2 Chronicles 35:22-27

22However, Josiah would not turn 1away from him, but 2disguised himself in order to make war with him; nor did he listen to the words of Neco 3from the mouth of God, but came to make war on the plain of 4Megiddo.

23The archers shot King Josiah, and the king said to his servants, “Take me away, for I am badly wounded.”

24So his servants took him out of the chariot and carried him in the second chariot which he had, and brought him to Jerusalem 5where he died and was buried in the tombs of his fathers. 6All Judah and Jerusalem mourned for Josiah.

25Then 7Jeremiah chanted a lament for Josiah. And all the male and female singers speak about Josiah in their lamentations to this day. And they made them an ordinance in Israel; behold, they are also written in the Lamentations.

26Now the rest of the acts of Josiah and his deeds of devotion as written in the law of the Lord,

27and his acts, first to last, behold, they are written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah.
