18 And there was no Passover kept like that in Israel, from the days of Samuel the Prophet: neither did all the kings of Israel keep such a Passover as Josiah kept, and the Priests and the Levites, and all Judah, and Israel that were [a]present, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
19 This Passover was kept in [b]the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah.
20 ¶ (A)After all this, when Josiah had prepared the Temple Necho king of Egypt came up to fight against [c]Carchemish by [d]Perath and Josiah went out against him.
