1 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozkath. 2 Kings 22:1WEB
2 He did that which was right in YHWH’s eyes, and walked in all the way of David his father, and didn’t turn away to the right hand or to the left. 2 Kings 22:2WEB
3 In the eighteenth year of king Josiah, the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to YHWH’s house, saying, 2 Kings 22:3WEB
4 “Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may count the money which is brought into YHWH’s house, which the keepers of the threshold have gathered of the people. 2 Kings 22:4WEB
5 Let them deliver it into the hand of the workers who have the oversight of YHWH’s house; and let them give it to the workers who are in YHWH’s house, to repair the damage to the house, 2 Kings 22:5WEB
6 to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the house. 2 Kings 22:6WEB
7 However, no accounting shall be asked of them for the money delivered into their hand, for they deal faithfully.” 2 Kings 22:7WEB
8 Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in YHWH’s house.” Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it. 2 Kings 22:8WEB
9 Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, “Your servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hands of the workmen who have the oversight of YHWH’s house.” 2 Kings 22:9WEB
10 Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, “Hilkiah the priest has delivered a book to me.” Then Shaphan read it before the king. 2 Kings 22:10WEB
11 When the king had heard the words of the book of the law, he tore his clothes. 2 Kings 22:11WEB
12 The king commanded Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam the son of Shaphan, Achbor the son of Micaiah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king’s servant, saying, 2 Kings 22:12WEB
13 “Go inquire of YHWH for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found; for great is YHWH’s wrath that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not listened to the words of this book, to do according to all that which is written concerning us.” 2 Kings 22:13WEB
14 So Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, Achbor, Shaphan, and Asaiah went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe (now she lived in Jerusalem in the second quarter); and they talked with her. 2 Kings 22:14WEB
15 She said to them, “YHWH the God of Israel says, ‘Tell the man who sent you to me, 2 Kings 22:15WEB
16 “YHWH says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on this place and on its inhabitants, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read. 2 Kings 22:16WEB
17 Because they have forsaken me and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched.’” 2 Kings 22:17WEB
18 But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of YHWH, tell him, “YHWH the God of Israel says, ‘Concerning the words which you have heard, 2 Kings 22:18WEB
19 because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before YHWH when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you,’ says YHWH. 2 Kings 22:19WEB
20 ‘Therefore behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes will not see all the evil which I will bring on this place.’”’” So they brought this message back to the king. 2 Kings 22:20WEB
