Jehoash did what was right in the eyes of the Lord all his days, because he was guided by the teaching of Jehoiada the priest.
In the seventh year of Jehu's rule, Jehoash became king; and he was ruling for forty years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
But the high places were not taken away; the people went on making offerings and burning them in the high places.
Then King Jehoash sent for Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests, and said to them, Why have you not made good what is damaged in the house? now take no more money from your neighbours, but give it for the building up of the house.
He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, though not like David his father; he did as Joash his father had done.
And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the Lord as long as Jehoiada the priest was living.
He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, but his heart was not completely true to the Lord.
He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Amaziah had done.
