New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

²⁹ He joined battle with him in the plain of Megiddo, and the commanders came down against King Josiah. ³⁰ The king said to his servants, ‘Take me away from the battle, for I am very weak.’ And immediately his servants took him out of the line of battle. ³¹ He got into his second chariot; and after he was brought back to Jerusalem he died, and was buried in the tomb of his ancestors.
