2 Chronicles 17:6 in Context — 2 Chronicles 17
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.
8 Il envoya avec eux les Lévites Schemaeja, Nethania, Zebadia, Asaël, Schemiramoth, Jonathan, Adonija, Tobija et Tob-Adonija, Lévites, et les sacrificateurs Élischama et Joram.
