@
Josiah
was
eight
years
old
when he began to
reign
, and he
reigned
thirty
and
one
years
in
Jerusalem
. And his
mothers
name
was
Jedidah
, the
daughter
of
Adaiah
of
Boscath
.
strkjv@2Kings:22:2
@ And he
did
that which was
right
in the
sight
of the
LORD
, and
walked
in all the
way
of
David
his
father
, and turned not
aside
to the right

left
s@.
strkjv@2Kings:22:3
@ And it came to pass in the
eighteenth
sh@
year
of
king
Josiah

king
sent
Shaphan
the

Azaliah

saying

up
to

sum
the
silver
which is
brought
into the
house

LORD

have
gathered

people
:
strkjv@2Kings:22:5
@ And let them
deliver
it into the
hand
of the
doers

work
m@, that have the
oversight

give
it to the
doers
of the
work
which is in the
house

LORD
, to
repair
the
breaches
of the
house
,
strkjv@2Kings:22:6
@ Unto
carpenters

builders

masons

buy
timber

to
repair
the
house

strkjv@2Kings:22:7
@ Howbeit there was no reckoning
made
with them of the
money
that was
delivered
into their
hand
, because they
dealt
faithfully
.
strkjv@2Kings:22:8
@ And
Hilkiah
the
high
priest
said
unto
Shaphan
the
scribe
, I have
found
the
book
of the
law
in the
house
of the
LORD
. And
Hilkiah
gave
the
book
to
Shaphan
, and he
read
it.
strkjv@2Kings:22:9
@ And
Shaphan
the
scribe
came
to the
king
, and
brought
the
king
word
again
, and
said
, Thy
servants
have
gathered
the
money
that was
found
in the
house
, and have
delivered
it into the
hand
of them that
do
the
work
m@, that have the

strkjv@2Kings:22:10
@ And
Shaphan
the
scribe
shewed
the
king
,
saying
,
Hilkiah
the
priest
hath
delivered
me a
book
. And
Shaphan
read
it
before
the
king
.
strkjv@2Kings:22:11
@ And it came to pass, when the
king
had
heard
the
words
of the
book
of the
law
, that he
rent
his
clothes
.
strkjv@2Kings:22:12
@ And the
king
commanded
Hilkiah
the
priest
, and
Ahikam
the
son
of
Shaphan
, and
Achbor
the
son
of
Michaiah
, and
Shaphan
the
scribe
, and
Asahiah
a

saying
,
strkjv@2Kings:22:13
@
Go
ye,
enquire
of the
LORD
for me, and for the
people
, and for all
Judah
, concerning the
words
of this
book
that is
found
: for
great
is the
wrath
of the
LORD
that is
kindled
against us, because our
fathers
have not
hearkened
unto the
words
of this
book
, to
do
according unto all that which is
written
concerning us.
strkjv@2Kings:22:14
@ So
Hilkiah
the
priest

Ahikam
, and
Achbor

Shaphan

went
unto

son
of
Harhas

keeper

dwelt
in
Jerusalem
in the
college

communed
with her.
strkjv@2Kings:22:15
@ And she
said
unto them, Thus
saith
the
LORD
God
of
Israel
,
Tell
the
man
that
sent
you to me,
strkjv@2Kings:22:16
@ Thus
saith
the
LORD
, Behold, I will
bring
evil
upon this
place
, and upon the
inhabitants
thereof, even all the
words
of the
book
which the
king
of
Judah
hath
read
:
strkjv@2Kings:22:17
@ Because they have
forsaken
me, and have burned
incense
unto
other
gods
, that they might provoke me to
anger
with all the
works
of their
hands
; therefore my
wrath
shall be
kindled
against this
place
, and shall not be
quenched
.
strkjv@2Kings:22:18
@ But to the
king
of
Judah
which
sent
you to
enquire
of the
LORD
, thus shall ye
say
to him, Thus
saith
the
LORD
God
of
Israel
, As touching the
words
which thou hast
heard
;
strkjv@2Kings:22:19
@ Because thine
heart
was
tender
, and thou hast
humbled
thyself
before
the
LORD
, when thou
heardest
what I
spake
against this
plce
, and against the
inhabitants
thereof, that they should become a
desolation
and a
curse
, and hast
rent
thy
clothes
, and
wept
before
me; I also have
heard
thee,
saith
the
LORD
.
strkjv@2Kings:22:20
@ Behold therefore, I will
gather
thee unto thy
fathers
, and thou shalt be
gathered
into thy
grave
in
peace
; and thine
eyes
shall not
see
all the
evil
which I will
bring
upon this
place
. And they
brought
the
king
word
again
.
