2 Chronicles 20:37

Then Eliezer the son of Dodavah of Mareshah ,.... A city in the tribe of Judah, Joshua 15:44 .

prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, because thou hast joined thyself with Ahaziah ; an idolatrous prince, with whom he ought to have had no fellowship, even in civil things, it being both a countenancing him, and exposing himself and people to danger:

the Lord hath broken thy works ; the ships built at the joint expense of the two kings, that is, the Lord had determined to break them, and now foretold that he would; the Targum is,"the Word of the Lord hath destroyed thy works:"

and the ships were broken, that they were not able to go to Tarshish ; see Gill on 1 Kings 22:48 .
