Joash did what was right in the eyes of the Lord all the years of Jehoiada the priest.

And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the Lord all the days of Jehoiada the priest.

Throughout the time of Jehoiada the priest, Joash did what was right in the Lord’s sight.

And Joash did[ that which was] right in the sight of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest.

Joash did that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes all the days of Jehoiada the priest.

He did what the LORD approved, but not with wholehearted devotion.

He did what the LORD approved, just as his father Amaziah had done.He followed God during the lifetime of Zechariah, who taught him how to honor God. As long as he followed the LORD, God caused him to succeed.

But they deceived him with their words, and lied to him.They were not really committed to him, and they were unfaithful to his covenant.

These are the ones sown on rocky ground: As soon as they hear the word, they receive it with joy.But they have no root in themselves and do not endure. Then, when trouble or persecution comes because of the word, immediately they fall away.

After Jehoiada died, the officials of Judah visited the king and declared their loyalty to him. The king listened to their advice.They abandoned the temple of the LORD God of their ancestors, and worshiped the Asherah poles and idols. Because of this sinful activity, God was angry with Judah and Jerusalem.The LORD sent prophets among them to lead them back to him. They warned the people, but they would not pay attention.God’s Spirit energized Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest. He stood up before the people and said to them,“ This is what God says:‘ Why are you violating the commands of the LORD? You will not be prosperous! Because you have rejected the LORD, he has rejected you!’”They plotted against him and by royal decree stoned him to death in the courtyard of the LORD’s temple.King Joash disregarded the loyalty his father Jehoiada had shown him and killed Jehoiada’s son. As Zechariah was dying, he said,“ May the LORD take notice and seek vengeance!”

The sovereign master says,“ These people say they are loyal to me; they say wonderful things about me, but they are not really loyal to me. Their worship consists of nothing but man- made ritual.

Throughout his lifetime Jehoash did what the LORD approved, just as Jehoiada the priest taught him.

They believed his promises; they sang praises to him.They quickly forgot what he had done; they did not wait for his instructions.
