2 Chronicles 20:28-34 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

28. They entered Jerusalem with lyres, harps, and trumpets and went to the Temple of the Lord.

29. People in all the surrounding kingdoms became afraid of God when they heard that the Lord fought against the enemies of Israel.

30. That is why there was peace for Jehoshaphat’s kingdom—his God brought him rest from the enemies that were all around him.

31. Jehoshaphat ruled over the country of Judah. He was 35 years old when he became king, and he ruled 25 years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Azubah, the daughter of Shilhi.

32-33. Like his father Asa, Jehoshaphat was good and did everything that the Lord wanted, except he did not destroy the high places. Also, the people did not turn back to the God their ancestors worshiped.

34. Everything else Jehoshaphat did, from beginning to end, is written in The Official Records of Jehu Son of Hanani. It was copied and included in the book, The History of the Kings of Israel.
