2 Chronicles 17:5-6
17:5 The Lord made his kingdom secure; 1 all Judah brought tribute to Jehoshaphat, and he became very wealthy and greatly respected. 2
17:6 He was committed to following the Lord; 3 he even removed the high places and Asherah poles from Judah.
1 tn Heb “established the kingdom in his hand.”
2 tn Heb “and he had wealth and honor in abundance.”
3 tn Heb “and his heart was high in the ways of the Lord.” Perhaps גָּבַהּ (gavah, “be high”) here means “be cheerful” (HALOT 171 s.v.) or “be encouraged” (BDB 147 s.v. 3.a).
