Contextual Overview

20 After all this, when Josiah had prepared the house, Necho the king of Egypt came up to fight against Carchemish by the Euphrates; and Josiah went out to meet him. 21 And he sent messengers to him, saying, What do I have to do with you, O king of Judah? I am not coming against you today, but toward the house with which I have war; and Godsaid for me to hasten; stop yourself fromopposing God, who is with me, and He shall not destroy you. 22 Josiah would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself to fight against him, and did not listen to the words of Necho from the mouth of God; and came to fight in the valley of Megiddo. 23 And the archers shot at King Josiah. And the king said to his servants, Carry me out, for I am severely wounded. 24 And his servants carried him out from the chariot, and caused him to ride in a second chariot of his, and brought him to Jerusalem. And he died and was buried in the graves of his fathers. And all Judah and Jerusalem were mourning for Josiah. 25 And Jeremiah lamented for Josiah; and all the singers and the songstresses speak in their lamentations of Josiah to this day, and gave them as a statute in Israel; and behold, they are written in the Lamentations. 26 And the rest of the acts of Josiah, and his godly deeds, are according as it is written in the Law of Jehovah. 27 And his acts, the first and the last, behold, they are written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah.
