2 Kings 23

1 Josiah causeth the book to be read in a solemn assembly. 3 He reneweth the Covenant of the LORD. 4 He destroyeth idolatry. 15 He burneth dead men's bones upon the altar of Beth-el, as was foreprophesied. 21 He keepeth a most solemn Passover. 24 He putteth away witches and all abomination. 26 God's final wrath against Judah. 29 Josiah, provoking Pharaoh-nechoh, is slain at Megiddo. 31 Jehoahaz, succeeding him, is imprisoned by Pharaoh-nechoh, who maketh Jehoiakim king. 36 Jehoiakim's wicked reign.
