Josiah Restores True Worship
29 aThen the king sent and gathered all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
30 The king went up to the house of the Lord, with all the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem—the priests and the Levites, and all the people, great and small. And he aread in their hearing all the words of the Book of the Covenant which had been found in the house of the Lord.
31 Then the king astood in bhis place and made a ccovenant before the Lord, to follow the Lord, and to keep His commandments and His testimonies and His statutes with all his heart and all his soul, to perform the words of the covenant that were written in this book.
32 And he made all who were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin take a stand. So the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.
33 Thus Josiah removed all the aabominations from all the country that belonged to the children of Israel, and made all who were present in Israel1 diligently serve the Lord their God. bAll his days they did not depart from following the Lord God of their fathers.
