2 Chronicles 19:2-3

2 Then Jehu son of Hanani the seer went out to confront him[a] and said to King Jehoshaphat, "Do you help the wicked and love those who hate the Lord? Because of this, the Lord's wrath is on you.
3 However, some good is found in you, for you have removed the Asherah poles from the land and have decided to seek God."[b]
