The Scriptures 1998

1 Kings 22:36-47 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

36. And as the sun was going down, a shout passed through the camp, saying, “Each to his city, and each to his land!”

37. So the sovereign died and was brought to Shomeron, and they buried the sovereign in Shomeron.

38. And when the chariot was washed at a pool in Shomeron, the dogs licked up his blood, where the whores bathed, according to the word of יהוה which He had spoken.

39. And the rest of the acts of Aḥaḇ and all that he did, and the ivory house which he built and all the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the annals of the sovereigns of Yisra’ĕl?

40. So Aḥaḇ slept with his fathers, and Aḥazyahu his son reigned in his place.

41. And Yehoshaphat son of Asa began to reign over Yehuḏah in the fourth year of Aḥaḇ sovereign of Yisra’ĕl.

42. Yehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became sovereign, and he reigned twenty-five years in Yerushalayim. And his mother’s name was Azuḇah the daughter of Shilḥi.

43. And he walked in all the ways of his father Asa. He did not turn aside from them, doing what was right in the eyes of יהוה. Only, the high places were not taken away, for the people slaughtered and burned incense on the high places.

44. And Yehoshaphat made peace with the sovereign of Yisra’ĕl.

45. And the rest of the acts of Yehoshaphat, and the might that he showed, and how he fought, are they not written in the book of the annals of the sovereigns of Yehuḏah?

46. And the rest of the cult prostitutes, who remained in the days of his father Asa, he cleared out from the land.

47. And there was then no sovereign in Eḏom, a deputy was sovereign.
