18 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: 19 You displayed a sensitive spirit and humbled yourself before the LORD when you heard how I intended to make this place and its residents into an appalling example of an accursed people. You tore your clothes and wept before me, and I have heard you,' says the LORD. 20 Therefore I will allow you to die and be buried in peace. You will not have to witness all the disaster I will bring on this place.'|'| Then they reported back to the king. 2 Kings 22:18-20, New English Translation.
