2 Chronicles 17:5 in Context — 2 Chronicles 17

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.

5 L’Éternel affermit la royauté entre les mains de Josaphat, à qui tout Juda apportait des présents, et qui eut en abondance des richesses et de la gloire.

6 Son cœur grandit dans les voies de l’Éternel, et il fit encore disparaître de Juda les hauts lieux et les idoles.

7 La troisième année de son règne, il chargea ses chefs Ben-Haïl, Abdias, Zacharie, Nethaneel et Michée, d’aller enseigner dans les villes de Juda.
