1599 Geneva Bible
14 And he brake the images in pieces, and cut down the groves, and filled their places with the bones of men.
15 Furthermore [a]the altar that was at Bethel, and the high place made by Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin, both this altar and also the high place, brake he down, and burnt the high place, and stamped it to powder and burnt the grove.
16 And as Josiah turned himself, he spied the graves that were in the mount, and sent and took the bones out of the graves, and burnt them upon the altar and polluted it, according to the word of the Lord, that the [b]man of God proclaimed, which cried the same words.
