¹¹ When Micaiah the son of Gemariah, son of ^(A)Shaphan, heard all the words of the Lord from the scroll,

¹⁰ Then, in the hearing of all the people, Baruch read the words of Jeremiah from the scroll, in the house of the Lord, in ^(A)the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the secretary, which was in the upper court, at the entry of the New Gate of the Lord's house.

²⁰ And the king commanded Hilkiah, Ahikam the son of Shaphan, Abdon the son of Micah, Shaphan the secretary, and Asaiah the king's servant, saying,

Gedaliah Made Governor of Judah

²² And over the people who remained in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, he appointed ^(A)Gedaliah the son of ^(B)Ahikam, son of Shaphan, governor.

¹² And the king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and ^(A)Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and ^(B)Achbor the son of ^(C)Micaiah, and Shaphan the secretary, and Asaiah the king's servant, saying, ¹³ “Go, inquire of the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that has been found. For great is ^(D)the wrath of the Lord that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not obeyed the words of this book, to do according to all that is written concerning us.”

¹⁴ So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asaiah went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of ^(E)Tikvah, son of ^(F)Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe (now she lived in Jerusalem in ^(G)the Second Quarter), and they talked with her.
