34:2 And he did [H6213] [that which was] right [H3477] in the sight [H5869] of the LORD [H3068] , and walked [H3212] in the ways [H1870] of David [H1732] his father [H1] , and declined [H5493] [neither] to the right hand [H3225] , nor to the left [H8040] .
34:3 For in the eighth [H8083] year [H8141] of his reign [H4427] , while he was yet young [H5288] , he began [H2490] to seek [H1875] after the God [H430] of David [H1732] his father [H1] : and in the twelfth [H8147] [H6240] year [H8141] he began [H2490] to purge [H2891] Judah [H3063] and Jerusalem [H3389] from the high places [H1116] , and the groves [H842] , and the carved images [H6456] , and the molten images [H4541] .

34:9 And when they came [H935] to Hilkiah [H2518] the high [H1419] priest [H3548] , they delivered [H5414] the money [H3701] that was brought [H935] into the house [H1004] of God [H430] , which the Levites [H3881] that kept [H8104] the doors [H5592] had gathered [H622] of the hand [H3027] of Manasseh [H4519] and Ephraim [H669] , and of all the remnant [H7611] of Israel [H3478] , and of all Judah [H3063] and Benjamin [H1144] ; and they returned [H7725] [H3427] to Jerusalem [H3389] .
34:10 And they put [H5414] [it] in the hand [H3027] of the workmen [H6213] [H4399] that had the oversight [H6485] of the house [H1004] of the LORD [H3068] , and they gave [H5414] it to the workmen [H6213] [H4399] that wrought [H6213] in the house [H1004] of the LORD [H3068] , to repair [H918] and amend [H2388] the house [H1004] :
34:11 Even to the artificers [H2796] and builders [H1129] gave [H5414] they [it], to buy [H7069] hewn [H4274] stone [H68] , and timber [H6086] for couplings [H4226] , and to floor [H7136] the houses [H1004] which the kings [H4428] of Judah [H3063] had destroyed [H7843] .(to floor: or, to rafter)
34:12 And the men [H582] did [H6213] the work [H4399] faithfully [H530] : and the overseers [H5329] of them [were] Jahath [H3189] and Obadiah [H5662] , the Levites [H3881] , of the sons [H1121] of Merari [H4847] ; and Zechariah [H2148] and Meshullam [H4918] , of the sons of the Kohathites [H6956] , to set [it] forward [H6485] ; and [other of] the Levites [H3881] , all that could skill [H995] of instruments [H3627] of musick [H7892] .
34:13 Also [they were] over the bearers of burdens [H5449] , and [were] overseers [H5329] of all that wrought [H6213] the work [H4399] in any manner of service [H5656] : and of the Levites [H3881] [there were] scribes [H5608] , and officers [H7860] , and porters [H7778] .
34:14 And when they brought out [H3318] the money [H3701] that was brought into [H935] the house [H1004] of the LORD [H3068] , Hilkiah [H2518] the priest [H3548] found [H4672] a book [H5612] of the law [H8451] of the LORD [H3068] [given] by [H3027] Moses [H4872] .(by: Heb. by the hand of)
34:15 And Hilkiah [H2518] answered [H6030] and said [H559] to Shaphan [H8227] the scribe [H5608] , I have found [H4672] the book [H5612] of the law [H8451] in the house [H1004] of the LORD [H3068] . And Hilkiah [H2518] delivered [H5414] the book [H5612] to Shaphan [H8227] .
34:16 And Shaphan [H8227] carried [H935] the book [H5612] to the king [H4428] , and brought [H7725] the king [H4428] word [H1697] back [H7725] again, saying [H559] , All that was committed [H5414] to [H3027] thy servants [H5650] , they do [H6213] [it].(to thy: Heb. to the hand of, etc)
34:17 And they have gathered together [H5413] the money [H3701] that was found [H4672] in the house [H1004] of the LORD [H3068] , and have delivered [H5414] it into the hand [H3027] of the overseers [H6485] , and to the hand [H3027] of the workmen [H6213] [H4399] .(gathered together: Heb. poured out, or, melted)
34:18 Then Shaphan [H8227] the scribe [H5608] told [H5046] the king [H4428] , saying [H559] , Hilkiah [H2518] the priest [H3548] hath given [H5414] me a book [H5612] . And Shaphan [H8227] read [H7121] it before [H6440] the king [H4428] .(it: Heb. in it)
34:19 And it came to pass, when the king [H4428] had heard [H8085] the words [H1697] of the law [H8451] , that he rent [H7167] his clothes [H899] .
34:20 And the king [H4428] commanded [H6680] Hilkiah [H2518] , and Ahikam [H296] the son [H1121] of Shaphan [H8227] , and Abdon [H5658] the son [H1121] of Micah [H4318] , and Shaphan [H8227] the scribe [H5608] , and Asaiah [H6222] a servant [H5650] of the king's [H4428] , saying [H559] ,(Abdon: or, Achbor)
34:21 Go [H3212] , enquire [H1875] of the LORD [H3068] for me, and for them that are left [H7604] in Israel [H3478] and in Judah [H3063] , concerning the words [H1697] of the book [H5612] that is found [H4672] : for great [H1419] [is] the wrath [H2534] of the LORD [H3068] that is poured out [H5413] upon us, because our fathers [H1] have not kept [H8104] the word [H1697] of the LORD [H3068] , to do [H6213] after all that is written [H3789] in this book [H5612] .
