2 Chronicles 34:1-3 ▼

1 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned for 31 years in Jerusalem.

2 He practiced what the LORD considered to be right, following the example of his ancestor David, turning neither to the right nor to the left.

3 In the eighth year of his reign, while he was still young, he began to seek the God of his ancestor David. In the twelfth year of his reign, he began to remove the high places, Asherim, carved images, and cast images from Judah and Jerusalem.
