2 Kings 23:25-37

23:25

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.

23:26

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}

23:27

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.

23:28

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Josiah
<02977>_,

and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,
