2CH-19:1 And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house

in peace to Jerusalem.

2CH-19:2 And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet

him, and said to king Jehoshaphat, Shouldest thou help the

ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD? therefore [is] wrath

upon thee from before the LORD.

2CH-19:3 Nevertheless there are good things found in thee, in

that thou hast taken away the groves out of the land, and hast

prepared thine heart to seek God.

2CH-19:4 And Jehoshaphat dwelt at Jerusalem: and he went out

again through the people from Beersheba to mount Ephraim, and

brought them back unto the LORD God of their fathers.

2CH-19:5 And he set judges in the land throughout all the fenced

cities of Judah, city by city,

2CH-19:6 And said to the judges, Take heed what ye do: for ye

judge not for man, but for the LORD, who [is] with you in the

judgment.

2CH-19:7 Wherefore now let the fear of the LORD be upon you;

take heed and do [it]: for [there is] no iniquity with the LORD

our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of gifts.

2CH-19:8 Moreover in Jerusalem did Jehoshaphat set of the

Levites, and [of] the priests, and of the chief of the fathers

of Israel, for the judgment of the LORD, and for controversies,

when they returned to Jerusalem.

2CH-19:9 And he charged them, saying, Thus shall ye do in the

fear of the LORD, faithfully, and with a perfect heart.

2CH-19:10 And what cause soever shall come to you of your

brethren that dwell in their cities, between blood and blood,

between law and commandment, statutes and judgments, ye shall

even warn them that they trespass not against the LORD, and [so]

wrath come upon you, and upon your brethren: this do, and ye

shall not trespass.

2CH-19:11 And, behold, Amariah the chief priest [is] over you in

all matters of the LORD; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the

ruler of the house of Judah, for all the king's matters: also

the Levites [shall be] officers before you. Deal courageously,

and the LORD shall be with the good.
