Yoshiyahu was eight years old when he began to reign; and he reigned thirty-one years in Yerushalayim: and his mother's name was Yedidah the daughter of `Adayah of Botzkat.
He cried against the altar by the word of the LORD, and said, altar, altar, thus says the LORD: Behold, a son shall be born to the house of David, Yoshiyahu by name; and on you shall he sacrifice the Kohanim of the high places who burn incense on you, and men's bones shall they burn on you.
The word of the LORD which came to Tzefanyah, the son of Kushi, the son of Gedalyahu, the son of Amaryah, the son of Chizkiyahu, in the days of Yoshiyahu, the son of Amon, king of Yehudah.
