"And Pharaohnechohª put him in bandsª° at Riblahª in the landª of Hamath,ª that he might not reignª°¹ in Jerusalem;ª and putª°¹ the landª to a tributeª of an hundredª talentsª of silver,ª and a talentª of gold.ª ... And Pharaohnechohª made¹¹ Eliakimª the sonª of Josiahª kingª° in the room¹ of Josiahª his father,ª and turnedª°¹ his nameª to Jehoiakim,ª and tookª° Jehoahazª away:²° and he cameª° to Egypt,ª and diedª° there.¹" {2Kg 23:33-34} + "And Jehoiakimª gaveª° the silverª and the goldª to Pharaoh;ª but¹ he taxedª°¹ the landª to giveª°¹ the moneyª according¹ to the commandmentª of Pharaoh:ª he exactedª°¹ the silverª and the goldª of¹ the peopleª of the land,ª of every oneª according to his taxation,ª to giveª° [it] unto Pharaohnechoh.ª" {2Kg 23:35} + "Afterª all¹ this,¹ when¹ Josiahª had preparedª°¹ the temple,ª Nechoª kingª of Egyptª came upª° to fightª° against Carchemishª by¹ Euphrates:ª and Josiahª went outª° againstª° him. ... His servantsª therefore tookª° him out of¹ that chariot,ª and putª° him in¹ the secondª chariotª that¹ he had; and they brought²°¹ him to Jerusalem,ª and he died,ª° and was buriedª° in [one of] the sepulchresª of his fathers.ª And all¹ Judahª and Jerusalemª mournedª° for¹ Josiah.ª" {2Ch 35:20-24} + "Against Egypt,ª against¹ the armyª of Pharaohnechoª kingª of Egypt,ª which¹ was¹ by¹ the riverª Euphratesª in Carchemish,ª which¹ Nebuchadrezzarª kingª of Babylonª smoteª° in the fourthª yearª of Jehoiakimª the sonª of Josiahª kingª of Judah.ª" {Jer 46:2}
Euphrates:
"And the kingª of Egyptª cameª° not¹ againª° any more¹ out of his land:ª¹ for¹ the kingª of Babylonª had takenª° from the river²¹¹ of Egyptª unto¹ the river²¹¹ Euphratesª all¹ that¹ pertained¹ to the kingª of Egypt.ª" {2Kg 24:7} + "Afterª all¹ this,¹ when¹ Josiahª had preparedª°¹ the temple,ª Nechoª kingª of Egyptª came upª° to fightª° against Carchemishª by¹ Euphrates:ª and Josiahª went outª° againstª° him." {2Ch 35:20} + "Against Egypt,ª against¹ the armyª of Pharaohnechoª kingª of Egypt,ª which¹ was¹ by¹ the riverª Euphratesª in Carchemish,ª which¹ Nebuchadrezzarª kingª of Babylonª smoteª° in the fourthª yearª of Jehoiakimª the sonª of Josiahª kingª of Judah.ª" {Jer 46:2}
Josiah went:
"Afterª all¹ this,¹ when¹ Josiahª had preparedª°¹ the temple,ª Nechoª kingª of Egyptª came upª° to fightª° against Carchemishª by¹ Euphrates:ª and Josiahª went outª° againstª° him. ... And the archersª° shotª° at kingª Josiah;ª and the kingª saidª° to his servants,ª Have me away;ª° for¹ I am sore² wounded.ª°¹" {2Ch 35:20-23}
slew him:
"Behold¹ therefore,¹ I will gatherª° thee unto¹ thy fathers,ª and thou shalt be gatheredª° into¹ thy graveª in peace;ª and thine eyesª shall not¹ seeª° all¹ the evilª which¹ I¹ will bringª° upon¹ this¹ place.ª And they broughtª°¹ the kingª wordª again.²°" {2Kg 22:20} + "There isª a vanityª which¹ is doneª° upon¹ the earth;ª that¹ there be¹ justª [men], unto whom¹¹ it happenethª° according to the workª of the wicked;ª again, there beª wickedª [men], to¹ whom it happenethª°¹ according to the workª of the righteous:ª I saidª° that this alsoª¹¹ [is] vanity.ª" {Ecc 8:14} + "For¹¹ all¹ this¹ I consideredª° in¹ my heartª even to declareª°¹ all¹ this,¹ that¹ the righteous,ª and the wise,ª and their works,ª [are] in the handª of God:ª no¹ manª knowethª° eitherª loveª or¹ hatredª [by] all¹ [that is] beforeª them. ... All¹ [things come] alike¹ to all:¹ [there is] oneª eventª to the righteous,ª and to the wicked;ª to the goodª and to the clean,ª and to the unclean;ª to him that sacrificeth,ª° and to him that² sacrificethª°¹ not:¹ as [is] the good,ª so [is] the sinner;ª° [and] he that sweareth,ª° as¹ [he] that feareth²¹ an oath.ª" {Ecc 9:1-2} + "The righteousª perisheth,ª° and no¹ manª layethª° [it] to¹ heart:ª and mercifulª men²¹ [are] taken away,ª° none¹ consideringª° that¹ the righteousª is taken awayª° fromª¹ the evilª [to come]. ...

