1 Kings 22:47-49

International Children’s Bible

⁴⁷ During this time the land of Edom had no king. It was ruled by a governor.

⁴⁸ King Jehoshaphat built trading ships to sail to Ophir for gold. But the ships were destroyed at Ezion Geber. So they never set sail. ⁴⁹ Ahaziah son of Ahab went to help Jehoshaphat. Ahaziah said he would give Jehoshaphat some men to sail with his men. But Jehoshaphat refused.
