After this King Jehoshaphat of Judah joined with King Ahaziah of Israel, who did wickedly.
He served Baal and worshiped him; he provoked the Lord, the God of Israel, to anger, just as his father had done.
Now Jehoshaphat had great riches and honor; and he made a marriage alliance with Ahab.
He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as the house of Ahab had done; for the daughter of Ahab was his wife. He did what was evil in the sight of the Lord.
