2 Kings 23:23-25
World English Bible
23 but in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, this Passover was kept to Yahweh in Jerusalem. 24 Moreover Josiah removed those who had familiar spirits, the wizards, and the teraphim,[a] and the idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, that he might confirm the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in Yahweh’s house. 25 There was no king like him before him, who turned to Yahweh with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; and there was none like him who arose after him.

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)
