>_, mighty men <01368> of valour <02428>_, [were] in Jerusalem <03389>_.
14And these [are] the numbers <06486> of them according to the house <01004> of their fathers <01>_: Of Judah <03063>_, the captains <08269> of thousands <0505>_; Adnah <05734> the chief <08269>_, and with him mighty men <01368> of valour <02428> three <07969> hundred <03967> thousand <0505>_.
15And next <03027> to him [was] Jehohanan <03076> the captain <08269>_, and with him two hundred <03967> and fourscore <08084> thousand <0505>_. {next...: Heb. at his hand}
16And next <03027> him [was] Amasiah <06007> the son <01121> of Zichri <02147>_, who willingly offered <05068> (8693) himself unto the LORD <03068>_; and with him two hundred <03967> thousand <0505> mighty men <01368> of valour <02428>_.

19These waited <08334> (8764) on the king <04428>_, beside [those] whom the king <04428> put <05414> (8804) in the fenced <04013> cities <05892> throughout all Judah <03063>_.
