V.1 And the king 4428 sent, 7971-4 and they gathered 622-4 unto him all the elders 2205 of Judah 3063 and of Jerusalem. 3389

23:2 And the king 4428 went up 5927-4 into the house 1004 of the LORD, 3068 and all the men 376 of Judah 3063 and all the inhabitants 3427-6 of Jerusalem 3389 with him, and the priests, 3548 and the prophets, 5030 and all the people, 5971 both small 6996 and great: 1419 and he read 7121-4 in their ears 241 all the words 1697 of the book 5612 of the covenant 1285 which was found 4672-12 in the house 1004 of the LORD. 3068

23:3 And the king 4428 stood 5975-4 by a pillar, 5982 and made 3772-4 a covenant 1285 before 6440 the LORD, 3068 to walk 3212-2 after 310 the LORD, 3068 and to keep 8104-2 his commandments 4687 and his testimonies 5715 and his statutes 2708 with all [their] heart 3820 and all [their] soul, 5315 to perform 6965-53 the words 1697 of this covenant 1285 that were written 3789-7 in this book. 5612 And all the people 5971 stood 5975-4 to the covenant. 1285

23:4 And the king 4428 commanded 6680-17 Hilkiah 2518 the high 1419 priest, 3548 and the priests 3548 of the second order, 4932 and the keepers 8104-6 of the door, 5592 to bring forth 3318-53 out of the temple 1964 of the LORD 3068 all the vessels 3627 that were made 6213-7 for Baal, 1168 and for the grove, 842 and for all the host 6635 of heaven: 8064 and he burned 8313-4 them without 2351 Jerusalem 3389 in the fields 7709 of Kidron, 6939 and carried 5375-1 the ashes 6083 of them unto Bethel. 1008

23:5 And he put down 7673-52 the idolatrous priests, 3649 whom the kings 4428 of Judah 3063 had ordained 5414-1 to burn incense 6999-17 in the high places 1116 in the cities 5892 of Judah, 3063 and in the places round about 4524 Jerusalem; 3389 them also that burned incense 6999-18 unto Baal, 1168 to the sun, 8121 and to the moon, 3394 and to the planets, 4208 and to all the host 6635 of heaven. 8064

23:6 And he brought out 3318-55 the grove 842 from the house 1004 of the LORD, 3068 without 2351 Jerusalem, 3389 unto the brook 5158 Kidron, 6939 and burned 8313-4 it at the brook 5158 Kidron, 6939 and stamped [it] small 1854-55 to powder, 6083 and cast 7993-55 the powder 6083 thereof upon the graves 6913 of the children 1121 of the people. 5971

23:7 And he brake down 5422-4 the houses 1004 of the sodomites, 6945 that [were] by the house 1004 of the LORD, 3068 where the women 802 wove 707-6 hangings 1004 for the grove. 842

23:8 And he brought 935-55 all the priests 3548 out of the cities 5892 of Judah, 3063 and defiled 2930-17 the high places 1116 where the priests 3548 had burned incense, 6999- 14 from Geba 1387 to Beersheba, 884 and brake down 5422-1 the high places 1116 of the gates 8179 that [were] in the entering in 6607 of the gate 8179 of Joshua 3091 the governor 8269 of the city, 5892 which [were] on a man's 376 left hand 8040 at the gate 8179 of the city. 5892

23:9 Nevertheless the priests 3548 of the high places 1116 came not up 5927-4 to the altar 4196 of the LORD 3068 in Jerusalem, 3389 but they did eat 398-1 of the unleavened bread 4682 among 8432 their brethren. 251

23:10 And he defiled 2930-14 Topheth, 8612 which [is] in the valley 1516 of the children 1121|1121-k of Hinnom, 2011 that no man 376 might make his son 1121 or his daughter 1323 to pass 5674-53 through the fire 784 to Molech. 4432

23:11 And he took away 7673-55 the horses 5483 that the kings 4428 of Judah 3063 had given 5414-1 to the sun, 8121 at the entering in 935-2 of the house 1004 of the LORD, 3068 by the chamber 3957 of Nathanmelech 5419 the chamberlain, 5631 which [was] in the suburbs, 6503 and burned 8313-1 the chariots 4818 of the sun 8121 with fire. 784

