2 Chronicles 35:20–24

^20*nAfter all this, when Josiah had prepared the ^†temple, Necho king of Egypt came up to fight against ^oCarchemish by Euphrates: and Josiah went out against him. ²¹But he sent ambassadors to him, saying, ^pWhat have I to do with thee, thou king of Judah? I come not against thee this day, but against ^†the house wherewith I have war: for God commanded me to make haste: ^qforbear thee from meddling with God, who is with me, that he destroy thee not. ²²Nevertheless Josiah would not ^rturn his face from him, but ^sdisguised himself, that he might fight with him, and hearkened not unto the words of Necho ^tfrom the mouth of God, and came to fight in the ^yvalley of ^uMegiddo. ²³And the archers shot at king Josiah; and the king said to his servants, Have me away; for I am sore ^†wounded. ^24xHis servants therefore took him out of that chariot, and put him in the second chariot that he had; and they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died, and was buried ^||in one of the sepulchres of his fathers. And all Judah and Jerusalem ^ymourned for Josiah.
