4 Jehoshaphat lived at Jerusalem. And he went out again among the people, from Beersheba to ^vthe hill country of Ephraim, and brought them back to the Lord, the God of their fathers. 5 He appointed ^wjudges in the land in all ^xthe fortified cities of Judah, city by city, 6 and said to the judges, “Consider what you do, ^yfor you judge not for man but for the Lord. He is with you in giving judgment. 7 Now then, let the fear of the Lord be upon you. Be careful what you do, for ^zthere is no injustice with the Lord our God, ^aor partiality or taking bribes.”
