43Jehoshaphat was a good king, just like his father Asa had been. He did things that pleased Yahweh. But while he was king, he did not remove all the pagan altars that the people had built on the hilltops. So the people continued to offer sacrifices to idols on those altars and burned incense there.
44Jehoshaphat also made a peace agreement with the king of Israel.
45All the other things that happened while Jehoshaphat was ruling, and the great things that he did and the victories his troops won, are written in the scroll called ❛The History of the Kings of Judah❜.
46Jehoshaphat's father Asa had tried to expel the male prostitutes that stayed at the pagan shrines, but some of them were still there. Jehoshaphat got rid of them.
47At that time, there was no king in Edom; a ruler who had been appointed by Jehoshaphat ruled there.
