14:018:033 And a certain man drew a bow at a venture, and smote the king
           of Israel between the joints of the harness:  therefore he said
           to his chariot man, Turn thine hand, that thou mayest carry me
           out of the host; for I am wounded.

14:018:034 And the battle increased that day:  howbeit the king of Israel
           stayed himself up in his chariot against the Syrians until the
           even:  and about the time of the sun going down he died.

14:019:001 And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house in
           peace to Jerusalem.

14:019:002 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.

14:019:003 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.

14:019:004 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.

14:019:005 And he set judges in the land throughout all the fenced cities
           of Judah, city by city,

14:019:006 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.

14:019:007 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.

14:019:008 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.

14:019:009 And he charged them, saying, Thus shall ye do in the fear of
           the lord, faithfully, and with a perfect heart.

14:019:010 And what cause soever shall come to you of your brethren that
           dwell in your 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.

14:019:011 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.
