New Testament

2 Chronicles 20:27-33 English Standard Version (ESV)

27. Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat at their head, returning to Jerusalem with joy, for the Lord had made them rejoice over their enemies.

28. They came to Jerusalem with harps and lyres and trumpets, to the house of the Lord.

29. And the fear of God came on all the kingdoms of the countries when they heard that the Lord had fought against the enemies of Israel.

30. So the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet, for his God gave him rest all around.

31. Thus Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah. He was thirty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.

32. He walked in the way of Asa his father and did not turn aside from it, doing what was right in the sight of the Lord.

33. The high places, however, were not taken away; the people had not yet set their hearts upon the God of their fathers.
