Jehoshaphat son of Asa began to reign over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel.
Asa slept with his fathers and was buried with them in the city of David his father. Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead.
In the third year Jehoshaphat king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
So Ahab slept with his fathers. Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.
Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother was Azubah daughter of Shilhi.
Solomon's descendants [omitting nonreigning offspring] were: his son Rehoboam. Abijah was his son, Asa his son, Jehoshaphat his son,
JEHOSHAPHAT HIS son reigned in Asa's stead and strengthened himself against Israel.
Thus Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah. He was thirty-five years old when he began his twenty-five-year reign in Jerusalem. His mother was Azubah daughter of Shilhi.
