2 Kings 23:21-27
21And the kingH4428 commandedH6680 all the peopleH5971, sayingH559, Keep the passoverH6453 unto Jehovah your GodH430, as it is writtenH3789 in this bookH5612 of the covenantH1285. 22Surely there was not kept such a passoverH6453 from the daysH3117 of the judgesH8199 that judgedH8199 IsraelH3478, nor in all the daysH3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478, nor of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063; 23but in the eighteenth yearH8141 of kingH4428 JosiahH2977 was this passoverH6453 kept to Jehovah in JerusalemH3389.
24Moreover them that had familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the teraphimH8655, and the idolsH1544, and all the abominationsH8251 that were seenH7200 in the landH776 of JudahH3063 and in JerusalemH3389, did JosiahH2977 put away, that he might confirm the wordsH1697 of the lawH8451 which were writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 that HilkiahH2518 the priestH3548 foundH4672 in the houseH1004 of Jehovah. 25And like unto him wasH1961 there no kingH4428 before him, that turnedH7725 to Jehovah with all his heartH3824, and with all his soulH5315, and with all his might, according to all the lawH8451 of MosesH4872; neither after him aroseH6965 there any like him.
26Notwithstanding, Jehovah turnedH7725 not from the fierceness of his greatH1419 wrath, wherewith his angerH639 was kindled against JudahH3063, because of all the provocations wherewith ManassehH4519 had provokedH3707 him. 27And Jehovah saidH559, I will removeH5493 JudahH3063 alsoH1571 out of my sight, as I have removedH5493 IsraelH3478, and I will cast off this cityH5892 which I have chosenH977, even JerusalemH3389, and the houseH1004 of which I saidH559, My nameH8034 shall beH1961 there.
