Divrey Hayamim Bais 20:25-34 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

25. And when Yehoshaphat and his people came to carry off the plunder of them, they found among them in abundance both property with the pegarim, and articles of value, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away, and they were yamim shelosha in gathering of the plunder, it was so much.

26. And on the fourth day they assembled themselves in the Berachah Valley, for there they blessed Hashem; therefore the shem of that place was called, The Berachah Valley unto this day.

27. Then they returned, kol ish Yehudah and Yerushalayim, and Yehoshaphat in the forefront of them, to go again to Yerushalayim with simcha; for Hashem had made them to rejoice over their enemies.

28. And they came to Yerushalayim with nevalim and kinnorot and chatzotzerot unto the Beis Hashem.

29. And the Pachad Elohim was on all the kingdoms of those lands, when they had heard that Hashem fought against the oyevei Yisroel.

30. So the Malchut Yehoshaphat was at peace, for Elohav gave him rest on every side.

31. And Yehoshaphat reigned over Yehudah. He was thirty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and five years in Yerushalayim. And shem immo was Azuvah bat Shilchi.

32. And he walked in the derech Aviv Asa, and departed not from it, doing that which was yashar in the sight of Hashem.

33. Howbeit the high places were not removed; for HaAm as yet had not set their hearts unto Elohei Avoteihem.

34. Now the rest of the acts of Yehoshaphat, harishonim and ha'acharonim, hinei, they are written in the Annals of Yehu ben Chanani, who is recorded in the Sefer of the Melachim of Yisroel.
