SCRIPTURE

"And the archers shot at king Josiah; and the king said to his servants, Have me away; for I am sore wounded." — 2 Chronicles 35:23 (ASV)

And the archers shot at King Josiah
For, though disguised, he appeared to be a general officer, and indeed chief commander, and therefore aimed at him, and pressed him hard:

and the king said to his servants, have me away, for I am wounded ;
as Ahab said, when in the like case, (1 Kings 22:34) .
