New International Reader's Version

³ But there’s some good in you. You have removed all the poles in the land used to worship the female god named Asherah. And you have worshiped God with all your heart.”

Jehoshaphat Appoints Judges

⁴ Jehoshaphat lived in Jerusalem. He went out again among the people. He went from Beersheba to the hill country of Ephraim. He turned the people back to the Lord, the God of Israel. ⁵ Jehoshaphat appointed judges in the land. He put them in all the cities of Judah that had high walls around them.
