The Arabians also brought him flocks, seven thousand seven hundred rams, and seven thousand seven hundred he-goats. 12And Jehoshaphat waxed exceeding great; and he built in Judah castles and store-cities. 13And he had much business in the cities of Judah; and men of war, strong and valiant, in Jerusalem. 14And these are the numbers of them according to their fathers' houses. Of Judah the captains of thousands: Adnah the captain, and with him three hundred thousand mighty men of valour; 15and next to him was Johanan the captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand; 16and next to him, Amasiah the son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself to Jehovah; and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valour. 17And of Benjamin: Eliada, a mighty man of valour, and with him two hundred thousand, armed with bow and shield; 18and next to him was Jehozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty thousand ready prepared for war. 19These were they that waited on the king, besides those that the king had put in the fortified cities throughout Judah. ‹Previous chapter2 Chronicles 16Next chapter2 Chronicles 18›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.Versions2 Chronicles 17 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
