workmen{H4399} that have the oversight{H6485} of the house{H1004} of Jehovah.{H3068} 10 And Shaphan{H8227} the scribe{H5608} told{H5046} the king,{H4428} saying,{H559} Hilkiah{H2518} the priest{H3548} hath delivered{H5414} me a book.{H5612} And Shaphan{H8227} read{H7121} it before{H6440} the king.{H4428} 11 And it came to pass, when the king{H4428} had heard{H8085} the words{H1697} of the book{H5612} of the law,{H8451} that he rent{H7167} his clothes.{H899} 12 And the king{H4428} commanded{H6680} Hilkiah{H2518} the priest,{H3548} and Ahikam{H296} the son{H1121} of Shaphan,{H8227} and Achbor{H5907} the son{H1121} of Micaiah,{H4320} and Shaphan{H8227} the scribe,{H5608} and Asaiah{H6222} the king's{H4428} servant,{H5650} saying,{H559} 13 Go{H3212} ye, inquire{H1875} of Jehovah{H3068} for me, and for the people,{H5971} and for all Judah,{H3063} concerning the words{H1697} of this book{H5612} that is found;{H4672} for great{H1419} is the wrath{H2534} of Jehovah{H3068} that is kindled{H3341} against us, because our fathers{H1} have not hearkened{H8085} unto the words{H1697} of this book,{H5612} to do{H6213} according unto all that which is written{H3789} concerning us. 14 So Hilkiah{H2518} the priest,{H3548} and Ahikam,{H296} and Achbor,{H5907} and Shaphan,{H8227} and Asaiah,{H6222} went{H3212} unto Huldah{H2468} the prophetess,{H5031} the wife{H802} of Shallum{H7967} the son{H1121} of Tikvah,{H8616} the son{H1121} of Harhas,{H2745} keeper{H8104} of the wardrobe{H899} (now she dwelt{H3427} in Jerusalem{H3389} in the second quarter);{H4932} and they communed{H1696} with her. 15 And she said{H559} unto them, Thus saith{H559} Jehovah,{H3068} the God{H430} of Israel:{H3478} Tell{H559} ye the man{H376} that sent{H7971} you unto me, 16 Thus saith{H559} Jehovah,{H3068} Behold, I will bring{H935} evil{H7451} upon this place,{H4725} and upon the inhabitants{H3427} thereof, even all the words{H1697} of the book{H5612} which the king{H4428} of Judah{H3063} hath read.{H7121} 17 Because they have forsaken{H5800} me, and have burned incense{H6999} unto other{H312} gods,{H430} that they might provoke me to anger{H3707} with all the work{H4639} of their hands,{H3027} therefore my wrath{H2534} shall be kindled{H3341} against this place,{H4725} and it shall not be quenched.{H3518} 18 But unto the king{H4428} of Judah,{H3063} who sent{H7971} you to inquire{H1875} of Jehovah,{H3068} thus shall ye say{H559} to him, Thus saith{H559} Jehovah,{H3068} the God{H430} of Israel:{H3478} As touching the words{H1697} which thou hast heard,{H8085} 19 because thy heart{H3824} was tender,{H7401} and thou didst humble{H3665} thyself before{H6440} Jehovah,{H3068} when thou heardest{H8085} what I spake{H1696} against this place,{H4725} and against the inhabitants{H3427} thereof, that they should become a desolation{H8047} and a curse,{H7045} and hast rent{H7167} thy clothes,{H899} and wept{H1058} before{H6440} me; I also have heard{H8085} thee, saith{H5002} Jehovah.{H3068} 20 Therefore, behold, I will gather{H622} thee to thy fathers,{H1} and thou shalt be gathered{H622} to thy grave{H6913} in peace,{H7965} neither shall thine eyes{H5869} see{H7200} all the evil{H7451} which I will bring{H935} upon this place.{H4725} And they brought{H7725} the king{H4428} word{H1697} again.{H7725}
