22 However, Josiah would not turn [a]away from him, but (A)disguised himself in order to make war with him; nor did he listen to the words of Neco (B)from the mouth of God, but came to make war on the plain of (C)Megiddo. 23 Then the archers shot King Josiah, and the king said to his servants, “Take me away, for I am badly wounded.” 24 So his servants took him out of the chariot and drove him in the second chariot which he had, and brought him to Jerusalem [b]where he died, and he was buried in the tombs of his fathers. (D)And all Judah and Jerusalem mourned for Josiah.

22 Nevertheless Josiah would not turn his face from him, but (A)disguised himself so that he might fight with him, and did not heed the words of Necho from the mouth of God. So he came to fight in the Valley of Megiddo.
23 And the archers shot King Josiah; and the king said to his servants, “Take me away, for I am severely wounded.” 24 (B)His servants therefore took him out of that chariot and put him in the second chariot that he had, and they brought him to Jerusalem. So he died, and was buried in one of the tombs of his fathers. And (C)all Judah and Jerusalem mourned for Josiah.

22 Josiah, however, would not turn away from him, but disguised(A) himself to engage him in battle. He would not listen to what Necho had said at God’s command but went to fight him on the plain of Megiddo.
23 Archers(B) shot King Josiah, and he told his officers, “Take me away; I am badly wounded.” 24 So they took him out of his chariot, put him in his other chariot and brought him to Jerusalem, where he died. He was buried in the tombs of his ancestors, and all Judah and Jerusalem mourned for him.
