2 Kings 23:24-26

Good News Translation

Other Changes Made by Josiah

²⁴ In order to enforce the laws written in the book that the High Priest Hilkiah had found in the Temple, King Josiah removed from Jerusalem and the rest of Judah all the mediums and fortunetellers, and all the household gods, idols, and all other pagan objects of worship. ²⁵ There had never been a king like him before, who served the Lord with all his heart, mind, and strength, obeying all the Law of Moses; nor has there been a king like him since.

²⁶ But the Lord's fierce anger had been aroused against Judah by what King Manasseh had done, and even now it did not die down.
