^29 (A)In his days ^(B)Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt went up to the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates. And King Josiah went to meet him, and when Pharaoh Neco saw him he killed him at ^(C)Megiddo. ^30 (D)His servants drove ^[a]his body in a chariot from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem and buried him in his own tomb. ^(E)Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah and anointed him and made him king in place of his father.

^31 (F)Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was ^(G)Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
