2 Chronicles 35:20-23

After
<0310>

all this, when Josiah
<02977>

had prepared
<03559> (8689)

the temple
<01004>_,

Necho
<05224>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>

came up
<05927> (8804)

to fight
<03898> (8736)

against Carchemish
<03751>

by Euphrates
<06578>_:

and Josiah
<02977>

went out
<03318> (8799)

against
<07125> (8800)

him. {temple: Heb. house}

But he sent
<07971> (8799)

ambassadors
<04397>

to him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

What have I to do with thee, thou king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_?

[I come] not against thee this day
<03117>_,

but against the house
<01004>

wherewith I have war
<04421>_:

for God
<0430>

commanded
<0559> (8804)

me to make haste
<0926> (8763)_:

forbear
<02308> (8798)

thee from [meddling with] God
<0430>_,

who [is] with me, that he destroy
<07843> (8686)

thee not. {the house...: Heb. the house of my war}

Nevertheless Josiah
<02977>

would not turn
<05437> (8689)

his face
<06440>

from him, but disguised
<02664> (8694)

himself, that he might fight
<03898> (8736)

with him, and hearkened
<08085> (8804)

not unto the words
<01697>

of Necho
<05224>

from the mouth
<06310>

of God
<0430>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to fight
<03898> (8736)

in the valley
<01237>

of Megiddo
<04023>_.

And the archers
<03384> (8802)

shot
<03384> (8686)

at king
<04428>

Josiah
<02977>_;

and the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

to his servants
<05650>_,

Have me away
<05674> (8685)_;

for I am sore
<03966>

wounded
<02470> (8717)_.

{wounded: Heb. made sick}
