2 Chronicles 17:1-4

11Jehoshaphat his son then became king in his place, and made his position over Israel firm.

2He placed troops in all 2the fortified cities of Judah, and set garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim 3which Asa his father had captured.

3The Lord was with Jehoshaphat because he 4followed the example of his father David’s earlier days and did not seek the Baals,

4but sought the God of his father, 5followed His commandments, 6and did not act as Israel did.
