NASB
"But in the eighteenth year of King Josiah, this Passover was observed to the LORD in Jerusalem."
— 2 Kings 23:23, NASB
“But in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, wherein this passover was holden to the Lord in Jerusalem.”
“but in the eighteenth year of king Josiah was this passover kept to Jehovah in Jerusalem. ”
“but in the eighteenth year of king Josiah was this Passover kept to Yahweh in Jerusalem.”
“But in the eighteenth year of King Josiah’s reign, such a Passover of the LORD was observed in Jerusalem.”
“As was this Phase, that was kept to the Lord in Jerusalem, in the eighteenth year of king Josias.”
“In the eighteenth year of the rule of King Josiah this Passover was kept to the Lord in Jerusalem.”
“But in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, wherein this passover was holden to the Lord in Jerusalem.”
All the priests of the high places who were there he slaughtered on the altars and burned human bones on them; then he returned to Jerusalem.
Then the king commanded all the people saying, "Celebrate the Passover to the LORD your God as it is written in this book of the covenant."
Surely such a Passover had not been celebrated from the days of the judges who judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel and of the kings of Judah.
But in the eighteenth year of King Josiah, this Passover was observed to the LORD in Jerusalem.
Moreover, Josiah removed the mediums and the spiritists and the teraphim and the idols and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, that he might confirm the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD.
Before him there was no king like him who turned to the LORD with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; nor did any like him arise after him.
However, the LORD did not turn from the fierceness of His great wrath with which His anger burned against Judah, because of all the provocations with which Manasseh had provoked Him.
