out

sent
ambassadors
to him,
saying

king

Judah

day

house
wherewith I have
war
: for
God
commanded
me to make
haste
:
forbear
thee from meddling with
God
, who is with me, that he
destroy
thee not.
strkjv@2Chronicles:35:22
@ 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
.
strkjv@2Chronicles:35:23
@ And the
archers
shot
at

Josiah

away

sore
wounded

strkjv@2Chronicles:35:24
@ His
servants
therefore
took
him out of that

buried

mourned
