2 Kings 23:16-37

And as Josiah
<02977>
turned
<06437> (8799)
himself, he spied
<07200> (8799)
the sepulchres
<06913>
that [were] there in the mount
<02022>_,
and sent
<07971> (8799)_,
and took
<03947> (8799)
the bones
<06106>
out of the sepulchres
<06913>_,
and burned
<08313> (8799)
[them] upon the altar
<04196>_,
and polluted
<02930> (8762)
it, according to the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
which the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
proclaimed
<07121> (8804)_,
who proclaimed
<07121> (8804)
these words
<01697>_.
Then he said
<0559> (8799)_,
What title
<06725>
[is] that
<01975>
that I see
<07200> (8802)_?
And the men
<0582>
of the city
<05892>
told
<0559> (8799)
him, [It is] the sepulchre
<06913>
of the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
which came
<0935> (8804)
from Judah
<03063>_,
and proclaimed
<07121> (8799)
these things
<01697>
that thou hast done
<06213> (8804)
against the altar
<04196>
of Bethel
<01008>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Let him alone
<03240> (8685)_;
let no man
<0376>
move
<05128> (8686)
his bones
<06106>_.
So they let his bones
<06106>
alone
<04422> (8762)_,
with the bones
<06106>
of the prophet
<05030>
that came out
<0935> (8804)
of Samaria
<08111>_.
{bones alone: Heb. bones to escape}
And all the houses
<01004>
also of the high places
<01116>
that [were] in the cities
<05892>
of Samaria
<08111>_,
which the kings
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
had made
<06213> (8804)
to provoke [the LORD] to anger
<03707> (8687)_,
Josiah
<02977>
took away
<05493> (8689)_,
and did
<06213> (8799)
to them according to all the acts
<04639>
that he had done
<06213> (8804)
in Bethel
<01008>_.
And he slew
<02076> (8799)
all the priests
<03548>
of the high places
<01116>
that [were] there upon the altars
<04196>_,
and burned
<08313> (8799)
men's
<0120>
bones
<06106>
upon them, and returned
<07725> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
{slew: or, sacrificed}
And the king
<04428>
commanded
<06680> (8762)
all the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Keep
<06213> (8798)
the passover
<06453>
unto the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_,
as [it is] written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of this covenant
<01285>_.
Surely there was not holden
<06213> (8738)
such a passover
<06453>
from the days
<03117>
of the judges
<08199> (8802)
that judged
<08199> (8804)
Israel
<03478>_,
nor in all the days
<03117>
of the kings
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
nor of the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_;
But in the eighteenth
<08083> <06240>
year
<08141>
of king
<04428>
Josiah
<02977>_,
[wherein] this passover
<06453>
was holden
<06213> (8738)
to the LORD
<03068>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
Moreover the [workers with] familiar spirits
<0178>_,
and the wizards
<03049>_,
and the images
<08655>_,
and the idols
<01544>_,
and all the abominations
<08251>
that were spied
<07200> (8738)
in the land
<0776>
of Judah
<03063>
and in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
did Josiah
<02977>
put away
<01197> (8765)_,
that he might perform
<06965> (8687)
the words
<01697>
of the law
<08451>
which were written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
that Hilkiah
<02518>
the priest
<03548>
found
<04672> (8804)
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
{images: or, teraphim}
And like unto him was there no king
<04428>
before
<06440>
him, that turned
<07725> (8804)
to the LORD
<03068>
with all his heart
<03824>_,
and with all his soul
<05315>_,
and with all his might
<03966>_,
according to all the law
<08451>
of Moses
<04872>_;
neither after
<0310>
him arose
<06965> (8804)
there [any] like him.
Notwithstanding the LORD
<03068>
turned
<07725> (8804)
not from the fierceness
<02740>
of his great
<01419>
wrath
<0639>_,
wherewith his anger
<0639>
was kindled
<02734> (8804)
against Judah
<03063>_,
because of all the provocations
<03708>
that Manasseh
<04519>
had provoked
<03707> (8689)
him withal. {provocations: Heb. angers}
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
I will remove
<05493> (8686)
Judah
<03063>
also out of my sight
<06440>_,
as I have removed
<05493> (8689)
Israel
<03478>_,
and will cast off
<03988> (8804)
this city
<05892>
Jerusalem
<03389>
which I have chosen
<0977> (8804)_,
and the house
<01004>
of which I said
<0559> (8804)_,
My name
<08034>
shall be there.
Now the rest
<03499>
of the acts
<01697>
of Josiah
<02977>_,
and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,
[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>
of the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_?
In his days
<03117>
Pharaohnechoh
<06549>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>
went up
<05927> (8804)
against the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>
to the river
<05104>
Euphrates
<06578>_:
and king
<04428>
Josiah
<02977>
went
<03212> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
him; and he slew
<04191> (8686)
him at Megiddo
<04023>_,
when he had seen
<07200> (8800)
him.
And his servants
<05650>
carried him in a chariot
<07392> (8686)
dead
<04191> (8801)
from Megiddo
<04023>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
him to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and buried
<06912> (8799)
him in his own sepulchre
<06900>_.
And the people
<05971>
of the land
<0776>
took
<03947> (8799)
Jehoahaz
<03059>
the son
<01121>
of Josiah
<02977>_,
and anointed
<04886> (8799)
him, and made him king
<04427> (8686)
in his father's
<01>
stead.
Jehoahaz
<03059>
[was] twenty
<06242>
and three
<07969>

<08141>

<01121>
when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_;
and he reigned
<04427> (8804)
three
<07969>
months
<02320>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And his mother's
<0517>
name
<08034>
[was] Hamutal
<02537>_,
the daughter
<01323>
of Jeremiah
<03414>
of Libnah
<03841>_.
{Jehoahaz: also called, Shallum}
And he did
<06213> (8799)
[that which was] evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
according to all that his fathers
<01>
had done
<06213> (8804)_.
And Pharaohnechoh
<06549>
put him in bands
<0631> (8799)
at Riblah
<07247>
in the land
<0776>
of Hamath
<02574>_,
that he might not reign
<04427> (8800)
in Jerusalem
<03389>_;
and put
<05414> (8799)
the land
<0776>
to a tribute
<06066>
of an hundred
<03967>
talents
<03603>
of silver
<03701>_,
and a talent
<03603>
of gold
<02091>_.
{that...: or, because he reigned} {put the...: Heb. set a fine upon the land}
And Pharaohnechoh
<06549>
made Eliakim
<0471>
the son
<01121>
of Josiah
<02977>
king
<04427> (8686)
in the room of Josiah
<02977>
his father
<01>_,
and turned
<05437> (8686)
his name
<08034>
to Jehoiakim
<03079>_,
and took
<03947> (0)
Jehoahaz
<03059>
away
<03947> (8804)_:
and he came
<0935> (8799)
to Egypt
<04714>_,
and died
<04191> (8799)
there.
And Jehoiakim
<03079>
gave
<05414> (8804)
the silver
<03701>
and the gold
<02091>
to Pharaoh
<06547>_;
but he taxed
<06186> (8689)
the land
<0776>
to give
<05414> (8800)
the money
<03701>
according to the commandment
<06310>
of Pharaoh
<06547>_:
he exacted
<05065> (8804)
the silver
<03701>
and the gold
<02091>
of the people
<05971>
of the land
<0776>_,
of every one
<0376>
according to his taxation
<06187>_,
to give
<05414> (8800)
[it] unto Pharaohnechoh

old
<01121>
when he began to reign

<07451>
in the sight

of the LORD
<03068>_,
according to all that his fathers
