In the end, Pharaoh-Necho killed Yoshiyahu in Megiddo when he saw him.
- Yoshiyahu is buried: The servants of Yoshiyahu transported his dead body from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem and buried him in his grave.
- His successor: The people anointed Yehoachaz the son of Yoshiyahu as king instead of his father.
