2 Chronicles 19:3

Jehoshaphat's Reforms

² Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him and said to King Jehoshaphat, “Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the Lord and so bring wrath on yourself from the Lord? ³ But there is some good in you, for you have removed the Asheroth from the land and you have set your heart to seek God.” ⁴ So Jehoshaphat lived in Jerusalem and went out again among the people from Beersheba to the hill country of Ephraim and brought them back to the Lord, the God of their fathers.
