2Chronicles:19:4-11
Seeker Overlay ON
*
So Jehoshaphat dwelt at Jerusalem ;
and he went out again among the people from Beersheba to the mountains of Ephraim ,
and brought them back to the LORD God of their fathers .
*
Then he set judges in the land throughout all the fortified cities of Judah ,
city by city ,
*
and said to the judges , "
Take heed to what you are doing ,
for you do not judge for man but for the LORD ,
who is with you in the judgment .
*
Now therefore ,
let the fear of the LORD be upon you ;
take care and do it ,
for there is no iniquity with the LORD our God ,
no partiality ,
nor taking of bribes ."
*
Moreover in Jerusalem ,
for the judgment of the LORD and for controversies ,
Jehoshaphat appointed some of the Levites and priests ,
and some of the chief fathers of Israel ,
when they returned to Jerusalem .
*
And he commanded them ,
saying , "
Thus you shall act in the fear of the LORD ,
faithfully and with a loyal heart :
*
Whatever case comes to you from your brethren who dwell in their cities ,
whether of bloodshed or offenses against law or commandment ,
against statutes or ordinances ,
you shall warn them ,
lest they trespass against the LORD and wrath come upon you and your brethren .
Do this ,
and you will not be guilty .
*
And take notice :
Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of the LORD ;
and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael ,
the ruler of the house of Judah ,
for all the king '
s matters ;
also the Levites will be officials before you .
Behave courageously ,
and the LORD will be with the good ."
