1 H2977 Josiah H8083 was eight H8141 years H1121 old H4427 when he began to reign, H4427 and he reigned H7970 thirty H259 and one H8141 years H3389 in Jerusalem. H517 And his mother’s H8034 name H3040 was Jedidah, H1323 the daughter H5718 of Adaiah H1218 of Boscath.

2 H6213 And he did H3477 that which was right H5869 in the sight H3068 of the LORD, H3212 and walked H3605 in all H1870 the way H1732 of David H1 his father, H5493 and turned H5493 not aside H3225 to the right H3225 hand H8040 or to the left.

3 H1961 And it came H6240 to pass in the eighteenth H8141 year H4428 of king H2977 Josiah, H4428 that the king H7971 sent H8227 Shaphan H1121 the son H683 of Azaliah, H1121 the son H4918 of Meshullam, H5608 the scribe, H1004 to the house H3068 of the LORD, H559 saying,

4 H5927 Go H2518 up to Hilkiah H1419 the high H3548 priest, H8552 that he may sum H3701 the silver H935 which is brought H1004 into the house H3068 of the LORD, H834 which H8104 the keepers H5592 of the door H622 have gathered H5971 of the people:

5 H5414 And let them deliver H5921 it into H3027 the hand H6213 of the doers H4399 of the work, H6485 that have the oversight H1004 of the house H3068 of the LORD: H5414 and let them give H6213 it to the doers H4399 of the work H834 which H1004 is in the house H3068 of the LORD, H2388 to repair H919 the breaches H1004 of the house,

6 H2796 To carpenters, H1129 and builders, H1443 and masons, H7069 and to buy H6086 timber H4274 and hewn H68 stone H2388 to repair H1004 the house.

7 H3808 However, there was no H2803 reckoning H3701 made with them of the money H5414 that was delivered H5921 into H3027 their hand, H3588 because H6213 they dealt H530 faithfully.

8 H2518 And Hilkiah H1419 the high H3548 priest H559 said H8227 to Shaphan H5608 the scribe, H4672 I have found H5612 the book H8451 of the law H1004 in the house H3068 of the LORD. H2518 And Hilkiah H5414 gave H5612 the book H8227 to Shaphan, H7121 and he read it.

9 H8227 And Shaphan H5608 the scribe H935 came H4428 to the king, H7725 and brought H4428 the king H1697 word H7725 again, H559 and said, H5650 Your servants H5413 have gathered H3701 the money H4672 that was found H1004 in the house, H5414 and have delivered H5921 it into H3027 the hand H6213 of them that do H4399 the work, H6485 that have the oversight H1004 of the house H3068 of the LORD.

10 H8227 And Shaphan H5608 the scribe H7200 showed H4428 the king, H559 saying, H2518 Hilkiah H3548 the priest H5414 has delivered H5612 me a book. H8227 And Shaphan H7121 read H6440 it before H4428 the king.

11 H1961 And it came H4428 to pass, when the king H8085 had heard H1697 the words H5612 of the book H8451 of the law, H7167 that he rent H899 his clothes.

12 H4428 And the king H6680 commanded H2518 Hilkiah H3548 the priest, H296 and Ahikam H1121 the son H8227 of Shaphan, H5907 and Achbor H1121 the son H4320 of Michaiah, H8227 and Shaphan H5608 the scribe, H6222 and Asahiah H5650 a servant H4428 of the king’s, H559 saying,

13 H3212 Go H1875 you, inquire H3068 of the LORD H5971 for me, and for the people, H3605 and for all H3063 Judah, H5921 concerning H1697 the words H2088 of this H5612 book H4672 that is found: H1419 for great H2534 is the wrath H3068 of the LORD H3341 that is kindled H3282 against us, because H834 H1 our fathers H8085 have not listened H1697 to the words H2088 of this H5612 book, H6213 to do H3605 according to all H3789 that which is written H5921 concerning us.

14 H2518 So Hilkiah H3548 the priest, H296 and Ahikam, H5907 and Achbor, H8227 and Shaphan, H6222 and Asahiah, H3212 went H2468 to Huldah H5031 the prophetess, H802 the wife H7967 of Shallum H1121 the son H8616 of Tikvah, H1121 the son H2745 of Harhas, H8104 keeper H899 of the wardrobe; H3427 (now she dwelled H3389 in Jerusalem H4932 in the college; H1696 ) and they communed with her.

15 H559 And she said H3541 to them, Thus H559 said H3068 the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel, H559 Tell H376 the man H7971 that sent you to me,

16 H3541 Thus H559 said H3068 the LORD, H2005 Behold, H935 I will bring H7451 evil H2088 on this H4725 place, H3427 and on the inhabitants H3605 thereof, even all H1697 the words H5612 of the book H834 which H4428 the king H3063 of Judah H7121 has read:

17 H8478 Because H834 H5800 they have forsaken H6999 me, and have burned H6999 incense H312 to other H430 gods, H3707 that they might provoke me to anger H3605 with all H4639 the works H3027 of their hands; H2534 therefore my wrath H3341 shall be kindled H2088 against this H4725 place, H3518 and shall not be quenched.

18 H4428 But to the king H3063 of Judah H7971 which sent H1875 you to inquire H3068 of the LORD, H3541 thus H559 shall you say H3541 to him, Thus H559 said H3068 the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel, H1697 As touching the words H834 which H8085 you have heard;

19 H3282 Because H3824 your heart H7401 was tender, H3665 and you have humbled H6440 yourself before H3068 the LORD, H8085 when you heard H834 what H1696 I spoke H5921 against H2088 this H4725 place, H5921 and against H3427 the inhabitants H1961 thereof, that they should become H8047 a desolation H7045 and a curse, H7167 and have rent H899 your clothes, H1058 and wept H6440 before H1571 me; I also H8085 have heard H5002 you, said H3068 the LORD.

20 H2005 Behold H3651 therefore, H622 I will gather H1 you to your fathers, H622 and you shall be gathered H413 into H6913 your grave H7965 in peace; H5869 and your eyes H7200 shall not see H3605 all H7451 the evil H834 which H935 I will bring H2088 on this H4725 place. H7725 And they brought H4428 the king H1697 word H7725 again.
