2 Kings 23:23-25
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
23 but in the eighteenth year of King Josiah this passover was kept to the Lord in Jerusalem.
24 Moreover Josiah put away the mediums, wizards, teraphim,[a] idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, so that he established the words of the law that were written in the book that the priest Hilkiah had found in the house of the Lord. 25 Before him there was no king like him, who turned to the Lord with all his heart, with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; nor did any like him arise after him.

2 Kings 23:23-25
New International Version
23 But in the eighteenth year of King Josiah, this Passover was celebrated to the Lord in Jerusalem.(A)
24 Furthermore, Josiah got rid of the mediums and spiritists,(B) the household gods,(C) the idols and all the other detestable(D) things seen in Judah and Jerusalem. This he did to fulfill the requirements of the law written in the book that Hilkiah the priest had discovered in the temple of the Lord. 25 Neither before nor after Josiah was there a king like him who turned(E) to the Lord as he did—with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his strength, in accordance with all the Law of Moses.(F)
