And JehoshaphatH3092 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead, and strengthenedH2388 himself against IsraelH3478.
And he placedH5414 forcesH2428 in all the fencedH1219 citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and setH5414 garrisonsH5333 in the landH776 of JudahH3063, and in the citiesH5892 of EphraimH669, which AsaH609 his fatherH1 had takenH3920.
And the LORDH3068 was with JehoshaphatH3092, because he walkedH1980 in the firstH7223 waysH1870 of his fatherH1 DavidH1732, and soughtH1875 not unto BaalimH1168; {of…: or, of his father, and of David}
But soughtH1875 to the LORD GodH430 of his fatherH1, and walkedH1980 in his commandmentsH4687, and not after the doingsH4639 of IsraelH3478.
Therefore the LORDH3068 stablishedH3559 the kingdomH4467 in his handH3027; and all JudahH3063 broughtH5414 to JehoshaphatH3092 presentsH4503; and he had richesH6239 and honourH3519 in abundanceH7230. {brought: Heb. gave}
And his heartH3820 was lifted upH1361 in the waysH1870 of the LORDH3068: moreover he took awayH5493 the high placesH1116 and grovesH842 out of JudahH3063. {was…: that is, was encouraged}
Also in the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of his reignH4427 he sentH7971 to his princesH8269, even to BenhailH1134, and to ObadiahH5662, and to ZechariahH2148, and to NethaneelH5417, and to MichaiahH4322, to teachH3925 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063.
And with them he sent LevitesH3881, even ShemaiahH8098, and NethaniahH5418, and ZebadiahH2069, and AsahelH6214, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehonathanH3083, and AdonijahH138, and TobijahH2900, and TobadonijahH2899, LevitesH3881; and with them ElishamaH476 and JehoramH3088, priestsH3548.
And they taughtH3925 in JudahH3063, and had the bookH5612 of the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068 with them, and went aboutH5437 throughout all the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and taughtH3925 the peopleH5971.
And the fearH6343 of the LORDH3068 fell upon all the kingdomsH4467 of the landsH776 that were round aboutH5439 JudahH3063, so that they made no warH3898 against JehoshaphatH3092. {fell: Heb. was}
Also some of the PhilistinesH6430 broughtH935 JehoshaphatH3092 presentsH4503, and tributeH4853 silverH3701; and the ArabiansH6163 broughtH935 him flocksH6629, sevenH7651 thousandH505 and sevenH7651 hundredH3967 ramsH352, and sevenH7651 thousandH505 and sevenH7651 hundredH3967 he goatsH8495.
And JehoshaphatH3092 waxedH1980 greatH1432 exceedinglyH4605; and he builtH1129 in JudahH3063 castlesH1003, and citiesH5892 of storeH4543. {castles: or, palaces}
And he had muchH7227 businessH4399 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063: and the menH582 of warH4421, mighty menH1368 of valourH2428, were in JerusalemH3389.
And these are the numbersH6486 of them according to the houseH1004 of their fathersH1: Of JudahH3063, the captainsH8269 of thousandsH505; AdnahH5734 the chiefH8269, and with him mighty menH1368 of valourH2428 threeH7969 hundredH3967 thousandH505.
And nextH3027 to him was JehohananH3076 the captainH8269, and with him two hundredH3967 and fourscoreH8084 thousandH505. {next…: Heb. at his hand}
And nextH3027 him was AmasiahH6007 the sonH1121 of ZichriH2147, who willingly offeredH5068 himself unto the LORDH3068; and with him two hundredH3967 thousandH505 mighty menH1368 of valourH2428.
And of BenjaminH1144; EliadaH450 a mighty manH1368 of valourH2428, and with him armed menH5401 with bowH7198 and shieldH4043 two hundredH3967 thousandH505.
And nextH3027 him was JehozabadH3075, and with him an hundredH3967 and fourscoreH8084 thousandH505 ready preparedH2502 for the warH6635.
These waitedH8334 on the kingH4428, beside those whom the kingH4428 putH5414 in the fencedH4013 citiesH5892 throughout all JudahH3063.

PraiseH1288 ye the LORDH3068 for the avengingH6544+H6546 of IsraelH3478, when the peopleH5971 willingly offeredH5068 themselves.
My heartH3820 is toward the governorsH2710 of IsraelH3478, that offered themselves willinglyH5068 among the peopleH5971. BlessH1288 ye the LORDH3068.
Then the peopleH5971 rejoicedH8055, for that they offered willinglyH5068, because with perfectH8003 heartH3820 they offered willinglyH5068 to the LORDH3068: and DavidH1732 the kingH4428 also rejoicedH8055 with greatH1419 joyH8057.
But who am I, and what is my peopleH5971, that we should beH6113 ableH3581 to offer so willinglyH5068 after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine ownH3027 have we givenH5414 thee. {be able: Heb. retain, or, obtain strength} {of thine…: Heb. of thine hand}
I knowH3045 also, my GodH430, that thou triestH974 the heartH3824, and hast pleasureH7521 in uprightnessH3476. As for me, in the uprightnessH4339 of mine heartH3824 I have willingly offeredH5068 all these things: and now have I seenH7200 with joyH8057 thy peopleH5971, which are presentH4672 here, to offer willinglyH5068 unto thee. {present: Heb. found}
Thy peopleH5971 shall be willingH5071 in the dayH3117 of thy powerH2428, in the beautiesH1926 of holinessH6944 from the wombH7358 of the morningH4891: thou hast the dewH2919 of thy youthH3208. {from…: or, more than the womb of the morning: thou shalt have, etc}
ForG3754 toG2596 their powerG1411, I bear recordG3140, yea, andG2532 beyondG5228 their powerG1411 they were willing of themselvesG830;
PrayingG1189 usG2257 withG3326 muchG4183 intreatyG3874 that weG2248 would receiveG1209 the giftG5485, andG2532 take upon us the fellowshipG2842 of the ministeringG1248 toG1519 the saintsG40.
AndG2532 this they did, notG3756 asG2531 we hopedG1679, butG235 firstG4412 gaveG1325 their own selvesG1438 to the LordG2962, andG2532 unto usG2254 byG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316.
