2 Kings 23:15–20

¹⁵Moreover, the altar at Bethel, the high place erected ^bby Jeroboam the son of Nebat, ^cwho made Israel to sin, ^dthat altar with the high place he pulled down and burned,⁴ reducing it to dust. He also burned the Asherah. ¹⁶And as Josiah turned, he saw the tombs there on the mount. And he sent and took the bones out of the tombs and burned them on the altar and defiled it, ^eaccording to the word of the Lord that the man of God proclaimed, who had predicted these things. ¹⁷Then he said, “What is that monument that I see?” And the men of the city told him, ^f“It is the tomb of the man of God who came from Judah and predicted⁵ these things that you have done against the altar at Bethel.” ¹⁸And he said, “Let him be; let no man move his bones.” So they let his bones alone, with the bones ^gof the prophet who came out of Samaria. ¹⁹And Josiah removed all the shrines also of the high places that were ^hin the cities of Samaria, which kings of Israel had made, provoking the Lord to anger. He did to them according to all that he had done at Bethel. ²⁰And ⁱhe sacrificed all the priests of the high places who were there, on the altars, ^jand burned human bones on them. Then he returned to Jerusalem.
