역대하 17장 NASB
- 1 Jehoshaphat his son then became king in his place and made his position over Israel firm.
- 2 He placed troops in all the fortified cities of Judah and set garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim which Asa his father had captured.
- 3 The LORD was with Jehoshaphat because he followed the example of his father David's earlier days and did not seek the Baals
- 4 but sought the God of his father followed His commandments and did not act as Israel did.
- 5 So the LORD established the kingdom in his control and all Judah brought tribute to Jehoshaphat and he had great riches and honor.
- 6 He took great pride in the ways of the LORD and again removed the high places and the Asherim from Judah.
- 7 Then in the third year of his reign he sent his officials Ben-hail Obadiah Zechariah Nethanel and Micaiah to teach in the cities of Judah;
- 8 and with them the Levites Shemaiah Nethaniah Zebadiah Asahel Shemiramoth Jehonathan Adonijah Tobijah and Tobadonijah the Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram the priests.
- 9 They taught in Judah having the book of the law of the LORD with them; and they went throughout all the cities of Judah and taught among the people.
- 10 Now the dread of the LORD was on all the kingdoms of the lands which were around Judah so that they did not make war against Jehoshaphat.
- 11 Some of the Philistines brought gifts and silver as tribute to Jehoshaphat; the Arabians also brought him flocks 7700 rams and 7700 male goats.
- 12 So Jehoshaphat grew greater and greater and he built fortresses and store cities in Judah.
- 13 He had large supplies in the cities of Judah and warriors valiant men in Jerusalem.
- 14 This was their muster according to their fathers' households: of Judah commanders of thousands Adnah was the commander and with him 300000 valiant warriors;
- 15 and next to him was Johanan the commander and with him 280000;
- 16 and next to him Amasiah the son of Zichri who volunteered for the LORD and with him 200000 valiant warriors;
- 17 and of Benjamin Eliada a valiant warrior and with him 200000 armed with bow and shield;
- 18 and next to him Jehozabad and with him 180000 equipped for war.
- 19 These are they who served the king apart from those whom the king put in the fortified cities through all Judah.
