2 Chronicles 34:1-3 ▼

1 Josiah was a son of eight years in his reigning, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem.

2 And he did right in the eyes of YHWH and walked in the ways of David his father, and he did not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.

3 And in the eighth year of his reign (and he was still young) he began to seek the God of David his father. And in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem of the high places, and the Asherah poles, and the carved images, and the molten images.
