2 Chronicles 34:1-3
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
Reign of Josiah
34 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign; he reigned for thirty-one years in Jerusalem. 2 He did what was right in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the ways of his ancestor David; he did not turn aside to the right or to the left. 3 For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was still a boy, he began to seek the God of his ancestor David, and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem of the high places, the sacred poles,[a] and the carved and the cast images.
