2 Chronicles 35:22-24

35:22 But Josiah did not turn back from him; ¹  he disguised himself for battle. He did not take seriously ²  the words of Necho which he had received from God; he went to fight him in the Plain of Megiddo. ³  35:23 Archers shot King Josiah; the king ordered his servants, “Take me out of this chariot, ⁴  for I am seriously wounded.” 35:24 So his servants took him out of the chariot, put him in another chariot that he owned, and brought him to Jerusalem, ⁵  where he died. He was buried in the tombs of his ancestors; ⁶  all the people of Judah and Jerusalem mourned Josiah.
