2 Chronicles 35:21
Lakini Niko akatuma wajumbe kwake, akisema, “Nikufanye nini, mfalme wa Yuda? Leo siji kinyume nawe, lakini dhidi ya nyumba ambayo nafanya vita nayo. Mungu ameniamuru kuwahi, hivyo acha kumwingilia Mungu, ambaye yuko pamoja nami, la sivyo atakuangamiza.”

2 Chronicles 35:21 in other translations
But he sent ambassadors to him, saying, What have I to do with thee, thou king of Judah? I come not against thee this day, but against the house wherewith I have war: for God commanded me to make haste: forbear thee from meddling with God, who is with me, that he destroy thee not.
But Neco sent messengers to him, saying, “What is the issue between you and me, O king of Judah? I have not come against you today, but I am fighting another dynasty. God told me to hurry; so stop opposing God, who is with me, or He will destroy you!”
But he sent ambassadors to him, saying, “What have I to do with you, you king of Judah? I come not against you today, but against the house with which I have war. God has commanded me to make haste. Beware that it is God who is with me, that he not destroy you.”

In context
18 Pasika kama hiyo haijafanyika tena katika Israeli tangu siku za nabii Samweli, wala hakuna mfalme yeyote miongoni mwa wafalme wa Israeli ambaye amewahi kusherekea Pasaka kama Yosia alivyofanya, pamoja na makuhani, Walawi, na watu wote wa Yuda na Israeli waliokuwepo, na wakaaji wote wa Yerusalemu.
19 Pasaka hii ilitunzwa ndani ya miaka kumi na nane ya utawala wa Yosia.
20 Baada ya haya yote, baada ya Yosia kuliweka hekalu katika utaratibu, Neko, mfalme wa Misiri, akaenda juu kupigana dhidi ya Karkemist karibu na mto Frati, na Yosia akaenda kupigana juu yake.
21 Lakini Niko akatuma wajumbe kwake, akisema, “Nikufanye nini, mfalme wa Yuda? Leo siji kinyume nawe, lakini dhidi ya nyumba ambayo nafanya vita nayo. Mungu ameniamuru kuwahi, hivyo acha kumwingilia Mungu, ambaye yuko pamoja nami, la sivyo atakuangamiza.”
22 Hata hivyo, Yosia alipuuzia kurudi nyuma. Akajibadili ili apigane naye. Hakusikiliza maneno ya Neko ambayo yalikuja kutoka kwenye kinywa cha Mungu; hivyo akaenda kupigana kataika bonde la Megido.
23 Wapiga upinde wakampiga Mfalme Yosia, na mfalme akawaambia watumishi wake, “Niondoeni hapa, kwa maana nimejeruhiwa vibaya.”
24 Kwa hiyo watumishi wake wakamtoa nje ya gari, na kumuweka katika gari lake la tahadhari. Wakampeleka Yerusalemu, ambako alikufa. Alzikwa katika makaburi ya babu zake. Yuda wote na Yerusalemu wakamwomboleza.
