Behold, I will
gather thee to thy
fathers, and thou shalt be
gathered to thy
grave in
peace, neither shall thine
eyes see all the
evil that I will
bring upon this
place, and upon the
inhabitants of the same. So they
brought the
king word again.

And the
king went
up into the
house of the
LORD, and all the
men of
Judah, and the
inhabitants of
Jerusalem, and the
priests, and the
Levites, and all the
people, great and
small: and he
read in their
ears all the
words of the
book of the
covenant that was
found in the
house of the
LORD.

And the
king stood in his
place, and
made a
covenant before the
LORD, to
walk after the
LORD, and to

heart, and with all his
soul, to
perform the
words of the
covenant which are
written in this
book.

God, the
God of their
fathers.

And
Josiah took
away all the
abominations out of all the
countries that pertained to the
children of
Israel, and made all that were
present in
Israel to
serve, even to
serve the
LORD their
God. And all his
days they
departed not from
following the
LORD, the
God of their
fathers.
