2 Chronicles 34:22-28

International Standard Version

“This is what the Lord God of Israel says: ‘Tell the man who sent you to me, ²⁴ “This is what the Lord says: ‘Pay attention! I’m bringing evil to visit this place and its inhabitants—every single curse written in the book that they’ve been reading to the King of Judah. ²⁵ Because they abandoned me and have burned incense to other gods, provoking me to become angry at everything they’re doing,^[a] therefore my wrath is about to be poured out on this place, and it won’t be quenched.’”’

²⁶ “Now tell the king of Judah who sent you to ask the Lord about this: ‘This is what the Lord God of Israel says about what you’ve heard: ²⁷ “Because your heart was sensitive, and you humbled yourself before God when you heard what he had to say about this place and its inhabitants—indeed, because you humbled yourself before me, tore your clothes, and cried out to me, I have heard you,” declares the Lord. ²⁸ “Look! I’m going to take you to your ancestors, and you will be buried in your grave in peace so that you won’t have to see all the evil that I’m going to bring to this place and to its inhabitants.”’”
