2 Kings 23:23 (YLT) Young's Literal Translation

1 And the king sendeth, and they gather unto him all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem,
2 and the king goeth up to the house of Jehovah, and every man of Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, from small unto great, and he readeth in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant that is found in the house of Jehovah.
3 And the king standeth by the pillar, and maketh the covenant before Jehovah, to walk after Jehovah, and to keep His commands, and His testimonies, and His statutes, with all the heart, and with all the soul, to establish the words of this covenant that are written on this book, and all the people stand in the covenant.
4 And the king commandeth Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the threshold, to bring out from the temple of Jehovah all the vessels that are made for Baal, and for the shrine, and for all the host of the heavens, and he burneth them at the outside of Jerusalem, in the fields of Kidron, and hath borne their ashes to Beth-El.
5 And he hath caused to cease the idolatrous priests whom the kings of Judah have appointed, (and they make perfume in high places, in cities of Judah and suburbs of Jerusalem,) and those making perfume to Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of the heavens.
6 And he bringeth out the shrine from the house of Jehovah to the outside of Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burneth it at the brook Kidron, and beateth it small to dust, and casteth its dust on the grave of the sons of the people.
7 And he breaketh down the houses of the whoremongers that are in the house of Jehovah, where the women are weaving houses for the shrine.
8 And he bringeth in all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defileth the high places where the priests have made perfume, from Geba unto Beer-Sheba, and hath broken down the high places of the gates that are at the opening of the gate of Joshua, head of the city, that is on a man's left hand at the gate of the city;
9 only, the priests of the high places come not up unto the altar of Jehovah in Jerusalem, but they have eaten unleavened things in the midst of their brethren.
10 And he hath defiled Topheth, that is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, so that no man doth cause his son and his daughter to pass over through fire to Molech.
11 And he causeth to cease the horses that the kings of Judah have given to the sun from the entering in of the house of Jehovah, by the chamber of Nathan-Melech the eunuch, that is in the suburbs, and the chariots of the sun he hath burnt with fire.
12 And the altars that are on the top of the upper chamber of Ahaz, that the kings of Judah made, and the altars that Manasseh made in the two courts of the house of Jehovah, hath the king broken down, and removeth thence, and hath cast their dust unto the brook Kidron.
13 And the high places that are on the front of Jerusalem, that are on the right of the mount of corruption, that Solomon king of Israel had built to Ashtoreth abomination of the Zidonians, and Chemosh abomination of Moab, and to Milcom abomination of the sons of Ammon, hath the king defiled.
14 And he hath broken in pieces the standing-pillars, and cutteth down the shrines, and filleth their place with bones of men;
15 and also the altar that is in Beth-El, the high place that Jeroboam son of Nebat made, by which he made Israel sin, both that altar and the high place he hath broken down, and doth burn the high place -- he hath beat it small to dust, and hath burnt the shrine.
16 And Josiah turneth, and seeth the graves that are there in the mount, and sendeth and taketh the bones out of the graves, and burneth them on the altar, and defileth it, according to the word of Jehovah that the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these things.
17 And he saith, `What is this sign that I see?` and the men of the city say unto him, `The grave of the man of God who hath come from Judah, and proclaimeth these things that thou hast done concerning the altar of Beth-El.`
18 And he saith, `Let him alone, let no man touch his bones;` and they let his bones escape, with the bones of the prophet who came out of Samaria.
19 And also all the houses of the high places that are in the cities of Samaria, that the kings of Israel made to provoke to anger, hath Josiah turned aside, and doth to them according to all the deeds that he did in Beth-El.
20 And he slayeth all the priests of the high places who are there by the altars, and burneth the bones of man upon them, and turneth back to Jerusalem.
21 And the king commandeth the whole of the people, saying, `Make ye a passover to Jehovah your God, as it is written on this book of the covenant.`
22 Surely there hath not been made like this passover from the days of the judges who judged Israel, even all the days of the kings of Israel, and of the kings of Judah;
23 but in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, hath this passover been made to Jehovah in Jerusalem.
24 And also, those having familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the teraphim, and the idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah, and in Jerusalem, hath Josiah put away, in order to establish the words of the law that are written on the book that Hilkiah the priest hath found in the house of Jehovah.
