2 Chronicles 19:1 In-Context

1 Jehoshaphat king of Judah came back safely to his palace in Jerusalem.

2 Jehu son of Hanani, a seer, went out to meet him and said to the king, "Why did you help evil people? Why do you love those who hate the Lord? That is the reason the Lord is angry with you.

3 But there is some good in you. You took the Asherah idols out of this country, and you have tried to obey God."

4 Jehoshaphat lived in Jerusalem. He went out again to be with the people, from Beersheba to the mountains of Ephraim, and he turned them back to the Lord, the God of their ancestors.

5 Jehoshaphat appointed judges in all the land, in each of the strong, walled cities of Judah.
