2 Chronicles 34:1-9

Josiah
<02977>

[was] eight
<08083>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_,

and he reigned
<04427> (8804)

in Jerusalem
<03389>

one
<0259>

and thirty
<07970>

years
<08141>_.

And he did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] right
<03477>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and walked
<03212> (8799)

in the ways
<01870>

of David
<01732>

his father
<01>_,

and declined
<05493> (8804)

[neither] to the right hand
<03225>_,

nor to the left
<08040>_.

For in the eighth
<08083>

year
<08141>

of his reign
<04427> (8800)_,

while he was yet young
<05288>_,

he began
<02490> (8689)

to seek
<01875> (8800)

after the God
<0430>

of David
<01732>

his father
<01>_:

and in the twelfth
<08147> <06240>

year
<08141>

he began
<02490> (8689)

to purge
<02891> (8763)

Judah
<03063>

and Jerusalem
<03389>

from the high places
<01116>_,

and the groves
<0842>_,

and the carved images
<06456>_,

and the molten images
<04541>_.

And they brake down
<05422> (8762)

the altars
<04196>

of Baalim
<01168>

in his presence
<06440>_;

and the images
<02553>_,

that [were] on high above them
<04605>_,

he cut down
<01438> (8765)_;

and the groves
<0842>_,

and the carved images
<06456>_,

and the molten images
<04541>_,

he brake in pieces
<07665> (8765)_,

and made dust
<01854> (8689)

[of them], and strowed
<02236> (8799)

[it] upon
<06440>

the graves
<06913>

of them that had sacrificed
<02076> (8802)

unto them. {the images: or, the sun images} {graves: Heb. face of the graves}

And he burnt
<08313> (8804)

the bones
<06106>

of the priests
<03548>

upon their altars
<04196>_,

and cleansed
<02891> (8762)

Judah
<03063>

and Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And [so did he] in the cities
<05892>

of Manasseh
<04519>_,

and Ephraim
<0669>_,

and Simeon
<08095>_,

even unto Naphtali
<05321>_,

with their mattocks
<02719>

round about
<05439>_.

{mattocks: or, mauls}

And when he had broken down
<05422> (8762)

the altars
<04196>

and the groves
<0842>_,

and had beaten
<03807> (8765)

the graven images
<06456>

into powder
<01854> (8687)_,

and cut down
<01438> (8765)

all the idols
<02553>

throughout all the land
<0776>

of Israel
<03478>_,

he returned
<07725> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_.

{into...: Heb. to make powder}

Now in the eighteenth
<08083> <06240>

year
<08141>

of his reign
<04427> (8800)_,

when he had purged
<02891> (8763)

the land
<0776>_,

and the house
<01004>_,

he sent
<07971> (8804)

Shaphan
<08227>

the son
<01121>

of Azaliah
<0683>_,

and Maaseiah
<04641>

the governor
<08269>

of the city
<05892>_,

and Joah
<03098>

the son
<01121>

of Joahaz
<03099>

the recorder
<02142> (8688)_,

to repair
<02388> (8763)

the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>

his God
<0430>_.

And when they came
<0935> (8799)

to Hilkiah
<02518>

the high
<01419>

priest
<03548>_,

they delivered
<05414> (8799)

the money
<03701>

that was brought
<0935> (8716)

into the house
<01004>

of God
<0430>_,

which the Levites
<03881>

that kept
<08104> (8802)

the doors
<05592>

had gathered
<0622> (8804)

of the hand
<03027>

of Manasseh
<04519>

and Ephraim
<0669>_,

and of all the remnant
<07611>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and of all Judah
<03063>

and Benjamin
<01144>_;

and they returned
<07725> (8799) (8675) <03427> (8802)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
