2 Kings 23:25-30

25And like unto him was there noH3808 kingH4428 beforeH6440 him, that turnedH7725 to the LORDH3068 with allH3605 his heartH3824, and with allH3605 his soulH5315, and with allH3605 his might, accordingH413 to allH3605 the lawH8451 of MosesH4872; neitherH3808 afterH310 him aroseH6965 there anyH3605 like him.

26Notwithstanding the LORDH3068 turnedH7725 notH3808 from the fiercenessH2740 of his greatH1419 wrathH639, wherewith his angerH639 was kindledH2734 againstH5921 JudahH3063, becauseH5921 of allH3605 the provocations that ManassehH4519 had provokedH3707 him withal.

27And the LORDH3068 saidH559, I will removeH5493 JudahH3063 also outH6440 of my sightH6440, as I have removedH5493 IsraelH3478, and I will cast offH5921 this cityH5892 whichH834 I have chosenH977, evenH1571 JerusalemH3389, and the houseH1004 of whichH834 I saidH559, My nameH8034 shall be there.

28NowH3117 the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of JosiahH2977, and allH3605 that he didH6213, are they notH3808 writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063?

29In his daysH3117 Pharaoh-necoh kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 wentH5927 upH5927 againstH5921 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 to the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578: and kingH4428 JosiahH2977 wentH5927 againstH5921 him; and he slew him at MegiddoH4023, when he had seenH7200 him.

30And his servantsH5650 carriedH7392 him in a chariotH7392 deadH4191 from MegiddoH4023, and broughtH935 him to JerusalemH3389, and buriedH6912 him in his own sepulchre. And the peopleH5971 of the landH776 tookH3947 JehoahazH3059 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977, and anointedH4886 him, and madeH3947 him kingH4427 in his father’sH1 steadH8478.
