2 Chronicles 14:4

²And he removed the altars of the strange gods, and the high places, and broke the pillars in pieces, and cut down the groves:

³and he told Judah to seek earnestly the Lord God of their fathers, and to perform the law and the commandments.

— 2 Chronicles 14:4 —

⁵fortified cities in the land of Judah; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in these years; for the Lord gave him rest.

⁶And he said to Judah, Let us fortify these cities, and make walls, and towers, and gates, and bars: we shall prevail over the land, for as we have sought out the Lord our God, he has sought out us, and has given us rest round about, and prospered us.
