His servants therefore took him out of that chariot, and put him in the second chariot that he had; and they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died, and was buried in one of the sepulchres of his fathers. And all Judah and Jerusalem mourned for Josiah.

Verse 24 is found in chapter 35 of 2 Chronicles. Josiah enters battle against Neco of Egypt without heeding his warning that the campaign was not directed against him. Josiah dies at Megiddo and is mourned by Judah. The episode introduces a tragic note after the great reforms: a life characterized by seeking God does not eliminate the need to discern political and military decisions carefully.

Und seine Knechte taten ihn von dem Wagen und führten ihn auf seinem andern Wagen und brachten ihn gen Jerusalem; und er starb und ward begraben in den Gräbern seiner Väter. Und ganz Juda und Jerusalem trugen Leid um Josia.
Entonces sus siervos lo quitaron de aquel carro, y pusiéronle en otro segundo carro que tenía, y lleváronle a Jerusalem, y murió; y sepultáronle en los sepulcros de sus padres. Y todo Judá y Jerusalem hizo duelo por Josías.
Ses serviteurs l'emportèrent du char, le mirent dans un second char qui était à lui, et l'amenèrent à Jérusalem. Il mourut, et fut enterré dans le sépulcre de ses pères. Tout Juda et Jérusalem pleurèrent Josias.
E i suoi servitori lo tolsero d’in sul carro, e lo misero sopra il suo secondo carro, e lo menarono in Gerusalemme; ed egli morì, e fu seppellito nelle sepolture de’ suoi padri. E tutto Giuda e Gerusalemme fecero cordoglio di Giosia.
E seus servos o tiraram do carro, e o levaram no segundo carro que tinha, e o trouxeram a Jerusalém; e morreu, e o sepultaram nos sepulcros de seus pais; e todo o Judá e Jerusalém prantearam a Josias.
他的臣僕扶他下了戰車,上了他的副座車,送他到 耶路撒冷 。他就死了,葬在他祖先的墳墓裏。全 猶大 和 耶路撒冷 都哀悼 約西亞 。
