Josiah 2977 [was] eight 8083 years 8141 old 1121 when he began to reign, 4427-2 and he reigned 4427-1 thirty 7970 and one 259 years 8141 in Jerusalem. 3389 And his mother's 517 name 8034 [was] Jedidah, 3040 the daughter 1323 of Adaiah 5718 of Boscath. 1218 |
| 2 |
And he did 6213-4 [that which was] right 3477 in the sight 5869 of the LORD, 3068 and walked 3212-4 in all the way 1870 of David 1732 his father, 1 and turned not aside 5493-1 to the right hand 3225 or to the left. 8040 |
| 3 |
And it came to pass in the eighteenth 8083 6240 year 8141 of king 4428 Josiah, 2977 [that] the king 4428 sent 7971-1 Shaphan 8227 the son 1121 of Azaliah, 683 the son 1121 of Meshullam, 4918 the scribe, 5608-6 to the house 1004 of the LORD, 3068 saying, 559-2 |
| 4 |
Go up 5927-3 to Hilkiah 2518 the high 1419 priest, 3548 that he may sum 8552-55 the silver 3701 which is brought into 935-94 the house 1004 of the LORD, 3068 which the keepers 8104-6 of the door 5592 have gathered 622-1 of the people: 5971 |
| 5 |
And let them deliver 5414-4 it into the hand 3027 of the doers 6213-6 of the work, 4399 that have the oversight 6485-94 of the house 1004 of the LORD: 3068 and let them give 5414-4 it to the doers 6213-6 of the work 4399 which [is] in the house 1004 of the LORD, 3068 to repair 2388-15 the breaches 919 of the house, 1004 |
| 6 |
Unto carpenters, 2796 and builders, 1129-6 and masons, 1443-6 and to buy 7069-2 timber 6086 and hewn 4274 stone 68 to repair 2388-15 the house. 1004 |
| 7 |
Howbeit there was no reckoning made 2803-11 with them of the money 3701 that was delivered 5414-12 into their hand, 3027 because they dealt 6213-6 faithfully. 530 |
| 8 |
And Hilkiah 2518 the high 1419 priest 3548 said 559-4 unto Shaphan 8227 the scribe, 5608-6 I have found 4672-1 the book 5612 of the law 8451 in the house 1004 of the LORD. 3068 And Hilkiah 2518 gave 5414-4 the book 5612 to Shaphan, 8227 and he read 7121-4 it. |
| 9 |
And Shaphan 8227 the scribe 5608-6 came 935-4 to the king, 4428 and brought the king 4428 word 1697 again, 7725-55 and said, 559-4 Thy servants 5650 have gathered 5413-52 the money 3701 that was found 4672-12 in the house, 1004 and have delivered 5414-4 it into the hand 3027 of them that do 6213-6 the work, 4399 that have the oversight 6485-94 of the house 1004 of the LORD. 3068 |
| 10 |
And Shaphan 8227 the scribe 5608-6 shewed 5046-55 the king, 4428 saying, 559-2 Hilkiah 2518 the priest 3548 hath delivered 5414-1 me a book. 5612 And Shaphan 8227 read 7121-4 it before 6440 the king. 4428 |
| 11 |
And it came to pass, when the king 4428 had heard 8085-2 the words 1697 of the book 5612 of the law, 8451 that he rent 7167-4 his clothes. 899 |
| 12 |
And the king 4428 commanded 6680-17 Hilkiah 2518 the priest, 3548 and Ahikam 296 the son 1121 of Shaphan, 8227 and Achbor 5907 the son 1121 of Michaiah, 4320 and Shaphan 8227 the scribe, 5608-6 and Asahiah 6222 a servant 5650 of the king's, 4428 saying, 559-2 |
| 13 |
Go 3212-3 ye, enquire 1875-3 of the LORD 3068 for me, and for the people, 5971 and for all Judah, 3063 concerning the words 1697 of this book 5612 that is found: 4672-12 for great 1419 [is] the wrath 2534 of the LORD 3068 that is kindled 3341-8 against us, because our fathers 1 have not hearkened 8085-1 unto the words 1697 of this book, 5612 to do 6213-2 according unto all that which is written 3789-7 concerning us. |
| 14 |
So Hilkiah 2518 the priest, 3548 and Ahikam, 296 and Achbor, 5907 and Shaphan, 8227 and Asahiah, 6222 went 3212-4 unto Huldah 2468 the prophetess, 5031 the wife 802 of Shallum 7967 the son 1121 of Tikvah, 8616 the son 1121 of Harhas, 2745 keeper 8104-6 of the wardrobe; 899 (now she dwelt 3427-6 in Jerusalem 3389 in the college;) 4932 and they communed 1696-17 with her. |
| 15 |
And she said 559-4 unto them, Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel, 3478 Tell 559-3 the man 376 that sent 7971-1 you to me, |
| 16 |
Thus saith 559-1 the LORD, 3068 Behold, I will bring 935-56 evil 7451 upon this place, 4725 and upon the inhabitants 3427-6 thereof, [even] all the words 1697 of the book 5612 which the king 4428 of Judah 3063 hath read: 7121-1 |
| 17 |
Because they have forsaken 5800-1 me, and have burned incense 6999-17 unto other 312 gods, 430 that they might provoke me to anger 3707-53 with all the works 4639 of their hands; 3027 therefore my wrath 2534 shall be kindled 3341-8 against this place, 4725 and shall not be quenched. 3518-4 |
| 18 |
But to the king 4428 of Judah 3063 which sent 7971-6 you to enquire 1875-2 of the LORD, 3068 thus shall ye say 559-4 to him, Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel, 3478 [As touching] the words 1697 which thou hast heard; 8085-1 |
| 19 |
Because thine heart 3824 was tender, 7401-1 and thou hast humbled 3665-11 thyself before 6440 the LORD, 3068 when thou heardest 8085-2 what I spake 1696-14 against this place, 4725 and against the inhabitants 3427-6 thereof, that they should become a desolation 8047 and a curse, 7045 and hast rent 7167-4 thy clothes, 899 and wept 1058-4 before 6440 me; I also have heard 8085-1 [thee], saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068 |
| 20 |
Behold therefore, I will gather 622-6 thee unto thy fathers, 1 and thou shalt be gathered 622-8 into thy grave 6913 in peace; 7965 and thine eyes 5869 shall not see 7200-4 all the evil 7451 which I will bring 935-56 upon this place. 4725 And they brought the king 4428 word 1697 again. 7725-55 |
