2 Chronicles 17:2 in Context — 2 Chronicles 17

1 Josaphat, son fils, régna à sa place.

2 Il se fortifia contre Israël: il mit des troupes dans toutes les villes fortes de Juda, et des garnisons dans le pays de Juda et dans les villes d’Éphraïm dont Asa, son père, s’était emparé.

3 L’Éternel fut avec Josaphat, parce qu’il marcha dans les premières voies de David, son père, et qu’il ne rechercha point les Baals;

4 car il eut recours au Dieu de son père, et il suivit ses commandements, sans imiter ce que faisait Israël.
