29 aIn his days bPharaoh Neco king of Egypt went up to the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates. King Josiah went to meet him, and Pharaoh Neco killed him at cMegiddo, as soon as he saw him. 30 dAnd his servants carried him dead in a chariot from eMegiddo and brought him to Jerusalem and buried him in his own tomb. fAnd the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father’s place.

Isaiah 57:1-2

Israel’s Futile Idolatry

1 The righteous man perishes,
and no one lays it to heart;
hdevout men are taken away,
while no one understands.
For the righteous man is taken away from calamity;
2 ihe enters into peace;
they rest jin their beds
who walk in their uprightness.

Jeremiah 22:10

10 kWeep not for him who is dead,
nor grieve for him,
lbut weep bitterly for him who goes away,
for he shall return no more
to see his native land.

Jeremiah 22:15-16

15Do you think you are a king
because you compete in cedar?
Did not your father eat and drink
and mdo justice and righteousness?
nThen it was well with him.
16 oHe judged the cause of the poor and needy;
pthen it was well.
Is not this qto know me?
declares the Lord.
