14:035:022 Nevertheless Josiah would not turn his face from him, but
disguised himself, that he might fight with him, and hearkened
not unto the words of Necho from the mouth of God, and came to
fight in the valley of Megiddo.
14:035:023 And the archers shot at king Josiah; and the king said to his
servants, Have me away; for I am sore wounded.
14:035:024 His servants therefore took him out of that chariot, and put
him in the second chariot that he had; and they brought him to
Jerusalem, and he died, and was buried in one of the
sepulchres of his fathers. And all Judah and Jerusalem mourned
for Josiah.
14:035:025 And Jeremiah lamented for Josiah: and all the singing men and
the singing women spake of Josiah in their lamentations to
this day, and made them an ordinance in Israel: and, behold,
they are written in the lamentations.
14:035:026 Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and his goodness,
according to that which was written in the law of the LORD,
14:035:027 And his deeds, first and last, behold, they are written in the
book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
14:036:001 Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah,
and made him king in his father's stead in Jerusalem.
14:036:002 Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to
reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.
14:036:003 And the king of Egypt put him down at Jerusalem, and condemned
the land in an hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
14:036:004 And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah
and Jerusalem, and turned his name to Jehoiakim. And Necho
took Jehoahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
14:036:005 Jehoiakim was twenty and five years old when he began to
reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did
that which was evil in the sight of the LORD his God.
14:036:006 Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound
him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
14:036:007 Nebuchadnezzar also carried of the vessels of the house of the
LORD to Babylon, and put them in his temple at Babylon.
14:036:008 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and his abominations
which he did, and that which was found in him, behold, they
are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah: and
Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.
14:036:009 Jehoiachin was eight years old when he began to reign, and he
reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem: and he did
that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
