2 Kings 12:1-3 - Jehoash/Joash Reigns In Judah
1 Jehoash became king of Judah. It was the seventh year of Jehu's rule over Israel. Jehoash ruled for forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba. 2 Jehoash did what was right in the eyes of Jehovah all his days, because he was guided by the teaching of Jehoiada the priest. 3 The high places were not taken away. The people continued making offerings and burning them in the high places.
