2 Kings 22

Josiah
<02977>
[was] eight
<08083>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_,
and he reigned
<04427> (8804)
thirty
<07970>
and one
<0259>
years
<08141>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And his mother's
<0517>
name
<08034>
[was] Jedidah
<03040>_,
the daughter
<01323>
of Adaiah
<05718>
of Boscath
<01218>_.
And he did
<06213> (8799)
[that which was] right
<03477>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and walked
<03212> (8799)
in all the way
<01870>
of David
<01732>
his father
<01>_,
and turned not aside
<05493> (8804)
to the right hand
<03225>
or to the left
<08040>_.
And it came to pass in the eighteenth
<08083> <06240>
year
<08141>
of king
<04428>
Josiah
<02977>_,
[that] the king
<04428>
sent
<07971> (8804)
Shaphan
<08227>
the son
<01121>
of Azaliah
<0683>_,
the son
<01121>
of Meshullam
<04918>_,
the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,
to the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go up
<05927> (8798)
to Hilkiah
<02518>
the high
<01419>
priest
<03548>_,
that he may sum
<08552> (8686)
the silver
<03701>
which is brought
<0935> (8716)
into the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
which the keepers
<08104> (8802)
of the door
<05592>
have gathered
<0622> (8804)
of the people
<05971>_:
{door: Heb. threshold}
And let them deliver
<05414> (8799)
it into the hand
<03027>
of the doers
<06213> (8802)
of the work
<04399>_,
that have the oversight
<06485> (8716)
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_:
and let them give
<05414> (8799)
it to the doers
<06213> (8802)
of the work
<04399>
which [is] in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
to repair
<02388> (8763)
the breaches
<0919>
of the house
<01004>_,
Unto carpenters
<02796>_,
and builders
<01129> (8802)_,
and masons
<01443> (8802)_,
and to buy
<07069> (8800)
timber
<06086>
and hewn
<04274>
stone
<068>
to repair
<02388> (8763)
the house
<01004>_.
Howbeit there was no reckoning made
<02803> (8735)
with them of the money
<03701>
that was delivered
<05414> (8737)
into their hand
<03027>_,
because they dealt
<06213> (8802)
faithfully
<0530>_.
And Hilkiah
<02518>
the high
<01419>
priest
<03548>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Shaphan
<08227>
the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,
I have found
<04672> (8804)
the book
<05612>
of the law
<08451>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
And Hilkiah
<02518>
gave
<05414> (8799)
the book
<05612>
to Shaphan
<08227>_,
and he read
<07121> (8799)
it.
And Shaphan
<08227>
the scribe
<05608> (8802)
came
<0935> (8799)
to the king
<04428>_,
and brought
<07725> (0)
the king
<04428>
word
<01697>
again
<07725> (8686)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thy servants
<05650>
have gathered
<05413> (8689)
the money
<03701>
that was found
<04672> (8737)
in the house
<01004>_,
and have delivered
<05414> (8799)
it into the hand
<03027>
of them that do
<06213> (8802)
the work
<04399>_,
that have the oversight
<06485> (8716)
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
{gathered: Heb. melted}
And Shaphan
<08227>
the scribe
<05608> (8802)
shewed
<05046> (8686)
the king
<04428>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Hilkiah
<02518>
the priest
<03548>
hath delivered
<05414> (8804)
me a book
<05612>_.
And Shaphan
<08227>
read
<07121> (8799)
it before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_.
And it came to pass, when the king
<04428>
had heard
<08085> (8800)
the words
<01697>
of the book
<05612>
of the law
<08451>_,
that he rent
<07167> (8799)
his clothes
<0899>_.
And the king
<04428>
commanded
<06680> (8762)
Hilkiah
<02518>
the priest
<03548>_,
and Ahikam
<0296>
the son
<01121>
of Shaphan
<08227>_,
and Achbor
<05907>
the son
<01121>
of Michaiah
<04320>_,
and Shaphan
<08227>
the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,
and Asahiah
<06222>
a servant
<05650>
of the king's
<04428>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
{Achbor: or, Abdon} {Michaiah: or, Micah}
Go
<03212> (8798)
ye, enquire
<01875> (8798)
of the LORD
<03068>
for me, and for the people
<05971>_,
and for all Judah
<03063>_,
concerning the words
<01697>
of this book
<05612>
that is found
<04672> (8737)_:
for great
<01419>
[is] the wrath
<02534>
of the LORD
<03068>
that is kindled
<03341> (8738)
against us, because our fathers
<01>
have not hearkened
<08085> (8804)
unto the words
<01697>
of this book
<05612>_,
to do
<06213> (8800)
according unto all that which is written
<03789> (8803)
concerning us.
So Hilkiah
<02518>
the priest
<03548>_,
and Ahikam
<0296>_,
and Achbor
<05907>_,
and Shaphan
<08227>_,
and Asahiah
<06222>_,
went
<03212> (8799)
unto Huldah
<02468>
the prophetess
<05031>_,
the wife
<0802>
of Shallum
<07967>
the son
<01121>
of Tikvah
<08616>_,
the son
<01121>
of Harhas
<02745>_,
keeper
<08104> (8802)
of the wardrobe
<0899>_;
(now she dwelt
<03427> (8802)
in Jerusalem
<03389>
in the college
<04932>;)
and they communed
<01696> (8762)
with her. {wardrobe: Heb. garments} {in the...: or, in the second part}
And she said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Tell
<0559> (8798)
the man
<0376>
that sent
<07971> (8804)
you to me,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)
evil
<07451>
upon this place
<04725>_,
and upon the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
thereof, [even] all the words
<01697>
of the book
<05612>
which the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
hath read
<07121> (8804)_:
Because they have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
me, and have burned incense
<06999> (8762)
unto other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
that they might provoke me to anger
<03707> (8687)
with all the works
<04639>
of their hands
<03027>_;
therefore my wrath
<02534>
shall be kindled
<03341> (8738)
against this place
<04725>_,
and shall not be quenched
<03518> (8799)_.
But to the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
which sent
<07971> (8802)
you to enquire
<01875> (8800)
of the LORD
<03068>_,
thus shall ye say
<0559> (8799)
to him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
[As touching] the words
<01697>
which thou hast heard
<08085> (8804)_;
Because thine heart
<03824>
was tender
<07401> (8804)_,
and thou hast humbled
<03665> (8735)
thyself before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
when thou heardest
<08085> (8800)
what I spake
<01696> (8765)
against this place
<04725>_,
and against the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
thereof, that they should become a desolation
<08047>
and a curse
<07045>_,
and hast rent
<07167> (8799)
thy clothes
<0899>_,
and wept
<01058> (8799)
before
<06440>
me; I also have heard
<08085> (8804)
[thee], saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Behold therefore, I will gather
<0622> (8802)
thee unto thy fathers
<01>_,
and thou shalt be gathered
<0622> (8738)
into thy grave
<06913>
in peace
<07965>_;
and thine eyes
<05869>
shall not see
<07200> (8799)
all the evil
<07451>
which I will bring
<0935> (8688)
upon this place
<04725>_.
And they brought
<07725> (0)
the king
<04428>
word
<01697>
again
<07725> (8686)_.
