2 Chronicles 19:8-11

« 2 Chron 182 Chron 192 Chron 20 »

8 In Jerusalem also Jehoshaphat appointed some ^aof the Levites and priests, and some of the heads of the fathers’ households of Israel, for the judgment of Yahweh and to judge ¹disputes. So they returned to Jerusalem. 9 Then he commanded them saying, “Thus you shall do in the fear of Yahweh, faithfully and wholeheartedly. 10 ^aWhenever any dispute comes to you from your brothers who live in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and judgments, you shall warn them so that they may not be guilty before Yahweh and ^bwrath may not come on you and your brothers. Thus you shall do, and you will not be guilty. 11 And behold, Amariah the chief priest will be over you in ¹^aall that pertains to Yahweh, and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the ruler of the house of Judah, in ¹all that pertains to the king. Also the Levites shall be officers before you. ^bBe strong and act, and Yahweh be with the one who is good.”
