Josiah and Other Worthies

49 The namea of Josiah is like blended incense

prepared by the skill of the perfumer;

his memoryb is as sweet as honey to every mouth,

and like music at a banquet of wine.

2 He did what was right by reforming the people,

and removing the wicked abominations.

3 He kept his heart fixed on the Lord;

in lawless times he made godliness prevail.
