2 Chronicles 20:28-37

28 They entered Jerusalem with harps, lyres, and trumpets and went to the Temple of the Lord.
29 When all the kingdoms of the lands around them heard how the Lord had fought Israel's enemies, they feared God.
30 So Jehoshaphat's kingdom was not at war. His God gave him peace from all the countries around him.
31 Jehoshaphat ruled over the country of Judah. He was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for twenty-five years. His mother's name was Azubah daughter of Shilhi.
32 Jehoshaphat was good like his father Asa, and he did what the Lord said was right.
33 But the places where gods were worshiped were not removed, and the people did not really want to follow the God of their ancestors.
34 The other things Jehoshaphat did as king, from the beginning to the end, are written in the records of Jehu son of Hanani, which are in the book of the kings of Israel.
35 Later, Jehoshaphat king of Judah made a treaty with Ahaziah king of Israel, which was a wrong thing to do.
36 Jehoshaphat agreed with Ahaziah to build trading ships, which they built in the town of Ezion Geber.
37 Then Eliezer son of Dodavahu from the town of Mareshah spoke against Jehoshaphat. He said, "Jehoshaphat, because you joined with Ahaziah, the Lord will destroy what you have made." The ships were wrecked so they could not sail out to trade.
