1 Kings 22:41-51

411Now Jehoshaphat the son of Asa became king over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel. 42Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi. 432He walked in all the way of Asa his father; he did not turn aside from it, doing right in the sight of the Lord. 3However, the high places were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and burnt incense on the high places. 444Jehoshaphat also made peace with the king of Israel.

45Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his might which he showed and how he warred, are they not written 5in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? 46The remnant of 6the sodomites who remained in the days of his father Asa, he 7expelled from the land.

47Now 8there was no king in Edom; a deputy was king. 48Jehoshaphat made 9ships of Tarshish to go to 10Ophir for gold, but 11they did not go for the ships were broken at 12Ezion-geber. 49Then Ahaziah the son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “Let my servants go with your servants in the ships.” But Jehoshaphat was not willing. 5013And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers and was buried with his fathers in the city of his father David, and Jehoram his son became king in his place.

51Ahaziah the son of Ahab 14became king over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned two years over Israel.
