22:1 A
son
of
eight
years
[is]
Josiah
in
his
reigning,
and
thirty
and
one
years
he
hath
reigned
in
Jerusalem,
and
the
name
of
his
mother
[is]
Jedidah
daughter
of
Adaiah
of
Boskath,
22:2 and
he
doth
that
which
is
right
in
the
eyes
of
Jehovah,
and
walketh
in
all
the
way
of
David
his
father,
and
hath
not
turned
aside--right
or
left.
22:3 And
it
cometh
to
pass,
in
the
eighteenth
year
of
king
Josiah,
the
king
hath
sent
Shaphan
son
of
Azaliah,
son
of
Meshullam,
the
scribe,
to
the
house
of
Jehovah,
saying,
22:4 `Go
up
unto
Hilkiah
the
high
priest,
and
he
doth
complete
the
silver
that
is
brought
into
the
house
of
Jehovah,
that
the
keepers
of
the
threshold
have
gathered
from
the
people,
22:5 and
they
give
it
into
the
hand
of
the
doers
of
the
work,
the
overseers,
in
the
house
of
Jehovah,
and
they
give
it
to
the
doers
of
the
work
that
[is]
in
the
house
of
Jehovah,
to
strengthen
the
breach
of
the
house,
22:6 to
artificers,
and
to
builders,
and
[to
repairers
of]
the
wall,
and
to
buy
wood
and
hewn
stones
to
strengthen
the
house;
22:7 only,
the
silver
that
is
given
into
their
hand
is
not
reckoned
with
them,
for
in
faithfulness
they
are
dealing.
22:8 And
Hilkiah
the
high
priest
saith
unto
Shaphan
the
scribe,
`A
book
of
the
law
I
have
found
in
the
house
of
Jehovah;'
and
Hilkiah
giveth
the
book
unto
Shaphan,
and
he
readeth
it.
22:9 And
Shaphan
the
scribe
cometh
in
unto
the
king,
and
bringeth
the
king
back
word,
and
saith,
`Thy
servants
have
poured
out
the
silver
that
hath
been
found
in
the
house,
and
give
it
into
the
hand
of
the
doers
of
the
work,
the
inspectors,
in
the
house
of
Jehovah.'
22:10 And
Shaphan
the
scribe
declareth
to
the
king,
saying,
`A
book
hath
Hilkiah
the
priest
given
to
me;'
and
Shaphan
readeth
it
before
the
king.
22:11 And
it
cometh
to
pass,
at
the
king's
hearing
the
words
of
the
book
of
the
law,
that
he
rendeth
his
garments,
22:12 and
the
king
commandeth
Hilkiah
the
priest,
and
Ahikam
son
of
Shaphan,
and
Achbor
son
of
Michaiah,
and
Shaphan
the
scribe,
and
Asahiah
servant
of
the
king,
saying,
22:13 `Go,
seek
Jehovah
for
me,
and
for
the
people,
and
for
all
Judah,
concerning
the
words
of
this
book
that
is
found,
for
great
[is]
the
fury
of
Jehovah
that
is
kindled
against
us,
because
that
our
fathers
have
not
hearkened
unto
the
words
of
this
book,
to
do
according
to
all
that
is
written
for
us.'
22:14 And
Hilkiah
the
priest
goeth,
and
Ahikam,
and
Achbor,
and
Shaphan,
and
Asahiah,
unto
Huldah
the
prophetess,
wife
of
Shallum,
son
of
Tikvah,
son
of
Harhas,
keeper
of
the
garments,
and
she
is
dwelling
in
Jerusalem
in
the
second,
and
they
speak
unto
her.
22:15 And
she
saith
unto
them,
`Thus
said
Jehovah,
God
of
Israel,
Say
to
the
man
who
hath
sent
you
unto
me:
22:16 Thus
said
Jehovah,
Lo,
I
am
bringing
in
evil
unto
this
place
and
on
its
inhabitants,
all
the
words
of
the
book
that
the
king
of
Judah
hath
read,
22:17 because
that
they
have
forsaken
Me,
and
make
perfume
to
other
gods,
so
as
to
provoke
Me
to
anger
with
every
work
of
their
hands,
and
My
wrath
hath
been
kindled
against
this
place,
and
it
is
not
quenched.
22:18 `And
unto
the
king
of
Judah,
who
is
sending
you
to
seek
Jehovah,
thus
do
ye
say
unto
him,
Thus
said
Jehovah,
God
of
Israel,
The
words
that
thou
hast
heard--
22:19 because
thy
heart
[is]
tender,
and
thou
art
humbled
because
of
Jehovah,
in
thy
hearing
that
which
I
have
spoken
against
this
place,
and
against
its
inhabitants,
to
be
for
a
desolation,
and
for
a
reviling,
and
dost
rend
thy
garments,
and
weep
before
Me--I
also
have
heard--the
affirmation
of
Jehovah--
22:20 therefore,
lo,
I
am
gathering
thee
unto
thy
fathers,
and
thou
hast
been
gathered
unto
thy
grave
in
peace,
and
thine
eyes
do
not
look
on
any
of
the
evil
that
I
am
bringing
in
on
this
place;'
and
they
bring
the
king
back
word.
