2 Chronicles 34:3
ଯୋଶିୟ ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କର ଇଚ୍ଛା ଅନୁସରଣ କରିବାକୁ ଲାଗିଲେ, ଯାହାଙ୍କୁ ତାଙ୍କର ପୂର୍ବପୁରୁଷ ଦାଉଦ ତାଙ୍କ ରାଜତ୍ବର ଅଷ୍ଟମ ବର୍ଷ ରେ ଅନୁସରଣ କରିଥିଲେ। ଯୋଶିୟଯ ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କୁ ଅନୁସରଣ କରିବାକୁ ଆରମ୍ଭ କରିବା ସମୟରେ ତଥାପି ଅଳ୍ପବଯସ୍କ ଥିଲେ। ଯୋଶିୟଯଙ୍କ ରାଜତ୍ବର ଦ୍ବାଦଶ ବର୍ଷ ରେ ସେ ଯିହୁଦା ଓ ୟିରୁଶାଲମ ରେ ଥିବା ଉଚ୍ଚସ୍ଥାନ, ଆଶରୋ ସ୍ତମ୍ଭ ଖାଦେିତ ପ୍ରତିମା ଓ ଢ଼ାଞ୍ଚା ରେ ଢ଼ଳା ମୂର୍ତ୍ତିସବୁକୁ ବିନଷ୍ଟ କଲେ।