34:22 And Hilkiah [H2518] , and [they] that the king [H4428] [had appointed], went [H3212] to Huldah [H2468] the prophetess [H5031] , the wife [H802] of Shallum [H7967] the son [H1121] of Tikvath [H8616] [H8445] , the son [H1121] of Hasrah [H2641] , keeper [H8104] of the wardrobe [H899] ; (now she dwelt [H3427] in Jerusalem [H3389] in the college [H4932] :) and they spake [H1696] to her to that [effect].(Hasrah: or, Harhas, 2.kings.22.14.)(wardrobe: Heb. garments)(in the college: or, in the school, or, in the second part)
34:23 And she answered [H559] them, Thus saith [H559] the LORD [H3068] God [H430] of Israel [H3478] , Tell [H559] ye the man [H376] that sent [H7971] you to me,
34:24 Thus saith [H559] the LORD [H3068] , Behold, I will bring [H935] evil [H7451] upon this place [H4725] , and upon the inhabitants [H3427] thereof, [even] all the curses [H423] that are written [H3789] in the book [H5612] which they have read [H7121] before [H6440] the king [H4428] of Judah [H3063] :
34:25 Because they have forsaken [H5800] me, and have burned incense [H6999] [H6999] unto other [H312] gods [H430] , that they might provoke me to anger [H3707] with all the works [H4639] of their hands [H3027] ; therefore my wrath [H2534] shall be poured out [H5413] upon this place [H4725] , and shall not be quenched [H3518] .
34:26 And as for [H413] the king [H4428] of Judah [H3063] , who sent [H7971] you to enquire [H1875] of the LORD [H3068] , so shall ye say [H559] unto him, Thus saith [H559] the LORD [H3068] God [H430] of Israel [H3478] [concerning] the words [H1697] which thou hast heard [H8085] ;
34:27 Because thine heart [H3824] was tender [H7401] , and thou didst humble [H3665] thyself before [H6440] God [H430] , when thou heardest [H8085] his words [H1697] against this place [H4725] , and against the inhabitants [H3427] thereof, and humbledst [H3665] thyself before [H6440] me, and didst rend [H7167] thy clothes [H899] , and weep [H1058] before [H6440] me; I have even heard [H8085] [thee] also, saith [H5002] the LORD [H3068] .
34:28 Behold, I will gather [H622] thee to thy fathers [H1] , and thou shalt be gathered [H622] to thy grave [H6913] in peace [H7965] , neither shall thine eyes [H5869] see [H7200] all the evil [H7451] that I will bring [H935] upon this place [H4725] , and upon the inhabitants [H3427] of the same. So they brought [H7725] the king [H4428] word [H1697] again [H7725] .
34:29 Then the king [H4428] sent [H7971] and gathered together [H622] all the elders [H2205] of Judah [H3063] and Jerusalem [H3389] .
34:30 And the king [H4428] went up [H5927] into the house [H1004] of the LORD [H3068] , and all the men [H376] of Judah [H3063] , and the inhabitants [H3427] of Jerusalem [H3389] , and the priests [H3548] , and the Levites [H3881] , and all the people [H5971] , great [H1419] and small [H6996] : and he read [H7121] in their ears [H241] all the words [H1697] of the book [H5612] of the covenant [H1285] that was found [H4672] in the house [H1004] of the LORD [H3068] .(great: Heb. from great even to small)
34:31 And the king [H4428] stood [H5975] in his place [H5977] , and made [H3772] a covenant [H1285] before [H6440] the LORD [H3068] , to walk [H3212] after [H310] the LORD [H3068] , and to keep [H8104] his commandments [H4687] , and his testimonies [H5715] , and his statutes [H2706] , with all his heart [H3824] , and with all his soul [H5315] , to perform [H6213] the words [H1697] of the covenant [H1285] which are written [H3789] in this book [H5612] .
34:32 And he caused all that were present [H4672] in Jerusalem [H3389] and Benjamin [H1144] to stand [H5975] [to it]. And the inhabitants [H3427] of Jerusalem [H3389] did [H6213] according to the covenant [H1285] of God [H430] , the God [H430] of their fathers [H1] .(present: Heb. found)
34:33 And Josiah [H2977] took away [H5493] all the abominations [H8441] out of all the countries [H776] that [pertained] to the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] , and made all that were present [H4672] in Israel [H3478] to serve [H5647] , [even] to serve [H5647] the LORD [H3068] their God [H430] . [And] all his days [H3117] they departed [H5493] not from following [H310] the LORD [H3068] , the God [H430] of their fathers [H1] .(present: Heb. found)(from: Heb. from after)
