20 After all this, when Josiah (whom YHWH heals) had set the temple in order, Neco (lame) king of Egypt (land of bondage) marched up to fight at Carchemish (fortress of Chemosh) by the Euphrates (fruitfulness), and Josiah went out to confront him. 21 But Neco sent messengers to him, saying, “What is the issue between you and me, O king of Judah (praised)? I have not come against you today, but I am fighting another dynasty, and God {Elohim} has told me to hurry. So stop opposing God, who is with me, or He will destroy you!” 2 Chronicles 35:20-21, Berean Annotated Bible. Public domain.
