2 Chronicles 35:22 in Context — 2 Chronicles 35

20 Depois de todas estas coisas, logo de haver Josias preparado a casa, Neco rei do Egito subiu a fazer guerra em Carquêmis junto a Eufrates; e saiu Josias contra ele.

21 E ele lhe enviou embaixadores, dizendo: Que temos eu e tu, rei de Judá? Eu não venho contra ti hoje, mas sim contra a casa que me faz guerra: e Deus disse que me apressasse. Deixa-te de intrometer-te com Deus, que é comigo, não te destrua.

22 Mas Josias não voltou seu rosto dele, em vez disso disfarçou-se para dar-lhe batalha, e não atendeu às palavras de Neco, que eram da boca de Deus; e veio a dar-lhe a batalha no campo de Megido.

23 E os arqueiros atiraram ao rei Josias flechas; e disse o rei a seus servos: Tirai-me daqui, porque estou ferido gravemente.

24 Então seus servos o tiraram daquele carro, e puseram-lhe em outro segundo carro que tinha, e levaram-lhe a Jerusalém, e morreu; e sepultaram-lhe nos sepulcros de seus pais. E todo Judá e Jerusalém fez luto por Josias.
