Jerome's Latin Vulgate (405)
Sed et pythones, et ariolos, et figuras idolorum, et immunditias, et abominationes, quæ fuerant in terra Juda et Jerusalem, abstulit Josias: ut statueret verba legis quæ scripta sunt in libro quem invenit Helcias sacerdos in templo Domini.

Sed et pythones et hariolos et theraphim et idola abominationesque omnes, quae erant in terra Iudae et in Ierusalem, abstulit Iosias, ut statueret verba legis, quae scripta sunt in libro, quem invenit Helcias sacerdos in templo Domini.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Moreover, the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards,.... Who were not to be allowed among the Israelites, Deuteronomy 18:10

and the images; or teraphim: and the idols, and all the abominations; which were worshipped by the Heathens, and introduced among the Jews, and forbidden by the word of God:

that were spied in the land of Judah, and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away; for which, it seems, diligent search was made, and wherever they were discovered were removed:

that he might perform the words of the law, which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the Lord; both with respect to witchcraft and idolatry, see Leviticus 20:27.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Perform - Rather, establish. Josiah saw that it was necessary, not only to put down open idolatry, but also to root out the secret practices of a similar character which were sometimes combined with the worship of Yahweh, notwithstanding that the Law forbade them (marginal references), and which probably formed, with many, practically almost the whole of their religion.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Kings 23:24. The workers with familiar spirits — See on 2 Kings 21:5.

And the images — The teraphim. Genesis 31:19.
