Löydetty 229 Tulokset: Jehoshaphat's prayer
Now and for the future my eyes are open and my ears attentive to prayer offered in this place, (2 Chronicles 7, 15)
When his son Jehoshaphat succeeded him, he made himself stronger against Israel (2 Chronicles 17, 1)
Yahweh was with Jehoshaphat because he followed the example of his father's earlier days and did not have recourse to Baal, (2 Chronicles 17, 3)
Because of this, Yahweh put him in secure control of the kingdom, while all Judah gave Jehoshaphat presents until ample riches and honour were his. (2 Chronicles 17, 5)
A panic from Yahweh seized all the kings of the countries surrounding Judah, as a result of which they did not make war on Jehoshaphat. (2 Chronicles 17, 10)
Some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents and a load of silver and the Arabs brought him seven thousand seven hundred rams and seven thousand seven hundred he-goats. (2 Chronicles 17, 11)
Jehoshaphat became more and more powerful. He built fortresses and storage towns in Judah. (2 Chronicles 17, 12)
Although Jehoshaphat enjoyed great wealth and honour, he allied himself by marriage to Ahab. (2 Chronicles 18, 1)
Ahab king of Israel then said to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, 'Will you come with me to Ramoth-Gilead?' He replied, 'I will share in battle with you, my men with yours.' (2 Chronicles 18, 3)
Jehoshaphat, however, said to the king of Israel, 'First, please consult the word of Yahweh.' (2 Chronicles 18, 4)
Jehoshaphat, however, said, 'Is there no other prophet of Yahweh here, for us to consult?' (2 Chronicles 18, 6)
The king of Israel answered Jehoshaphat, 'There is one more man through whom we can consult Yahweh, but I hate him because he never has a favourable prophecy for me, always unfavourable ones; he is Micaiah son of Imlah.' 'The king should not say such things,' said Jehoshaphat. (2 Chronicles 18, 7)
