2 Chronicles 35:21-23

Jubilee Bible 2000

²¹ But he sent ambassadors to him, saying, What have I to do with thee, thou king of Judah? I do not come against thee this day, but against the house that makes war with me, for God commanded me to make haste. Forbear from meddling with God, who is with me, that he not destroy thee.

²² Nevertheless, Josiah would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself, that he might fight with him, and did not hearken unto the words of Necho from the mouth of God, and came to fight him in the valley of Megiddo.

²³ And the archers shot King Josiah, and the king said to his slaves, Take me away, for I am sore wounded.
