Den Josiah bring all da pries guys dat work fo Da One In Charge from da Judah towns. Dey make all da sacrifice places on top da hills from Geba to Beer-Sheba so nobody can use um. Dass wea dose odda fake pries guys wen go fo burn incense befo time, but Josiah dem make um fo nobody use um no moa. He broke down da sacrifice places fo da idol kine gods, dat stay by da gate fo go inside da palace wea Joshua live. (He da Jerusalem mayor guy.

He take all of um outa dea, an smash um in small kine pieces, an throw all dat stuff inside da Kidron Valley. 
An da king make um fo nobody use da sacrifice places on top da hills across Jerusalem, da south side a da Olive Ridge. Solomon, da king fo da Israel peopo, wen build dose places fo Ashtoret, da pilau wahine god fo da Sidon peopo, fo Kemosh, da pilau god fo da Moab peopo, an fo Molek, da god dat erybody hate, da pilau god fo da Ammon peopo.

But Josiah broke down da altar an da sacrifice place, an burn up da sacrifice place an poun um till come ashes. Josiah burn da tiki pos fo da wahine god Asherah too. 
Den Josiah look aroun. He see some graves stay ova dea on top da Bethel hill, an he tell his guys fo go take da bones outa dem an burn um up on top da altar fo make um so no can use da altar fo make one sacrifice dea. Az was wat Da One In Charge wen tell goin happen, da time one guy dat stay tight wit God wen tell erybody dat dis stuff goin happen. 
Den da king aks somebody, “Wat dat odda big grave stone I see ova dea?” Da Bethel guys tell um, “Az da place wea dey bury one guy dat stay tight wit God. He wen come hea from Judah side. Long time befo time, he tell erybody bout dese tings dat you jus wen do to da Bethel altar.” 
Da king tell, “No touch his grave! Leave um go! No let nobody move his bones.” So dey leave his bones, an da bones a da odda guy dat talk fo God, dat wen come dea from Samaria. 
Den Josiah make jalike he wen do Bethel side, all ova da Israel land too. All da buildings fo da sacrifice places on top da hills, dat da Israel kings wen build inside da towns aroun Samaria, an dey know Da One In Charge no like dat, an make um mad, Josiah get rid a dem an make um so no can use da place fo make sacrifice no moa.

He make lidat cuz he like make shua da peopo do eryting da Rules tell, dat stay inside da book dat Hilkiah wen find inside da Temple Fo Da One In Charge. 
From all da kings dat come befo Josiah, an all da kings dat come afta him, neva get even anodda king jalike Josiah. Az cuz he tell “Laytas” to wat da king guys befo him stay do, he go all out fo come tight wit Da One In Charge wit all his powa an eryting inside him. He do eryting jalike all da Rules from Moses tell. 
Still yet, Da One In Charge stay huhu wit da Judah peopo cuz a all dat King Manasseh wen do fo make Da One In Charge come huhu. 
Az why Da One In Charge tell, “I goin take away da Judah peopo from in front me, jalike I take away da Israel peopo awready. I goin throw out dis Jerusalem peopo. No matta I wen pick dis town an dis Temple. No matta I wen tell, ‘Dis Temple goin be da place wea peopo can find out who me!’”
