• 2 Kgs 22:3-9 : 3 In the eighteenth year of King Josiah's reign, the king sent Shaphan, son of Azaliah and grandson of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of the LORD, saying, 4 “Go to Hilkiah the high priest, so that he may count the silver brought into the house of the LORD, which the doorkeepers have collected from the people. 5 Let it be given to the hands of the workmen who are appointed over the house of the LORD, and they shall use it to pay the workers engaged in the repairs of the house— 6 the carpenters, builders, and masons. It shall also be used to buy timber and quarried stone for repairing the house. 7 But no accounting shall be demanded from the workers for the silver that is given to them, for they are acting faithfully. 8 Then Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the Book of the Law in the house of the LORD.” Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan, who read it. 9 Shaphan the scribe then went to the king and reported to him, saying, “Your servants have removed the silver that was found in the house and have handed it over to those who oversee the work on the house of the LORD.” 10 Shaphan the scribe also told the king, “Hilkiah the priest has given me a book.” And Shaphan read it aloud to the king. 11 When the king heard the words of the Book of the Law, he tore his clothes. 12 Then the king commanded Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam son of Shaphan, Achbor son of Micaiah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah, the king’s servant, saying, 13 Go and inquire of the LORD for me, for the people, and for all of Judah concerning the words of this book that has been found. For great is the LORD’s wrath that is kindled against us because our ancestors did not obey the words of this book by doing everything written concerning us. 14 So Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, Achbor, Shaphan, and Asaiah went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum, son of Tikvah, son of Harhas, the keeper of the wardrobe. She was living in Jerusalem in the second district. They spoke to her. 15 She said to them, “Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Say to the man who sent you to me, 16 ‘Thus says the LORD: Behold, I am bringing disaster on this place and on its inhabitants—all the words of the book that the king of Judah has read—’ 17 ‘Because they have forsaken Me and burned incense to other gods, provoking Me to anger with all the works of their hands. Therefore, My wrath is kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched.’ 18 As for the king of Judah who sent you to inquire of the LORD, you shall say to him: ‘Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Regarding the words you have heard, 19 Because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the LORD when you heard what I spoke against this place and its inhabitants—that they would become a desolation and a curse—and because you tore your clothes and wept before Me, I also have heard you, declares the LORD. 20 Therefore, behold, I will gather you to your ancestors, and you will be buried in peace. Your eyes will not see all the disaster that I am going to bring upon this place.’” Then they brought back word to the king.
