2 Kings 23:29-30

2 Kings 23:29-30 CSB

During his reign, Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt  marched up to help the king of Assyria at the Euphrates River. King Josiah went to confront him, and at Megiddo  when Neco saw him he killed him. From Megiddo his servants carried his dead body in a chariot, brought him into Jerusalem, and buried him in his own tomb.  Then the common people  took Jehoahaz son of Josiah, anointed him, and made him king in place of his father.
