4 mas buscou o Deus de seu pai, e andou em seus mandamentos, e não segundo as obras de Israel.

5 Por isso o SENHOR confirmou o reino em sua mão, e todo Judá deu presentes a Josafá; e teve riquezas e glória em abundância.

6 E animou-se seu coração nos caminhos do SENHOR, e tirou os altos e os bosques de Judá.

7 Ao terceiro ano de seu reinado enviou seus príncipes Bene-Hail, Obadias, Zacarias, Natanael e Micaías, para que ensinassem nas cidades de Judá;

8 E com eles aos levitas, Semaías, Netanias, Zebadias, e Asael, e Semiramote, e Jônatas, e Adonias, e Tobias, e Tobadonias, levitas; e com eles a Elisama e a Jorão, sacerdotes.
