1 Su hijo Josafat reinó en su lugar y se fortaleció contra Israel. 2 Puso tropas en todas las ciudades fortificadas de Judá, y jefes en el territorio de Judá y en las ciudades de Efraín que su padre Asa había conquistado. 3 El Señor estaba con Josafat porque siguió el ejemplo de los primeros años de su padre y no buscó a los baales. 4 Buscó al Dios de su padre y cumplió sus mandamientos, sin seguir las prácticas de Israel. 5 El Señor afirmó su reino. Todo Judá llevaba regalos a Josafat, que llegó a tener muchas riquezas y honor. 6 Josafat seguía los caminos del Señor con ánimo firme. Incluso quitó de Judá los santuarios en los lugares altos y los postes de Asera. 7 En el tercer año de su reinado envió a sus jefes Ben-hail, Abdías, Zacarías, Natanael y Micaías para enseñar en las ciudades de Judá. 8 Con ellos iban los levitas Semaías, Netanías, Zebadías, Asael, Semiramot, Jonatán, Adonías, Tobías y Tob-adonías, y los sacerdotes Elisama y Joram. 9 Llevaban el libro de la ley del Señor y recorrían todas las ciudades de Judá enseñando al pueblo. 10 El temor del Señor cayó sobre todos los reinos vecinos de Judá, y no hicieron guerra contra Josafat. 11 Algunos filisteos le llevaban regalos y le pagaban plata. Los árabes le llevaban rebaños: siete mil setecientas ovejas y siete mil setecientos machos cabríos. 12 Josafat se hacía cada vez más poderoso. Construyó torres fortificadas y ciudades para almacenar provisiones en Judá. 13 Tenía muchos bienes en las ciudades de Judá y soldados fuertes y valientes en Jerusalén. 14 Este es su número, según sus familias. Entre los jefes de mil soldados de Judá estaba el comandante Adna, con trescientos mil soldados. 15 Después de él estaba el comandante Johanán, con doscientos ochenta mil. 16 Después estaba Amasías, hijo de Zicri, que se había dedicado voluntariamente al Señor, con doscientos mil soldados. 17 Entre los jefes de Benjamín estaba Eliada, un guerrero valiente, con doscientos mil hombres armados con arcos y escudos. 18 Después de él estaba Jozabad, con ciento ochenta mil hombres preparados para la guerra. 19 Estos servían al rey, además de los soldados que había puesto en las ciudades fortificadas de todo Judá.
