2 Chronicles 35:21-24

21But 1Neco sentH7971 messengersH4397 to him, sayingH559, “2 3WhatH4100 business do you have with me, KingH4428 of JudahH3063? I am not coming againstH5921 you todayH3117, but againstH413 the houseH1004 with which I am at warH4421, and GodH430 has toldH559 me to hurryH926. For your own sake, stopH2308 interfering with GodH430 whoH834 is with me, so that He does not destroyH7843 you.”

22However, JosiahH2977 would not turnH5437 4awayH5437 from him, but 5disguisedH2664 himself in order to fightH3898 against him; norH3808 did he listenH8085 to the wordsH1697 of NecoH5224 6from the mouthH6310 of GodH430, but he cameH935 to wageH3898 warH3898 on the plainH1237 of 7MegiddoH4023.

23The archersH3384 shotH3384 KingH4428 JosiahH2977, and the kingH4428 saidH559 to his servantsH5650, “TakeH5674 me awayH5674, for I amH2470 badlyH3966 woundedH2470.”

24So his servantsH5650 tookH5674 him outH5674 of the chariotH4818 and carriedH7392 him on the secondH4932 chariotH7393 whichH834 he had, and broughtH1980 him to JerusalemH3389 8where he diedH4191 and was buriedH6912 in the tombsH6913 of his fathersH1. 9AllH3605 JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389 mournedH56 for JosiahH2977.
