Josiah's Death
28As for the rest of Josiah's acts and everything he did, are they not written in the annals of the kings of Judah?
29In his days, Pharaoh Neco, king of Egypt, went to join the king of Assyria for war at the Euphrates River.[] King Josiah went to meet Neco in battle, but Neco killed King Josiah at Megiddo when he faced him. 30His servants transported his body from Megiddo to Jerusalem in a chariot, and they buried him in his own tomb. Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz son of Josiah and anointed him. They made him king in his father's place.
