8. Moreover in Jerusalem did Jehoshaphat set of the Levites, and the priests, and of the chief of the fathers of Israel, for the judgment of יְהוָ֥ה, and for controversies, when they returned to Jerusalem.
9. And he charged them, saying, Thus shall ye do in the fear of יְהוָ֥ה, faithfully, and with a perfect heart.
10. And what cause soever shall come to you of your brethren that dwell in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and judgments, ye shall even warn them that they trespass not against יְהוָ֥ה, and wrath come upon you, and upon your brethren: this do, and ye shall not trespass.
11. And, behold, Amariah the chief priest over you in all matters of יְהוָ֥ה; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the ruler of the house of Judah, for all the king's matters: also the Levites officers before you. Deal courageously, and יְהוָ֥ה shall be with the good.