25 And like him there hath not been before him a king who turned back unto Jehovah with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses, and after him there hath none risen like him.
26 Only, Jehovah hath not turned back from the fierceness of His great anger with which His anger burned against Judah, because of all the provocations with which Manasseh provoked him,
27 and Jehovah saith, `Also Judah I turn aside from my presence, as I turned Israel aside, and I have rejected this city that I have chosen -- Jerusalem, and the house of which I said, My name is there.`
28 And the rest of the matters of Josiah, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?
29 In his days hath Pharaoh-Nechoh king of Egypt come up against the king of Asshur, by the river Phrat, and king Josiah goeth out to meet him, and he putteth him to death in Megiddo, when he seeth him.
30 And his servants cause him to ride dying from Megiddo, and bring him in to Jerusalem, and bury him in his own grave, and the people of the land take Jehoahaz son of Josiah, and anoint him, and cause him to reign instead of his father.
31 A son of twenty and three years is Jehoahaz in his reigning, and three months he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother is Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah,
32 and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that his fathers did,
33 and Pharaoh-Nechoh bindeth him in Riblah, in the land of Hamath, from reigning in Jerusalem, and he putteth a fine on the land -- a hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
34 And Pharaoh-Nechoh causeth Eliakim son of Josiah to reign instead of Josiah his father, and turneth his name to Jehoiakim, and Jehoahaz he hath taken away, and he cometh in to Egypt, and dieth there.
35 And the silver and the gold hath Jehoiakim given to Pharaoh; only he valued the land to give the silver by the command of Pharaoh; from each, according to his valuation, he exacted the silver and the gold, from the people of the land, to give to Pharaoh-Nechoh.
36 A son of twenty and five years is Jehoiakim in his reigning, and eleven years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother is Zebudah daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah,
37 and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that his fathers did.

3 And the king H4428 D-NMS stood H5975 W-VQY3MS by H5921 PREP a pillar H5982 , and made H3772 a covenant H1285 D-NFS before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 EDS , to walk H1980 L-VQFC after H310 ADV the LORD H3068 EDS , and to keep H8104 his commandments H4687 and his testimonies H5715 and his statutes H2708 with all H3605 NMS their heart H3820 NMS and all H3605 NMS their soul H5315 GFS , to perform H6965 the words H1697 CMP of this H2063 D-DFS covenant H1285 D-NFS that were written H3789 in H5921 PREP this H2088 D-PMS book H5612 . And all H3605 NMS the people H5971 stood H5975 W-VQY3MS to the covenant H1285 .
4 And the king H4428 D-NMS commanded H6680 W-VPY3MS Hilkiah H2518 the high H1419 D-AMS priest H3548 , and the priests H3548 of the second order H4932 , and the keepers H8104 of the door H5592 , to bring forth H3318 out of the temple H1964 of the LORD H3068 EDS all H3605 NMS the vessels H3627 D-NMP that were made H6213 for Baal H1168 , and for the grove H842 , and for all H3605 NMS the host H6635 of heaven H8064 D-AMP : and he burned H8313 them without H2351 Jerusalem H3389 in the fields H7709 of Kidron H6939 , and carried H5375 the ashes H6083 of them unto Bethel H1008 LFS .
5 And he put down H7673 the idolatrous priests H3649 , whom H834 RPRO the kings H4428 CMP of Judah H3063 had ordained H5414 to burn incense H6999 in the high places H1116 in the cities H5892 B-CFP of Judah H3063 , and in the places round about H4524 Jerusalem H3389 ; them also that burned incense H6999 unto Baal H1168 , to the sun H8121 , and to the moon H3394 , and to the planets H4208 , and to all H3605 WL-CMS the host H6635 of heaven H8064 D-AMD .
6 And he brought out H3318 W-VHY3MS the grove H842 from the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 EDS , without H2351 Jerusalem H3389 , unto H413 PREP the brook H5158 NMS Kidron H6939 , and burned H8313 it at the brook H5158 Kidron H6939 , and stamped it small H1854 to powder H6083 , and cast H7993 the powder H6083 thereof upon H5921 PREP the graves H6913 of the children H1121 of the people H5971 D-NMS .
