³And the LORD was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the first ways of his father David, and sought not unto Baalim;

⁴But sought to the LORD God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.

⁵Therefore the LORD stablished the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah brought to Jehoshaphat presents; and he had riches and honour in abundance.

⁶And his heart was lifted up in the ways of the LORD: moreover he took away the high places and groves out of Judah.
