Lexham English Bible

Jehoash/Joash Reigns in Judah

12 In the seventh year of Jehu, Jehoash became king. He reigned in Jerusalem forty years, and the name of his mother was Zibiah from Beersheba. ² Jehoash did right in the eyes of Yahweh all of his days, because Jehoiada the priest instructed him. ³ Only the high places were not removed; the people were still making sacrifices and offering incense on the high places.
