2 Chronicles 26:5-7

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁵ He set himself to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who instructed him in the things of God; and as long as he sought (inquired of, yearned for) the Lord, God made him prosper.

⁶ He went out against the Philistines and broke down the walls of Gath, of Jabneh, and of Ashdod, and built cities near Ashdod and elsewhere among the Philistines.

⁷ And God helped him against the Philistines, and the Arabs who dwelt in Gur-baal and the Meunim.