7 And he broke down H5422 the houses H1004 of the sodomites H6945 , that H834 RPRO were by the house H1004 B-CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , where H834 RPRO the women H802 D-NFP wove H707 hangings H1004 NMP for the grove H842 .
8 And he brought H935 W-VHY3MS all H3605 NMS the priests H3548 out of the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 , and defiled H2930 the high places H1116 where H834 RPRO the priests H3548 had burned incense H6999 , from Geba H1387 to H5704 PREP Beer H884 - sheba , and broke down H5422 the high places H1116 of the gates H8179 that H834 RPRO were in the entering in H6607 CMS of the gate H8179 NMS of Joshua H3091 the governor H8269 of the city H5892 D-GFS , which H834 RPRO were on H5921 PREP a man H376 NMS \'s left hand H8040 NMS at the gate H8179 of the city H5892 D-GFS .
9 Nevertheless H389 ADV the priests H3548 of the high places H1116 came not up H5927 to H413 PREP the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 EDS in Jerusalem H3389 , but H518 PART they did eat H398 of the unleavened bread H4682 among H8432 B-NMS their brethren H251 CMP-3MP .
10 And he defiled H2930 Topheth H8612 , which H834 RPRO is in the valley H1516 of the children H1121 of Hinnom H2011 , that no H1115 L-NPAR man H376 NMS might make his son H1121 CMS-3MS or his daughter H1323 to pass through H5674 the fire H784 to Molech H4432 .
11 And he took away H7673 the horses H5483 that H834 RPRO the kings H4428 CMP of Judah H3063 had given H5414 to the sun H8121 , at the entering in of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , by H413 PREP the chamber H3957 of Nathan H5419 - melech the chamberlain H5631 , which H834 RPRO was in the suburbs H6503 , and burned H8313 the chariots H4818 of the sun H8121 D-NMS with fire H784 .
12 And the altars H4196 that H834 RPRO were on H5921 PREP the top H1406 of the upper chamber H5944 of Ahaz H271 , which H834 RPRO the kings H4428 CMP of Judah H3063 had made H6213 VQQ3MP , and the altars H4196 which H834 RPRO Manasseh H4519 had made H6213 VQQ3MS in the two H8147 courts H2691 of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , did the king H4428 D-NMS beat down H5422 , and broke them down H7323 from thence H8033 M-ADV , and cast H7993 the dust H6083 of them into H413 PREP the brook H5158 NMS Kidron H6939 .
13 And the high places H1116 that H834 RPRO were before H5921 PREP Jerusalem H3389 , which H834 RPRO were on the right hand H3225 of the mount H2022 of corruption H4889 , which H834 RPRO Solomon H8010 MMS the king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 had built H1129 VQQ3MS for Ashtoreth H6253 the abomination H8251 of the Zidonians H6722 , and for Chemosh H3645 the abomination H8251 of the Moabites H4124 , and for Milcom H4445 the abomination H8441 of the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 , did the king H4428 NMS defile H2930 .
14 And he broke in pieces H7665 the images H4676 , and cut down H3772 the groves H842 , and filled H4390 their places H4725 with the bones H6106 of men H120 .
15 Moreover H1571 W-CONJ the altar H4196 D-NMS that H834 RPRO was at Bethel H1008 , and the high place H1116 which H834 RPRO Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 of Nebat H5028 , who H834 RPRO made Israel H3478 to sin H2398 , had made H6213 VQQ3MS , both H1571 CONJ that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS altar H4196 D-NMS and the high place H1116 he broke down H5422 , and burned H8313 the high place H1116 , and stamped it small H1854 to powder H6083 , and burned H8313 the grove H842 .
16 And as Josiah H2977 turned H6437 himself , he spied H7200 W-VIY3MS the sepulchers H6913 that H834 RPRO were there H8033 ADV in the mount H2022 , and sent H7971 W-VQY3MS , and took H3947 W-VQY3MS the bones H6106 out of H4480 PREP the sepulchers H6913 , and burned H8313 them upon H5921 PREP the altar H4196 D-NMS , and polluted H2930 it , according to the word H1697 K-NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS which H834 RPRO the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-EDP proclaimed H7121 VQQ3MS , who H834 RPRO proclaimed H7121 VQQ3MS these H428 words H1697 AMP .
