2 Chronicles 34:22-28
New English Translation

22 So Hilkiah and the others sent by the king[a] went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah,[b] the supervisor of the wardrobe.[c] (She lived in Jerusalem in the Mishneh[d] district.) They stated their business,[e] 23 and she said to them: “This is what the Lord God of Israel says: ‘Say this to the man who sent you to me: 24 “This is what the Lord says: ‘I am about to bring disaster on this place and its residents, all the curses that are recorded in the scroll which they read before the king of Judah. 25 This will happen because they have abandoned me and offered sacrifices[f] to other gods, angering me with all the idols they have made.[g] My anger will ignite against this place and will not be extinguished!’” 26 Say this to the king of Judah, who sent you to seek an oracle from the Lord: “This is what the Lord God of Israel says concerning the words you have heard: 27 ‘You displayed a sensitive spirit[h] and humbled yourself before God when you heard his words concerning this place and its residents. You humbled yourself before me, tore your clothes and wept before me, and I have heard you,’ says the Lord. 28 ‘Therefore I will allow you to die and be buried in peace.[i] You will not have to witness all the disaster I will bring on this place and its residents.’”’” Then they reported back to the king.
