22 UJosiya+ wayeleminyaka engu-8 ngesikhathi esiba yinkosi futhi wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka engu-31.+ Unina kwakunguJedida indodakazi ka-Adaya waseBhozikhathi.+ 2 Wenza okulungileyo phambi kukaJehova wahamba kuzo zonke izindlela zikakhokho wakhe uDavida.+ Kazange aphambukele kwesokudla loba kwesenxele.

23 Kodwa ngomnyaka wesi-18 wokubusa kweNkosi uJosiya benzela uJehova iPhasika leli eJerusalema.

25 Akuzange kube lenkosi ngaphambi kwakhe eyabuyela kuJehova ngenhliziyo yonke langomphefumulo* wonke+ langamandla wonke, ilandela konke okuseMthethweni kaMosi. Langemva kwakhe akuzange kube lenkosi enjengaye.