17 Then he said H559 W-VQY3MS , What H4100 IGAT title H6725 is that H1975 that H834 RPRO I H589 PPRO-1MS see H7200 VQPMS ? And the men H376 NMS of the city H5892 D-GFS told H559 W-VQY3MS him , It is the sepulcher H6913 of the man H376 NMS of God H430 D-NAME-4MP , which H834 RPRO came H935 VQPMS from Judah H3063 , and proclaimed H7121 W-VQY3MS these H428 D-DPRO-3MP things H1697 AMP that H834 RPRO thou hast done H6213 VQQ2MS against H5921 PREP the altar H4196 of Bethel H1008 LFS .
18 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Let him alone H5117 ; let no H408 NPAR man H376 NMS move H5128 his bones H6106 . So they let his bones alone H4422 , with H854 PREP the bones H6106 of the prophet H5030 that H834 RPRO came H935 VQPMS out of Samaria H8111 .
19 And all H3605 NMS the houses H1004 also H1571 W-CONJ of the high places H1116 that H834 RPRO were in the cities H5892 B-CFP of Samaria H8111 , which H834 RPRO the kings H4428 CMP of Israel H3478 had made H6213 W-VQY3MS to provoke the LORD to anger H3707 , Josiah H2977 took away H5493 VHQ3MS , and did H6213 W-VQY3MS to them according to all H3605 NMS the acts H4639 that H834 RPRO he had done H6213 W-VQY3MS in Bethel H1008 .
20 And he slew H2076 all H3605 NMS the priests H3548 of the high places H1116 that H834 RPRO were there H8033 ADV upon H5921 PREP the altars H4196 , and burned H8313 men H120 NMS \'s bones H6106 upon H5921 PREP them , and returned H7725 to Jerusalem H3389 .
21 And the king H4428 D-NMS commanded H6680 W-VPY3MS all H3605 NMS the people H5971 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Keep H6213 the passover H6453 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS your God H430 , as it is written H3789 in H5921 PREP the book H5612 CMS of this H2088 D-PMS covenant H1285 D-NFS .
22 Surely H3588 CONJ there was not H3808 NADV holden H6213 such H2088 D-PMS a passover H6453 from the days H3117 of the judges H8199 that H834 RPRO judged H8199 Israel H3478 , nor in all H3605 W-CMS the days H3117 CMP of the kings H4428 CMP of Israel H3478 , nor of the kings H4428 of Judah H3063 ;
23 But H518 PART in the eighteenth H8083 year H8141 NFS of king H4428 Josiah H2977 , wherein this H2088 D-PMS passover H6453 was holden H6213 to the LORD H3068 L-EDS in Jerusalem H3389 .
24 Moreover H1571 W-CONJ the workers with familiar spirits H178 , and the wizards H3049 , and the images H8655 , and the idols H1544 , and all H3605 NMS the abominations H8251 that H834 RPRO were spied H7200 VNQ3MP in the land H776 B-GFS of Judah H3063 and in Jerusalem H3389 , did Josiah H2977 put away H1197 , that H4616 L-CONJ he might perform H6965 the words H1697 CMP of the law H8451 which were written H3789 in H5921 PREP the book H5612 that H834 RPRO Hilkiah H2518 the priest H3548 found H4672 VQPMS in the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
25 And like unto him H3644 was H1961 VQQ3MS there no H3808 ADV king H4428 NMS before H6440 L-CMP-3MS him , that H834 RPRO turned H7725 VQQ3MS to H413 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS with all H3605 B-CMS his heart H3824 , and with all H3605 WB-CMS his soul H5315 NMS-3MS , and with all H3605 WB-CMS his might H3966 , according to all H3605 K-NMS the law H8451 CFS of Moses H4872 ; neither H3808 ADV after H310 W-PREP-3MS him arose H6965 there any like him H3644 .
26 Notwithstanding H389 ADV the LORD H3068 EDS turned H7725 VQQ3MS not H3808 UNKN from the fierceness H2740 M-CMS of his great H1419 D-AMS wrath H639 CMS-3MS , wherewith H834 RPRO his anger H639 CMS-3MS was kindled H2734 VQQ3MS against Judah H3063 , because H5921 PREP of all H3605 NMS the provocations H3708 that H834 RPRO Manasseh H4519 had provoked H3707 him withal .
