Und er baute feste Städte in Juda, weil das Land still und kein Streit wider ihn war in denselben Jahren; denn der HERR gab ihm Ruhe.

Il fit disparaître de toutes les villes de Juda les hauts lieux et les statues consacrées au soleil. Et le royaume fut en repos devant lui.
Tolse eziandio via, da tutte le città di Giuda, gli alti luoghi ed i simulacri; e il regno ebbe riposo mentre egli visse.
Também tirou de todas as cidades de Judá os altos e as imagens; e sob ele o reino esteve em paz.
又在 猶大 各城鎮除掉丘壇和香壇。在他治理下,國中太平。
