Josiah removes those who had familiar spirits and the idols, and the LORD says that he will also remove Judah

요시야가 신접한 자와 우상을 제하고 여호와께서 유다도 물리치리라고 이르심

2 Kings 23:24–27: Josiah removes those who had familiar spirits, the wizards, and the teraphim, and the idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, “that he might confirm the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the LORD’s house.” The text says, “There was no king like him before him, who turned to the LORD with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; and there was none like him who arose after him. Notwithstanding, the LORD didn’t turn from the fierceness of his great wrath, with which his anger burned against Judah, because of all the provocation with which Manasseh had provoked him.” The LORD says, “I will also remove Judah out of my sight, as I have removed Israel; and I will cast off this city which I have chosen, even Jerusalem, and the house of which I said, ‘My name shall be there.’” The Korean Revised Version calls Hilkiah 대제사장, the high priest, where WEB reads “Hilkiah the priest” (23:24), and names Josiah twice at 23:25 (요시야와 같이 … 요시야 전에도), where WEB reads “him”.
