2 Kings 22:18-20

Contemporary English Version

¹⁸ “Josiah, listen to what I am going to do. ¹⁹ I noticed how sad you were when you read that this country and its people would be completely wiped out. You even tore your clothes in sorrow, and I heard you cry. ²⁰ So I will let you die in peace, before I destroy this place.”

The men left and took Huldah's answer back to Josiah.
