21 And the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll, and he fetched it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes that stood beside the king.
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter-house in the ninth month, and with the fire-pan burning before him.
23 And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four columns, he cut it with the scribe`s knife, and cast it into the fire that was in the pan until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was in the pan.
24 And they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, [neither] the king nor any of his servants that heard all these words.
