So Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah. He was thirty-five years old when he became king of Judah, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-five years. His mother's name was Azubah daughter of Shilhi.

He walked in the ways of his father Asa and did not stray from them; he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD .

The high places, however, were not removed, and the people still had not set their hearts on the God of their fathers.

The other events of Jehoshaphat's reign, from beginning to end, are written in the annals of Jehu son of Hanani, which are recorded in the book of the kings of Israel.
