1 Kings 22:46-48
International Standard Version
46 He also eliminated the male cult prostitutes who still remained from the time of his father Asa.
47 There was no king reigning in Edom; there was only a stand-in[a] king. 48 Jehoshaphat had ocean-going vessels from Tarshish sail to Ophir[b] for gold, but they never made it because they were shipwrecked at Ezion-geber.

46 He rid the land of the rest of the male shrine prostitutes(A) who remained there even after the reign of his father Asa. 47 There was then no king(B) in Edom; a provincial governor ruled.
48 Now Jehoshaphat built a fleet of trading ships[a](C) to go to Ophir for gold, but they never set sail—they were wrecked at Ezion Geber.(D)
