2 Chronicles 14:5-7

5And he removed out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the sun-images; and the kingdom was quiet before him.

6And he built fortified cities in Judah, for the land had rest, and he had no war in those years; because Jehovah had given him rest.

7And he said to Judah, Let us build these cities, and surround them with walls and towers, gates and bars, while the land is yet before us; for we have sought Jehovah our 1God; we have sought him, and he has given us rest on every side. And they built and prospered.
