14:020:027 Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and
           Jehoshaphat in the forefront of them, to go again to Jerusalem
           with joy; for the lord had made them to rejoice over their
           enemies.

14:020:028 And they came to Jerusalem with psalteries and harps and
           trumpets unto the house of the lord.

14:020:029 And the fear of God was on all the kingdoms of those
           countries, when they had heard that the lord fought against
           the enemies of Israel.

14:020:030 So the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet:  for his God gave him
           rest round about.

14:020:031 And Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah:  he was thirty and five
           years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and
           five years in Jerusalem.  And his mother’s name was Azubah the
           daughter of Shilhi.

14:020:032 And he walked in the way of Asa his father, and departed not
           from it, doing that which was right in the sight of the lord.

14:020:033 Howbeit the high places were not taken away:  for as yet the
           people had not prepared their hearts unto the God of their
           fathers.

14:020:034 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last,
           behold, they are written in the book of Jehu the son of
           Hanani, who is mentioned in the book of the kings of Israel.

14:020:035 And after this did Jehoshaphat king of Judah join himself with
           Ahaziah king of Israel, who did very wickedly: 

14:020:036 And he joined himself with him to make ships to go to
           Tarshish:  and they made the ships in Eziongaber.

14:020:037 Then Eliezer the son of Dodavah of Mareshah prophesied against
           Jehoshaphat, saying, Because thou hast joined thyself with
           Ahaziah, the lord hath broken thy works.  And the ships were
           broken, that they were not able to go to Tarshish.

14:021:001 Now Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with
           his fathers in the city of David.  And Jehoram his son reigned
           in his stead.

14:021:002 And he had brethren the sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and
           Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and
           Shephatiah:  all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of
           Israel.

14:021:003 And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold,
           and of precious things, with fenced cities in Judah:  but the
           kingdom gave he to Jehoram; because he was the firstborn.

14:021:004 Now when Jehoram was risen up to the kingdom of his father, he
           strengthened himself, and slew all his brethren with the
           sword, and divers also of the princes of Israel.
