2 Kings 22
22
1Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] [was] eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty and one years in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]. And his mother’s name [was] Y’didah [beloved], the daughter of ‘Adayah [Yehovah has adorned Himself] of Botzkat [rocky height].
2And he did [that which was] right in the sight of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and walked in all the way of David [beloved] his father, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left.
3And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals], [that] the king sent Shafan [coney] the son of Atzalyahu [Yehovah has set apart], the son of Meshulam [friend], the scribe, to the house of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), saying,
4Go up to Hilkiyahu [my portion is Yehovah] the High Priest, that he may sum the silver which is brought into the house of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), which the keepers of the door have gathered of the people:
5And let them deliver it into the hand of the doers of the work, that have the oversight of the house of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate): and let them give it to the doers of the work which [is] in the house of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), to repair the breaches of the house,
6Unto carpenters, and builders, and masons, and to buy timber and cut stone to repair the house.
7However there was no accounting made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand, because they dealt faithfully.
8And Hilkiyahu [my portion is Yehovah] the High Priest said unto Shafan [coney] the scribe, I have found the book of the Torah in the house of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate). And Hilkiyahu [my portion is Yehovah] gave the book to Shafan [coney], and he read it.
9And Shafan [coney] the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Your1s servants have gathered the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of them that do the work, that have the oversight of the house of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
10And Shafan [coney] the scribe showed the king, saying, Hilkiyahu [my portion is Yehovah] the priest has delivered me a book. And Shafan [coney] read it before the king.
11And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent his clothes.
12And the king commanded Hilkiyahu [my portion is Yehovah] the priest, and Achikam [my brother has arisen] the son of Shafan [coney], and ‘Akhbor [mouse] the son of Mikhayah [who is like God?], and Shafan [coney] the scribe, and ‘Asayah [made by Yehovah] a servant of the king’s, saying,
13Go you2f, enquire of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) for me, and for the people, and for all Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised], concerning the words of this book that is found: for great [is] the wrath of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not listened unto the words of this book, to do according unto all that which is written concerning us.
14So Hilkiyahu [my portion is Yehovah] the priest, and Achikam [my brother has arisen], and ‘Akhbor [mouse], and Shafan [coney], and ‘Asayah [made by Yehovah], went unto Huldah [weasel] the prophetess, the wife of Shalum [retribution] the son of Tikvah [hope], the son of Harchas [very poor], keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] in the college;) and they communed with her.
15And she said unto them, Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], Tell the man that sent you to me,
16Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, [even] all the words of the book which the king of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] has read:
17Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
18But to the king of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] which sent you to enquire of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), thus shall you2f say to him, Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], [As touching] the words which youi have heard;
19Because youri heart was tender, and youi have humbled yourself before the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), when youi heard what I spoke against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have rent youri clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard [youi], says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
20Behold therefore, I will gather youi unto youri fathers, and youi shall be gathered into youri grave in peace; and youri eyes shall not see all the evil which I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.
