[8]And HilkiahH2518 the highH1419 priestH3548 saidH559[H8799] unto ShaphanH8227 the scribeH5608[H8802], I have foundH4672[H8804] the bookH5612 of the lawH8451 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. And HilkiahH2518 gaveH5414[H8799] the bookH5612 to ShaphanH8227, and he readH7121 itH8799. |
[No book] |
[9]And ShaphanH8227 the scribeH5608[H8802] cameH935[H8799] to the kingH4428, and broughtH7725 the kingH4428 wordH1697 againH7725[H8686], and saidH559[H8799], Thy servantsH5650 have gatheredH5413[H8689] the moneyH3701 that was foundH4672[H8737] in the houseH1004, and have deliveredH5414[H8799] it into the handH3027 of them that doH6213[H8802] the workH4399, that have the oversightH6485[H8716] of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. |
[No book] |
[10]And ShaphanH8227 the scribeH5608[H8802] shewedH5046[H8686] the kingH4428, sayingH559[H8800], HilkiahH2518 the priestH3548 hath deliveredH5414[H8804] me a bookH5612. And ShaphanH8227 readH7121[H8799] it beforeH6440 the kingH4428. |
[No book] |
[11]And it came to pass, when the kingH4428 had heardH8085[H8800] the wordsH1697 of the bookH5612 of the lawH8451, that he rentH7167[H8799] his clothesH899. |

[12]And the kingH4428 commandedH6680[H8762] HilkiahH2518 the priestH3548, and AhikamH296 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, and AchborH5907 the sonH1121 of MichaiahH4320, and ShaphanH8227 the scribeH5608[H8802], and AsahiahH6222 a servantH5650 of the king'sH4428, sayingH559,[H8800] |
[No book] |
[13]GoH3212[H8798] ye, enquireH1875[H8798] of the LORDH3068 for me, and for the peopleH5971, and for all JudahH3063, concerning the wordsH1697 of this bookH5612 that is foundH4672[H8737]: for greatH1419 is the wrathH2534 of the LORDH3068 that is kindledH3341[H8738] against us, because our fathersH1 have not hearkenedH8085[H8804] unto the wordsH1697 of this bookH5612, to doH6213[H8800] according unto all that which is writtenH3789 concerning usH8803. |

[14]So HilkiahH2518 the priestH3548, and AhikamH296, and AchborH5907, and ShaphanH8227, and AsahiahH6222, wentH3212[H8799] unto HuldahH2468 the prophetessH5031, the wifeH802 of ShallumH7967 the sonH1121 of TikvahH8616, the sonH1121 of HarhasH2745, keeperH8104[H8802] of the wardrobeH899; (now she dweltH3427[H8802] in JerusalemH3389 in the collegeH4932;) and they communedH1696 with herH8762. |
[No book] |
[15]And she saidH559[H8799] unto them, Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, TellH559[H8798] the manH376 that sentH7971 you to meH8804, |
[No book] |
[16]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068, Behold, I will bringH935[H8688] evilH7451 upon this placeH4725, and upon the inhabitantsH3427[H8802] thereof, even all the wordsH1697 of the bookH5612 which the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 hath readH7121:[H8804] |
[No book] |
[17]Because they have forsakenH5800[H8804] me, and have burned incenseH6999[H8762] unto otherH312 godsH430, that they might provoke me to angerH3707[H8687] with all the worksH4639 of their handsH3027; therefore my wrathH2534 shall be kindledH3341[H8738] against this placeH4725, and shall not be quenchedH3518.[H8799] |
[No book] |
[18]But to the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 which sentH7971[H8802] you to enquireH1875[H8800] of the LORDH3068, thus shall ye sayH559[H8799] to him, Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, As touching the wordsH1697 H8085which thou hast heardH8804 |
[No book] |
[19]Because thine heartH3824 was tenderH7401[H8804], and thou hast humbledH3665[H8735] thyself beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, when thou heardestH8085[H8800] what I spakeH1696[H8765] against this placeH4725, and against the inhabitantsH3427[H8802] thereof, that they should become a desolationH8047 and a curseH7045, and hast rentH7167[H8799] thy clothesH899, and weptH1058[H8799] beforeH6440 me; I also have heardH8085[H8804] thee, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068. |
[No book] |
[20]Behold therefore, I will gatherH622[H8802] thee unto thy fathersH1, and thou shalt be gatheredH622[H8738] into thy graveH6913 in peaceH7965; and thine eyesH5869 shall not seeH7200[H8799] all the evilH7451 which I will bringH935[H8688] upon this placeH4725. And they broughtH7725 the kingH4428 wordH1697 againH7725.[H8686] |
