2 Kings 23:29-31

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁹ In his days, Pharaoh Necho, king of Egypt, went up against the king of Assyria, to the river Perath. And King Josiah went against him. And when Pharaoh saw him, he killed him at Megiddo.

³⁰ Then his servants carried his body from Megiddo and brought him to Jerusalem and buried him in his own sepulcher. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz, the son of Josiah, and anointed him and made him king in his father’s place.

³¹ Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign. And he reigned for three months in Jerusalem. Also, his mother’s name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
