37. And the king died, b and was carried into Samaria: and they buried the king in Samaria.
38. And they washed his chariot in the pool of Samaria, and the dogs licked up his blood, and they washed the reins, according to the word of the Lord which he had spoken.
39. But the rest of the acts of Achab, and all that he did, and the house of ivory that he made, and all the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
40. So Achab slept with his fathers, and Ochozias his son reigned in his stead.
41. But Josaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Juda in the fourth year of Achab king of Israel.
42. He was five and thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned five and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Azuba the daughter of Salai.
43. And he walked in all the way of Asa his father, and he declined not from it: and he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord.
44. Nevertheless he took not away the high places: for as Set the people offered sacrifices and burnt incense in the high places.
45. And Josaphat had peace with the king of Israel.
46. But the rest of the acts of Josaphat, and his works which he did, and his battles, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
47. And the remnant also of the effeminate, who remained in the days of Asa his father, he took out of the land.
48. And there was then no king appointed in Edom.
49. But king Josaphat made navies on the sea, to sail into Ophir for gold: but they could not go, for the ships were broken in Asiongaber.
50. Then Ochozias the son of Achab said to Josaphat: Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships. And Josaphat would not.
51. And Josaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David his father: and Joram his son reigned in his stead.
52. And Ochozias the son of Achab began to reign over Israel in Samaria, in the seventeenth gear of Josaphat king of Juda, and he reigned over Israel two years,
53. And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the way of his father and his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.
54. He served also Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked the Lord the God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
