1 Tada se zacari Josafat, sin njegov, na njegovo mesto, i ukrepi se na Izrailja. 2 I ponamešta vojsku po svim tvrdim gradovima Judinim, i ponamešta straže po zemlji Judinoj i po gradovima Jefremovim, koje zadobi Asa, otac njegov. 3 I beše Gospod s Josafatom, jer hođaše prvim putevima Davida oca svog i ne tražaše Vala. 4 Nego Boga oca svog tražaše i po zapovestima Njegovim hođaše, i ne činjaše kao sinovi Izrailjevi. 5 Zato utvrdi Gospod carstvo u ruci njegovoj, i sav narod Judin davaše dare Josafatu, te imaše veliko blago i slavu. 6 I srce se njegovo oslobodi na putevima Gospodnjim, te još obori visine i lugove u Judeji. 7 I treće godine svog carovanja posla knezove svoje Ven-Aila i Ovadiju i Zahariju i Natanaila i Miheju da uče po gradovima Judinim; 8 i s njima Levite: Semaju i Nataniju i Zevadiju i Asaila i Semiramota i Jonatana i Adoniju i Toviju i Tov-Adoniju, Levite, i s njima Elisamu i Jorama sveštenike. 9 I učahu po Judeji imajući pri sebi knjigu zakona Gospodnjeg, i prohođahu sve gradove Judine učeći narod. 10 I dođe strah Gospodnji na sva carstva po zemljama oko Jude, te ne vojevaše na Josafata. 11 I sami Filisteji donošahu Josafatu dare i danak u novcu; i Arapi dogonjahu mu stoku, po sedam hiljada i sedam stotina ovnova i po sedam hiljada i sedam stotina jaraca. 12 Tako napredovaše Josafat i podiže se veoma; i sazida u Judeji kule i gradove za žitnice. 13 I imaše mnogo dobra po gradovima Judinim, i vojnika, hrabrih junaka u Jerusalimu. 14 A ovo je broj njihov po domovima otaca njihovih; od Jude hiljadnici: Adna vojvoda, s kojim beše tri stotine hiljada hrabrih junaka. 15 A za njim Joanam vojvoda, s kojim beše dvesta osamdeset hiljada; 16 a za njim Amasija sin Zihrijev, koji se dragovoljno dade Gospodu, i s kim beše dvesta hiljada hrabrih junaka. 17 A od Venijamina: hrabri junak Elijada, s kojim beše dvesta hiljada naoružanih lukom i štitom; 18 a za njim Jozavad, s kojim beše sto i osamdeset hiljada naoružanih za boj. 19 Ovi služahu caru osim onih koje ponamešta car po tvrdim gradovima u svoj zemlji Judinoj.
