24 Joab the son of Zeruiah began to count, ^gbut did not finish. Yet ^hwrath came upon Israel for this, and the number was not entered in the chronicles of King David.

2 But ^jJehu the son of ^kHanani the seer went out to meet him and said to King Jehoshaphat, “Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the Lord? Because of this, wrath has gone out against you from the Lord.

10 whenever a case ^scomes to you from your brothers who live in their cities, concerning bloodshed, law or commandment, statutes or rules, then you shall warn them, that they may not incur guilt before the Lord and wrath may not come upon you and your brothers. Thus you shall do, and you will not incur guilt.

8 Therefore the wrath of the Lord came on Judah and Jerusalem, and he has made them an object of ^ehorror, of astonishment, and of hissing, as you see with your own eyes.

25 But Hezekiah did not make return according to the benefit done to him, for his heart was proud. Therefore ⁿwrath came upon him and Judah and Jerusalem.

26 ^oBut Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the Lord ^pdid not come upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
