CHAP. XVII.
5 Iehoshaphat trusting in the Lorde, prospereth in riches &
honour. 6 He abolisheth idolatrie, 7 And causeth the people
to be taught. 11 He receiueth tribute of strangers. 13
His munitions, and men of warre.
1 And Iehosphat his sonne reigned in his
steade, and preuailed against Israel.
2 And he put garisons in all the strong cities
of Iudah, and set bandes in the lande of Iudah
and in the cities of Ephraim, which Asa his
father had taken.
3 And the Lorde was with Iehoshaphat, because
he walked in the note first wayes of his father
Dauid, and sought not note Baalim,
4 But sought the Lorde God of his father,
and walked in his commandements, and not after
the note trade of Israel.
5 Therefore the Lorde stablished the kingdome
in his hande, and all Iudah brought presents
to Iehoshaphat, so that he had of riches and
honour in abundance.
6 And he note lift vp his heart vnto the wayes
of the Lorde, and he tooke away moreouer the
hie places and the groues out of Iudah.
7 ¶2; And in the thirde yere of his reigne he
sent his princes, Ben-hail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah,
and Nethaneel, and Michaiah, that they
should note teach in the cities of Iudah,
8 And with them Leuites, Shemaiah, and
Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth,
and Iehonathan, and Adoniiah, and
Tobiiah, and Tob-adoniiah, Leuites, and with th&ebar;
Elishama and Iehoram Priestes.
9 And they taught in Iudah, and had the
booke of the Lawe of the Lorde with them, and
went about throughout all the cities of Iudah,
and taught the people.
10 And the feare of the Lorde fell vpon all
the kingdomes of þe; lands that were round about
Iudah, & they note fought not against Iehoshaphat.
11 Also some of the Philistims brought Iehoshaphat
giftes and tribute siluer, and the Arabians
brought him flockes, seuen thousande and seuen
hundreth rammes, and seuen thousande and
seuen hundreth hee goates.
12 So Iehoshaphat prospered and grewe vp
on hie: and he built in Iudah palaces and cities
of store.
13 And he had great workes in the cities of
Iudah, and men of warre, and valiant men in Ierusalem.
14 And these are the nombers of them after
the house of their fathers, In Iudah were captaines
of thousands, Adnah the captaine, & note with
him of valiant men three hundreth thousande.
15 And note at his hande Iehohanan a captaine,
and with him two hundreth and fourescore
thousande.
16 And at his hande Amasiah the sonne of
Zichri, which note willingly offered him selfe vnto
the Lorde, and with him two hundreth thousand
valiant men.
17 And of Beniamin, Eliada a valiant man,
-- --
Ahabs prophets.
and with him armed men with bowe and shielde
two hundreth thousand.
18 And at his hand Iehozabad, and with him
an hundreth and fourescore thousand armed to
the warre.
19 These note waited on the King, besides those
which the King put in the strong cities thoroughout
all Iudah.
