2 Kings 23:15-20

Moreover the altar
<04196>
that [was] at Bethel
<01008>_,
[and] the high place
<01116>
which Jeroboam
<03379>
the son
<01121>
of Nebat
<05028>_,
who made Israel
<03478>
to sin
<02398> (8689)_,
had made
<06213> (8804)_,
both that altar
<04196>
and the high place
<01116>
he brake down
<05422> (8804)_,
and burned
<08313> (8799)
the high place
<01116>_,
[and] stamped
<01854> (8689)
[it] small to powder
<06083>_,
and burned
<08313> (8804)
the grove
<0842>_.
And as Josiah
<02977>
turned
<06437> (8799)
himself, he spied
<07200> (8799)
the sepulchres
<06913>
that [were] there in the mount
<02022>_,
and sent
<07971> (8799)_,
and took
<03947> (8799)
the bones
<06106>
out of the sepulchres
<06913>_,
and burned
<08313> (8799)
[them] upon the altar
<04196>_,
and polluted
<02930> (8762)
it, according to the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
which the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
proclaimed
<07121> (8804)_,
who proclaimed
<07121> (8804)
these words
<01697>_.
Then he said
<0559> (8799)_,
What title
<06725>
[is] that
<01975>
that I see
<07200> (8802)_?
And the men
<0582>
of the city
<05892>
told
<0559> (8799)
him, [It is] the sepulchre
<06913>
of the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
which came
<0935> (8804)
from Judah
<03063>_,
and proclaimed
<07121> (8799)
these things
<01697>
that thou hast done
<06213> (8804)
against the altar
<04196>
of Bethel
<01008>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Let him alone
<03240> (8685)_;
let no man
<0376>
move
<05128> (8686)
his bones
<06106>_.
So they let his bones
<06106>
alone
<04422> (8762)_,
with the bones
<06106>
of the prophet
<05030>
that came out
<0935> (8804)
of Samaria
<08111>_.
{bones alone: Heb. bones to escape}
And all the houses
<01004>
also of the high places
<01116>
that [were] in the cities
<05892>
of Samaria
<08111>_,
which the kings
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
had made
<06213> (8804)
to provoke [the LORD] to anger
<03707> (8687)_,
Josiah
<02977>
took away
<05493> (8689)_,
and did
<06213> (8799)
to them according to all the acts
<04639>
that he had done
<06213> (8804)
in Bethel
<01008>_.
And he slew
<02076> (8799)
all the priests
<03548>
of the high places
<01116>
that [were] there upon the altars
<04196>_,
and burned
<08313> (8799)
men's
<0120>
bones
<06106>
upon them, and returned
<07725> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
{slew: or, sacrificed}
