2 Kings 22:11-17
11And it came to pass, when the kingH4428 had heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of the bookH5612 of the lawH8451, that he rentH7167 his clothesH899. 12And the kingH4428 commandedH6680 HilkiahH2518 the priestH3548, and AhikamH296 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, and AchborH5907 the sonH1121 of MichaiahH4320, and ShaphanH8227 the scribeH5608, and AsahiahH6222 a servantH5650 of the king’sH4428, sayingH559,12 13GoH3212 ye, enquireH1875 of YhwhH3068 for me, and for the peopleH5971, and for all JudahH3063, concerning the wordsH1697 of this bookH5612 that is foundH4672: for greatH1419 is the wrathH2534 of YhwhH3068 that is kindledH3341 against us, because our fathersH1 have not hearkenedH8085 unto the wordsH1697 of this bookH5612, to doH6213 according unto all that which is writtenH3789 concerning us. 14So HilkiahH2518 the priestH3548, and AhikamH296, and AchborH5907, and ShaphanH8227, and AsahiahH6222, wentH3212 unto HuldahH2468 the prophetessH5031, the wifeH802 of ShallumH7967 the sonH1121 of TikvahH8616, the sonH1121 of HarhasH2745, keeperH8104 of the wardrobeH899; (now she dweltH3427 in JerusalemH3389 in the collegeH4932;) and they communedH1696 with her.34
15And she saidH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, TellH559 the manH376 that sentH7971 you to me, 16Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068, Behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon this placeH4725, and upon the inhabitantsH3427 thereof, even all the wordsH1697 of the bookH5612 which the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 hath readH7121: 17Because they have forsakenH5800 me, and have burned incenseH6999 unto otherH312 godsH430, that they might provoke me to angerH3707 with all the worksH4639 of their handsH3027; therefore my wrathH2534 shall be kindledH3341 against this placeH4725, and shall not be quenchedH3518.