23:12 And the altars 4196 that [were] on the top 1406 of the upper chamber 5944 of Ahaz, 271 which the kings 4428 of Judah 3063 had made, 6213-1 and the altars 4196 which Manasseh 4519 had made 6213-1 in the two 8147 courts 2691 of the house 1004 of the LORD, 3068 did the king 4428 beat down, 5422-1 and brake [them] down 7323-4 from thence, and cast 7993-52 the dust 6083 of them into the brook 5158 Kidron. 6939

23:13 And the high places 1116 that [were] before 6440 Jerusalem, 3389 which [were] on the right hand 3225 of the mount 2022 of corruption, 4889 which Solomon 8010 the king 4428 of Israel 3478 had builded 1129-1 for Ashtoreth 6253 the abomination 8251 of the Zidonians, 6722 and for Chemosh 3645 the abomination 8251 of the Moabites, 4124 and for Milcom 4445 the abomination 8441 of the children 1121 of Ammon, 5983 did the king 4428 defile. 2930-14

23:14 And he brake 7665-14 in pieces the images, 4676 and cut down 3772-4 the groves, 842 and filled 4390-17 their places 4725 with the bones 6106 of men. 120

23:15 Moreover the altar 4196 that [was] at Bethel, 1008 [and] the high place 1116 which Jeroboam 3379 the son 1121 of Nebat, 5028 who made Israel 3478 to sin, 2398-52 had made, 6213-1 both that altar 4196 and the high place 1116 he brake down, 5422-1 and burned 8313-4 the high place, 1116 [and] stamped [it] small 1854-52 to powder, 6083 and burned 8313-1 the grove. 842

23:16 And as Josiah 2977 turned 6437-4 himself, he spied 7200-4 the sepulchres 6913 that [were] there in the mount, 2022 and sent, 7971-4 and took 3947-4 the bones 6106 out of the sepulchres, 6913 and burned 8313-4 [them] upon the altar, 4196 and polluted 2930-17 it, according to the word 1697 of the LORD 3068 which the man 376 of God 430 proclaimed, 7121-1 who proclaimed 7121-1 these words. 1697

23:17 Then he said, 559-4 What title 6725 [is] that 1975 that I see? 7200-6 And the men 582 of the city 5892 told 559-4 him, [It is] the sepulchre 6913 of the man 376 of God, 430 which came 935-1 from Judah, 3063 and proclaimed 7121-4 these things 1697 that thou hast done 6213-1 against the altar 4196 of Bethel. 1008

23:18 And he said, 559-4 Let him alone; 3240-54 let no man 376 move 5128-55 his bones. 6106 So they let his bones 6106 alone, 4422-17 with the bones 6106 of the prophet 5030 that came 935-1 out of Samaria. 8111

23:19 And all the houses 1004 also of the high places 1116 that [were] in the cities 5892 of Samaria, 8111 which the kings 4428 of Israel 3478 had made 6213-1 to provoke [the LORD] to anger, 3707-53 Josiah 2977 took away, 5493-52 and did 6213-4 to them according to all the acts 4639 that he had done 6213-1 in Bethel. 1008

23:20 And he slew 2076-4 all the priests 3548 of the high places 1116 that [were] there upon the altars, 4196 and burned 8313-4 men's 120 bones 6106 upon them, and returned 7725-4 to Jerusalem. 3389

23:21 And the king 4428 commanded 6680-17 all the people, 5971 saying, 559-2 Keep 6213-3 the passover 6453 unto the LORD 3068 your God, 430 as [it is] written 3789-7 in the book 5612 of this covenant. 1285

23:22 Surely there was not holden 6213-8 such a passover 6453 from the days 3117 of the judges 8199-6 that judged 8199-1 Israel, 3478 nor in all the days 3117 of the kings 4428 of Israel, 3478 nor of the kings 4428 of Judah; 3063

23:23 But in the eighteenth 8083 6240 year 8141 of king 4428 Josiah, 2977 [wherein] this passover 6453 was holden 6213-8 to the LORD 3068 in Jerusalem. 3389

23:24 Moreover the [workers with] familiar spirits, 178 and the wizards, 3049 and the images, 8655 and the idols, 1544 and all the abominations 8251 that were spied 7200-8 in the land 776 of Judah 3063 and in Jerusalem, 3389 did Josiah 2977 put away, 1197-14 that he might perform 6965-53 the words 1697 of the law 8451 which were written 3789-7 in the book 5612 that Hilkiah 2518 the priest 3548 found 4672-1 in the house 1004 of the LORD. 3068

23:25 And like unto him was there no king 4428 before 6440 him, that turned 7725-1 to the LORD 3068 with all his heart, 3824 and with all his soul, 5315 and with all his might, 3966 according to all the law 8451 of Moses; 4872 neither after 310 him arose 6965-1 there [any] like him.

