47 Then, too, the remnant of the effeminate, who had remained in the days of Asa, his father, he took away from the land.
48 At that time, there was no king appointed in Idumea.
49 Yet truly, king Jehoshaphat had made a navy on the sea, which would sail to Ophir for gold. But they were unable to go, because the ships were broken down at Eziongeber.
50 Then Ahaziah, the son of Ahab, said to Jehoshaphat, 'Let my servants go with your servants on the ships.' But Jehoshaphat was not willing.
51 And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the city of David, his father. And Jehoram, his son, reigned in his place.
