And his servantsª carried¹ him in a chariot² ° deadª ° from Megiddo,ª ¹ and broughtª ° him to Jerusalem,ª and buriedª ° him in his own sepulchre.ª And the peopleª of the landª tookª °¹ Jehoahazª the sonª of Josiah,ª and anointedª ° him, and made him kingª °¹ in his father's² stead.¹ ¹" {2Kg 23:29-30} + "Markª ° the perfectª [man], and beholdª ° the upright:ª for¹ the endª of [that] manª [is] peace.ª" {Psa 37:37} + "The righteousª perisheth,ª ° and no¹ manª layethª ° [it] to¹ heart:ª and mercifulª men² ¹ [are] taken away,ª ° none¹ consideringª ° that¹ the righteousª is taken awayª ° fromª ¹ the evilª [to come]. ...