27 And the LORD H3068 EDS said H559 W-VQY3MS , I will remove H5493 VHY1MS Judah H3063 also H1571 CONJ out of M-PREP my sight H6440 NMP-1MS , as H834 RPRO I have removed H5493 Israel H3478 , and will cast off H3988 this H2063 D-DFS city H5892 D-GFS Jerusalem H3389 which H834 RPRO I have chosen H977 , and the house H1004 D-NMS of which H834 RPRO I said H559 W-VQY3MS , My name H8034 shall be H1961 VQY3MS there H8033 ADV .
28 Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 CMP of Josiah H2977 , and all H3605 W-CMS that H834 RPRO he did H6213 VQQ3MS , are they H1992 PPRO-3MP not H3808 I-NADV written H3789 in H5921 PREP the book H5612 CMS of the chronicles H1697 CMP of the kings H4428 of Judah H3063 ?
29 In his days H3117 Pharaoh Necho H6549 king H4428 NMS of Egypt H4714 EFS went up H5927 against H5921 PREP the king H4428 NMS of Assyria H804 GFS to H5921 PREP the river H5104 Euphrates H6578 : and king H4428 NMS Josiah H2977 went H1980 W-VQY3MS against H7122 him ; and he slew H4191 him at Megiddo H4023 , when he had seen H7200 him .
30 And his servants H5650 carried H7392 him in a chariot dead H4191 from Megiddo H4023 , and brought H935 him to Jerusalem H3389 , and buried H6912 him in his own sepulcher H6900 . And the people H5971 NMS of the land H776 D-GFS took H3947 W-VQY3MS Jehoahaz H3059 the son H1121 of Josiah H2977 , and anointed H4886 him , and made him king H4427 in his father\'s stead H8478 NMS .
31 Jehoahaz H3059 was twenty H6242 and three H7969 years H8141 NFS old H1121 when he began to reign H4427 ; and he reigned H4427 three H7969 months H2320 in Jerusalem H3389 . And his mother H517 GFS-3MS \'s name H8034 W-CMS was Hamutal H2537 , the daughter H1323 of Jeremiah H3414 of Libnah H3841 .
32 And he did H6213 W-VQY3MS that which was evil H7451 in the sight H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS , according to all H3605 K-NMS that H834 RPRO his fathers H1 had done H6213 W-VQY3MS .
33 And Pharaoh Necho H6549 put him in bands H631 at Riblah H7247 in the land H776 B-GFS of Hamath H2574 , that he might not reign H4427 in Jerusalem H3389 ; and put H5414 W-VQY3MS the land H776 D-GFS to a tribute H6066 of a hundred H3967 MFS talents H3603 of silver H3701 NMS , and a talent H3603 of gold H2091 .
34 And Pharaoh Necho H6549 made H4427 Eliakim H471 the son H1121 of Josiah H2977 king H4427 in the room H8478 NMS of Josiah H2977 his father H1 CMS-3MS , and turned H5437 his name H8034 CMS-3MS to Jehoiakim H3079 , and took H3947 VQQ3MS Jehoahaz H3059 away : and he came H935 W-VQY3MS to Egypt H4714 EFS , and died H4191 W-VQY3MS there H8033 ADV .
35 And Jehoiakim H3079 gave H5414 VQQ3MS the silver H3701 and the gold H2091 to Pharaoh H6547 ; but H389 ADV he taxed H6186 the land H776 D-GFS to give H5414 L-VQFC the money H3701 according H5921 PREP to the commandment H6310 of Pharaoh H6547 EMS : he exacted H5065 the silver H3701 and the gold H2091 of the people H5971 NMS of the land H776 D-GFS , of every one H376 NMS according to his taxation H6187 , to give H5414 L-VQFC it unto Pharaoh Necho H6549 .
36 Jehoiakim H3079 was twenty H6242 and five H2568 years H8141 NFS old H1121 when he began to reign H4427 ; and he reigned H4427 eleven H259 years H8141 NFS in Jerusalem H3389 .
