2 Tawarikh 17:6

17:6 He was committed to following the Lord; ¹  he even removed the high places and Asherah poles from Judah.

2 Tawarikh 19:9

19:9 He commanded them: “Carry out your duties with respect for the Lord, with honesty, and with pure motives. ² 

[17:6]  ¹ tn Heb “and his heart was high in the ways of the Lord.” Perhaps גָּבַהּ (gavah, “be high”) here means “be cheerful” (HALOT 171 s.v.) or “be encouraged” (BDB 147 s.v. 3.a).

[19:9]  ² tn Heb “This you must do with the fear of the Lord, with honesty, and with a complete heart.”
