He walked in the way of his father Asa and did not stray from it, doing what was right in the eyes of Adonai.

Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah. He was 35 years old when he began to reign, and he reigned for 25 years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Azubah the daughter of Shlihi.

Adonai rewarded me for my righteousness. For the cleanness of my hands He repaid me.
For he flatters himself in his own eyes, too much to notice his iniquity —or hate it.