23:26 Notwithstanding the LORD 3068 turned 7725-1 not from the fierceness 2740 of his great 1419 wrath, 639 wherewith his anger 639 was kindled 2734-1 against Judah, 3063 because of all the provocations 3708 that Manasseh 4519 had provoked 3707-52 him withal.

23:27 And the LORD 3068 said, 559-4 I will remove 5493-55 Judah 3063 also out of my sight, 6440 as I have removed 5493- 52 Israel, 3478 and will cast off 3988-1 this city 5892 Jerusalem 3389 which I have chosen, 977-1 and the house 1004 of which I said, 559-1 My name 8034 shall be there.

23:28 Now the rest 3499 of the acts 1697 of Josiah, 2977 and all that he did, 6213-1 [are] they not written 3789-7 in the book 5612 of the chronicles 1697 3117 of the kings 4428 of Judah? 3063

23:29 In his days 3117 Pharaohnechoh 6549 king 4428 of Egypt 4714 went up 5927-1 against the king 4428 of Assyria 804 to the river 5104 Euphrates: 6578 and king 4428 Josiah 2977 went 3212-4 against 7125-2 him; and he slew 4191-55 him at Megiddo, 4023 when he had seen 7200-2 him.

23:30 And his servants 5650 carried 7392-55 him in a chariot dead 4191-5 from Megiddo, 4023 and brought 935-55 him to Jerusalem, 3389 and buried 6912-4 him in his own sepulchre. 6900 And the people 5971 of the land 776 took 3947-4 Jehoahaz 3059 the son 1121 of Josiah, 2977 and anointed 4886-4 him, and made him king 4427-55 in his father's 1 stead.

23:31 Jehoahaz 3059 [was] twenty 6242 and three 7969 years 8141 old 1121 when he began to reign; 4427-2 and he reigned 4427-1 three 7969 months 2320 in Jerusalem. 3389 And his mother's 517 name 8034 [was] Hamutal, 2537 the daughter 1323 of Jeremiah 3414 of Libnah. 3841

23:32 And he did 6213-4 [that which was] evil 7451 in the sight 5869 of the LORD, 3068 according to all that his fathers 1 had done. 6213-1

23:33 And Pharaohnechoh 6549 put him in bands 631-4 at Riblah 7247 in the land 776 of Hamath, 2574 that he might not reign 4427-2 in Jerusalem; 3389 and put 5414-4 the land 776 to a tribute 6066 of an hundred 3967 talents 3603 of silver, 3701 and a talent 3603 of gold. 2091

23:34 And Pharaohnechoh 6549 made Eliakim 471 the son 1121 of Josiah 2977 king 4427-55 in the room of Josiah 2977 his father, 1 and turned 5437-55 his name 8034 to Jehoiakim, 3079 and took Jehoahaz 3059 away: 3947-1 and he came 935-4 to Egypt, 4714 and died 4191-4 there.

23:35 And Jehoiakim 3079 gave 5414-1 the silver 3701 and the gold 2091 to Pharaoh; 6547 but he taxed 6186-52 the land 776 to give 5414-2 the money 3701 according to the commandment 6310 of Pharaoh: 6547 he exacted 5065-1 the silver 3701 and the gold 2091 of the people 5971 of the land, 776 of every one 376 according to his taxation, 6187 to give 5414-2 [it] unto Pharaohnechoh. 6549

23:36 Jehoiakim 3079 [was] twenty 6242 and five 2568 years 8141 old 1121 when he began to reign; 4427-2 and he reigned 4427-1 eleven 259 6240 years 8141 in Jerusalem. 3389 And his mother's 517 name 8034 [was] Zebudah, 2080 the daughter 1323 of Pedaiah 6305 of Rumah. 7316

23:37 And he did 6213-4 [that which was] evil 7451 in the sight 5869 of the LORD, 3068 according to all that his fathers 1 had done. 6213-1
