New Century Version

Josiah King of Judah

22 Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he ruled thirty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jedidah daughter of Adaiah, who was from Bozkath. ² Josiah did what the Lord said was right. He lived as his ancestor David had lived, and he did not stop doing what was right.
