NASB | 2 Chronicles 35:21 But Neco sent messengers to him, saying, "What have we to do with each other, O King of Judah? I am not coming against you today but against the house with which I am at war, and God has ordered me to hurry. Stop for your own sake from interfering with God who is with me, so that He will not destroy you." |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Chronicles 35:21 But Neco sent messengers to Josiah, saying, "What business do we have with each other, O King of Judah? I am not coming against you today, but against the house with which I am at war, and God has ordered me to hurry. Stop for your own sake from interfering with God who is with me, so that He will not destroy you." |
Bible Question: In 2Chron.34:28 Huldah the prophetess states that king Josiah will be: "...gathered to your grave in peace..." Yet in the very next chapter he is wounded in battle and dies: 2Chron.35:23,24. Is there anything to suggest that Huldah was a false prophetess and if not, then how can the prophecy and what actually happened be reconciled? |
Bible Answer: Seedsower, Judah was peace when Josiah died. The Egyptian Neco came up to fight another and Josiah went into battle at the Euphrates disguised and was killed, but his land was still at peace, although Josiah had ignored the word of the Lord from Neco's mouth. Emmaus |