Megiddo:
Megiddo, called Μαγδολον, Magdolum, by Herodotus, was situated in the tribe of Manasseh, west of Jordan, in the valley of Jezreel, and not far fron Hadad-Rimmon, or Maximianopolis. This shews that Josiah reigned over the country formerly possessed by the ten tribes; and it is also probable, that Nechoh had landed his troops at or near Cesarea of Palestine. "But when Ahaziahª the kingª of Judahª sawª° [this], he fledª° by the wayª of the gardenª house.ª And Jehuª followedª° afterª him, and said,ª° Smiteª° him also¹ in¹ the chariot.ª [And they did so] at the going upª to Gur,ª which¹ [is] by¹ Ibleam.ª And he fledª° to Megiddo,ª and diedª° there.¹" {2Kg 9:27} + "And Manassehª had¹ in Issacharª and in Asherª Bethsheanª and her towns,ª and Ibleamª and her towns,ª and the inhabitantsª° of Dorª and her towns,ª and the inhabitantsª° of Endorª and her towns,ª and the inhabitantsª° of Taanachª and her towns,ª and the inhabitantsª° of Megiddoª and her towns,ª [even] threeª countries.ª" {Jsh 17:11} + "Neither¹ did Manassehª drive outª°¹ [the inhabitants of] Bethsheanª and her towns,ª nor Taanachª and her towns,ª nor the inhabitantsª° of Dorª and her towns,ª nor the inhabitantsª° of Ibleamª and her towns,ª nor the inhabitantsª° of Megiddoª and her towns:ª but the Canaanitesª wouldª° dwellª° in that¹ land.ª" {Jdg 1:27} + "The kingsª cameª° [and] fought,ª° then¹ foughtª° the kingsª of Canaanª in Taanachª by¹ the watersª of Megiddo;ª they tookª° no¹ gain²¹ of money.ª" {Jdg 5:19} + "Baanaª the sonª of Ahilud;ª [to him pertained] Taanachª and Megiddo,ª and all¹ Bethshean,ª which¹ [is] byª Zartanahª beneath¹¹ Jezreel,ª from Bethsheanª¹ to¹ Abelmeholah,ª [even] unto¹ [the place that is] beyondª¹ Jokneam:ª" {1Kg 4:12} + "In that¹ dayª shall there be a greatª° mourningª in Jerusalem,ª as the mourningª of Hadadrimmonª in the valleyª of Megiddon.ª" {Zch 12:11}, Megiddon, "Andª he gathered²° them² togetherª°¹ intoª a placeª calledª° in the Hebrew tongueª Armageddon.ª" {Rev 16:16}, Armageddon

"Then¹ Amaziahª sentª° messengersª to¹ Jehoash,ª the sonª of Jehoahazª sonª of Jehu,ª kingª of Israel,ª saying,ª° Come,²°¹ let us look²° one another¹ in the face.ª" {2Kg 14:8} + "But Amaziahª would not¹ hear.ª° Therefore Jehoashª kingª of Israelª went up;ª° and he¹ and Amaziahª kingª of Judahª looked²° one another¹ in the faceª at Bethshemesh,ª which¹ [belongeth] to Judah.ª" {2Kg 14:11}
