2 Chronicles 19:7-9

International Children’s Bible

⁷ Now let each of you fear the Lord. Be careful in what you do because the Lord our God wants people to be fair. He wants all people to be treated the same. And he doesn’t want people to accept money to change their judgments.”

⁸ And in Jerusalem Jehoshaphat appointed some of the Levites, priests and leaders of Israelite families to be judges. They were to decide cases about the law of the Lord. And they were to settle problems between the people who lived in Jerusalem. ⁹ Jehoshaphat gave them commands. He said, “You must always serve the Lord completely. You must fear him.
