And as Josiah turned himself, he spied the sepulchres that were there in the mount; and he sent, and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and burned them upon the altar, and defiled it, according to the word of Jehovah which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these things.

Then Josiah, turning round, saw on the mountain the places of the dead, and he sent and had the bones taken out of their places and burned on the altar, so making it unclean, as the Lord had said by the man of God when Jeroboam was in his place by the altar on that feast-day. And he, turning his eyes to the resting-place of the man of God who had given word of these things, said:

Οτε δε ο Ιωσιας εστραφη και ειδε τους ταφους τους εκει εν τω ορει, εστειλε και ελαβε τα οστα εκ των ταφων και κατεκαυσεν αυτα επι του θυσιαστηριου, και εβεβηλωσεν αυτο· κατα τον λογον του Κυριου, τον οποιον εκηρυξεν ο ανθρωπος του Θεου, ο λαλησας τους λογους τουτους.

And as Josiah turned himself, he spied the sepulchres that were there in the mount, and sent, and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and burned them upon the altar, and polluted it, according to the word of the Lord which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these words.
