2 Kings 22:16-20

16“This is what the Lord says: ‘Behold, I am going to 1bring disaster on this place and on its inhabitants, all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read.

172Since they have abandoned Me and have burned incense to other gods so that they may provoke Me to anger with all the work of their hands, My wrath burns against this place, and it shall not be quenched.’”

18But to 3the king of Judah who sent you to inquire of the Lord, this is what you shall say to him: “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel says: ‘Regarding the words which you have heard,

194since your heart was tender and 5you humbled yourself before the Lord when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they would become 6an object of horror and a 7curse, and you have 8torn your clothes and wept before Me, I have indeed heard you,’ declares the Lord.”

20Therefore, behold, I am going to gather you to your fathers, and 9you will be gathered to your grave in peace, and your eyes will not look at all the devastation that I am going to bring on this place.’” So they brought back word to the king.
